Forever Princess


A small wrinkle in time being stretched into an endless dream which only allows me to feel completely whole with her beside me. To close my eyes to remember is like asking the soul to forever sleep; to stand alone in a blacken world. Am I truly found or just lost on a journey which never ends?

Her childlike laughter shatters the silence that has echoed through a caverness heart, protected by steel curtains and iron walls. This forced barrier was broken with tender touches of fragile fingers and through the heart of an angel. Her essence is only matched in beauty by one natural thing on earth, the evening sunset. Heat of passion is quickly dispersed through the placid azure waters of the sea painted as if by mistake by tear-streaked make-up of a mystical purple sky. Her kiss would make a rose blossom in the dead of a cold winter's night, which tastes like the sweetness of a fresh ripened Georgia peach.

In all ways to say I love you her best way is just a simple kiss, a simple hug, a simple smile, and a cuddle motion to wrap my arms about her delicate shoulders drawing her closer to my heart and her safety blanket.

Drifting off slowly into the land of princess dreams of perfection and happily ever-after, she is all to perfect as I close my eyes shut whispering the final “I love you” in her ear to close the evening away.
