She was blinded to the truth as she felt his fingers stroking her face. He held her head still and her face between his hands and began licking her lips and feathering short kisses upon her willing face. He kissed her tears away, she was so overcome by her love for him. The one perfect rose was taken and velvety soft, run over his face. Gently, she began kissing his eyes, ears, neck and throat. She gazed at him, and he saw the glow and the warmth coming from her eyes washing over him as she gave him her all. She closed her eyes and melted into him as though they had been together forever.
She opened her eyes and stared into his and saw the travels and the roads taken in his life, saw how both of their lives led them to be together, for just then, and just now. As he looked into her eyes, he saw the joy of a woman who is truly loved for just then, and just now. His hand trembled as he smoothed her curls back from her face and gently he began stroking and caressing her neck. A fire began blazing between them. Slowly he began to kiss her ear and whisper how special she was and how much he wanted her.
She saw his power and knew that this was meant to be. She knew that at that moment in time she loved him with an intensity that was overwhelming.
How could she ever really tell him how she felt when all the cards were stacked against them ever being together for one night? The boat reverberated with the sounds of her shouts of joy and his of deliverance. Then slowly, the scented candles came back into focus and she realized that she had once more, made love to a ghost.
How sad to know that only in her dreams could she come to such fullfillment.....
