There Is Nothing . . .

Though tomorrow
was this unknown moment
set so far off in the distance
that only time understood when it would really be
something about now
made it seem real
as if it were happening to me
as if it were happening within me

It felt
as if it were this perfect moment
where the stars were aligned across the night sky
and slowly
one by one
they began to decorate the darkness
with a light as gentle as a butterfly’s kiss
until the world
was still
and waiting
with bated breath for the sun to rise

In my dreams
I could feel tomorrow’s warmth
reaching out for me
like golden rays of brilliance
stretching
and discovering
secrets
kept silent by the night
my heartbeat echoes with anticipation
because I know
that though tomorrow
was this unknown moment
set so far off in the distance
that only time understood when it would come to be
there is nothing more beautiful than waking up
next to you

Beautiful, I so enjoy your writing

Totally. What she said.
