to travel without a star chart

there is something in her eyes that make me wonder

seconds before she looks away

I can read the secrets of the stars

see the sun blushing her cheek

behind the curtain of blond hair 

are bright red lips

they promised me more than the sky

her scent on my hands

and the memory of her body against mine

fills me with wonder

a traveler through a lonely black ocean

her laughter has stolen my heart

and I travel towards uncertainty

This is so poignant to me at this time for reasons I will not bore you with. A lovely piece as always Yheela, Intellegent, and thought provoking and well scripted.

[Yheela]

Thank you!
It's a translation so I was a little worried it might not work as well in English as in Swedish.
I like to be a thought provoking, sometimes. ^_^

[Yheela]

And you should know that I'm not easily bored. ^_^
