DreamTraveler
Marie Kennedy
She has flown to a foreign place
looking out over the rooftop of a luxurious hotel
there to work.....had to go .........alone
was nervous at first.
She is rarely alone.
only when she sleeps,
or a few hours at a time.
Her work is done and went very well.
She is pleased with herself....smiling.
Warm breeze off of the ocean
blows across her face and makes her long hair
extend out like a golden frame
around her angelic face
Her eyes flash from a brown to gold
to black with desire.
Thinking how romantic it is here.
She was amused with her company,
but not like she would delight in his.
Her meetings had handsome men with deep voices
and accents ... they looked at her
not just "at" her but trying to see through her
She knew she was different than the other women attending
she knew they were looking too
Not just to be polite when they spoke to her ..but....
trying to see
her secret
what she
keeps safe
and saves for him
There was more than one offer to walk her back to her room
smiling she declined the invitations and went alone.
Prepared a bubble bath with the big glass doors opened in her
room
she lit candles..she brings them when she travels
makes her feel close to him.
Turned off all the lights.
If only she could "wish" him here, right now
She doesn't dry off rubbing lotion on her soft skin
she walks naked and dripping wet
to stand on the balcony.
The moon was full and lit up the sky to a sensual glow
Allowing the sky, the stars, the moon,
the ocean and the wind be part of her
and her part of them
She feels him with her now
The stars are his eyes.
The sky his strong arms.
The moon his heart
The ocean his thoughts ....
...and the wind his love
She lays on a lounge chair,
wrapped up in fluffy robe now.
Closes her eyes and thinks of his smile
his laugh
his smell
the fire in his eyes
and warmth in his touch
desire in her burning lips
wanting is not .. enough.
she sighs
Almost asleep and gets a chill
She opens her eyes and discovers her robe is undone.
and the shadow next to her
is His
