Wonderful

As most things in life which can be characterized as wonderful, tonight's mild, unseasonal weather brought to mind images of you and I walking hand-in-hand through the lovelier neighborhoods in town. We would see little shops and curious things along the way and indulge our intrigue without care. We would give meaning to every experience simply by being together. Our light, ignited by our mere proximity to one another, can illuminate seemingly dull moments. We walk as though there is no tomorrow because indeed, our rapture defies time. Each moment spent together could serve as a beautiful end if ever an end must come. As much as we'd like to go on sharing such moments into eternity, there's no harm in savoring those which we are fortunate enough to have presently.

Being that I could not enjoy this evening in your company, I happily took the opportunity to walk about on my own. All the while thinking of you, the strangely warm air seemed to accompany me in your stead. Just as though you were there, I savored each breath, each image, each sound. Colored by your memory, the world can only be a place of unending beauty.

Good night, my love.
