She lay peacefully as the shimmering rays of sunlight streamed through the white lace curtains into a bedroom overlooking the deep blue sea. Her skin felt like silk on the 1500 thread count ivory Egyptian cotton sheets. Her hair had come undone and long black tendrils grazed her face. She seemed so at peace with herself and the rest of the world. He stood outside her window watching her sleep and told himself how he had never seen anything more exquisite or irresistible.
But she would always be a mirage. A longing that would never be fulfilled....He tried really hard to look away but her face was so mesmerizing that it kept him captivated. She always had that effect on people. In all the years he'd known her, she would walk into a room and it would instantly light up. She was energy, she was charisma, she was grace and she was joy. She was smart and witty and kind. But above all she was just a heartbeat away from being his for life.

On that thought, he heard a loud beeping noise and woke up to his alarm going off. Even though it wasn't meant to be, he woke up each morning wondering what it would have been like to wake up to her beautiful smile and know that she would be by his side.....She was a dream, she was a wish, she was a fantasy :)
-So long...
