Romance

Is this the right address?

Somebody in the golden window

notices your dog, who

ran ahead.

The door opens right before I

arrive.

Happy faces

call my name, though

we have not met.

the tree, bauble, ribbon

dog jumping

rustling above your head

Where is the sun when I stand in the rain?
I search for my glove on the Roses Way
a single cloud, I have no say?
Kept warm and dried by the winds of May.

Or another time
walked up to me, a gurl I had never seen.
She kissed my cheek, a snickering tree
Her dare that I have been

Ma’s neighbor friend, some friend to all
hugged me as she cried.
Later on, a cake, someone’s gift of balm
we both carried in the night.

Dark waters swirled around Ceonbura as she fought to rise to the surface and escape into the air. She did not know which way was up, only that whichever way she tried to move the water pushed and dragged her in a different direction. Tossed about in the darkness, wishing she had learnt to swim better than she had, she eventually gave up, letting the current take her wherever it wished. In that moment beams of light filtered through the water and a figure appeared before her, reaching out both hands to cup her cheeks.

A year. It had been a year since the poem Eiragerd had written for her own self. Somehow, again, this date managed to surprise her. Yes, she'd had further growth and goodness in the year between.
But somehow, on the very day she thought would pain her again, she was given unexpected blessing.

A/N: And thus comes to end a five-parter story that I enjoyed writing immensely. Thank you to everyone who gave some time of their day to read this and I hope it was as enjoyable to read as it was for me to write and plan in my head. If there's any feedback you'd like to leave feel free to PM over the mail system. The next story is either something concerning my Elf or takes place a decade back into Alex's past.

A/N: Feedback is always welcome. :) Hope you enjoy reading!
