Within the melodic interludes
between the verses of words falling
against her disarmed sentiments,
she fell into slight slumber beneath
the cold caress of wind and a velvety dark sky
with the thoughts of reliance and solace
replaying in her
mind.

Beneath the amber tinted heavens,
amidst the quietest of fields,
amongst the silence of gentle breezes –
Their first meeting replayed in its
entire glamour, the feelings
as distinct.

She spoke, her words flowing onto the
boulevard teeming with murmurs of
her breath, the sole thing she
wished for against the fleeting moments of
a proclaimed shooting star,
a wish made before the puff of candles,
a thought she held tightly within
her grasp.

The courage, it had found her in her dreams –
a sole characteristic,
a certain ability which
spelled out for her clearly within the
gaps amongst the green grass that
she was a different person altogether

“Could a parallel universe come
into existence?”
Her thoughts treaded wearily,
breaching her regulations as they waded
through the murky grey waters,
their legs ticklish from the touch of
playful fishes and their supple beauty –
Parallel universes intrigued her,
the thought menacing yet
fascinating.

Considerations were placed,
her mind as befuddled as before –
another her,
a less timid mouse,
a sanguine attitude,
a worthy partner.

If they had lived in the fairytale,
in the childish thoughts of a
though foolish yet it was the finest –
a stronger girl,
a better standard,
perhaps a relatively matching soul
for the brown hue that hid under the
comfort of his black pearl hair.
