Someone asked me what it was like and all I could think to say was:
We slept in the sky.
I know every lover thinks so, but that doesn’t make the shine any less. Our adventures were ordinary but they were wonderful. We drank; we sang along, we made love outside. We stalked the wee hours – they were ours. We saw the dawn together and ignored the rest of the world.
Every couple has their golden age. Ours was just another. And now…
I know, you’re expecting me say ‘tired’, ‘bored’, ‘going through the motions’. Hell no. Now we can have something richer than romance. We can have wine. We can have the rest of time.
Let’s not surrender, except to each other. Be next to me, my beautiful love, and I will be next to you.
And then…even when it’s cloudy…we can still wake in stars.
