All But One...

I held her hand.
My words made strangers weep, but those closest didn't flinch. I didn't wonder why, the clouds told me better stories. 
The snow said you were looking for me so I waited in the park all day, you weren't there but I could feel you all around, in everything.
The walk back was long, my calves started to cramp, the wind pushed me closer and when I finally touched the door it hugged me back, warm like home. Stars watched me undress through open blinds, as the colours of twilight still lingered in the sky, an unfinished story. I lay down and waited for my mind to wander, it took but an hour for me to fall happily into our world.
Droplets of pure beauty hurt my eyes. The warm rain kissed me all over, grass up to my knees was soft like a blanket. My mind was free here, my thoughts couldn't hurt me.
I saw you across the lake bathing in moonlight, before you started to walk over I was already there, crushing the space between us. As our lips met we became a part of each other, making each half of our world real.
The air was sweet to breathe, the breeze didn't wait long to hug me, we'd barely met. 
The sky was always star-y, even in daylight and the moon never left us in the dark. Lone trees didn't cry over empty forests because know one took them away.
You had everything you needed, a Shepard, a priest, a warrior and a dream.
