A single raindrop …
The only remain of
a fairytale that could
never be…
Yet both could still feel
the golden thread bonding
their souls for eternity
She could have walked
through the infinite darkness
just to be allowed one fleeting
instant to linger her fingers
on a cheek, so elegant, so soft …
that it left an indelible
crimson sear on her heart
Yet she smiles at the beauty
of the world … her world …
as she watches the crashing waves
pummeling the reefs at a distance,
so thankful of having known
such grace … and still hold
its resplendence in every breath
of her sentient being …
