(sorry for the length) Thirty thousand feet above, the clouds were fluffy white. My mind was a thinking of a friend, I'd wrote to day and night. While chatting on the internet, our lives seemed intertwined. I wondered how I'd act or be, and wondered what I'd find. We had agreed to share "one" beer, whilst in between my flights, and if nothing sparked between us, or we saw no flashing lights. Then we'd shake hands and walk away, return back to a life, a place we both resented, her husband and my wife. All was planned well in advance, I thought she might be sweet, and she thought I a gentleman, might just be worth a meet. Descending now down towards the strip, I couldn't hardly wait, I felt just like a teen again, out on his first blind date. Down to the ground and rolling, I thought of how she'd look, and trust me, all those thoughts I had, I could have wrote a book. But as I walked off of the plane, then passing through the gate, I saw her standing, waiting... that's when I knew my fate. Her long blond hair, her bright blue eyes, her face somewhat ablush, I just walked straight up to her, then felt emotion rush. I took her hand and said hello, "how very nice to meet you", and led her towards the lounge for beer, then asked "May I please seat you?" I was simply overwhelmed, her presence made me shiver, Her beauty was so striking, that my voice began to quiver. I told a joke to warm things up, and then I saw the SMILE, and something told me deep inside, that I'd be there a while. Oh God I begged inside my head, for once delay my flight, don't make me leave her loveliness, not least until tonight. We talked and talked and laughed a lot, until the beer was finished, strolled hand in hand down to my gate, my time all but diminished. I checked the board, my flight DELAYED, our God up in those clouds! I get to spend more time with her, although amongst the crowds. We leaned against a wall of glass, and that was our first kiss, our second, third, our fourth and fifth, lost count in total bliss. Although the people at my gate, must thought of us as fools, we didn't care in public there, we broke down all their rules. Back on my jet and buckled up, I tried to close my eyes, while speeding down the runway, lifting up into the skies. I knew I'd met my soulmate, and now what will I do? life forever changed today, because of someone new. There was no going backwards, I'd never be the same, I could not go on living, unless she wore my name, Although it meant much turmoil, attorneys and the lot, I'll fight for what I feel is right, and so I fought and fought. I lost it all, my dynasty, X took it all with spite, yet, little does X know today, I gave it with delight. For now I get to be with her, my soulmate and best friend, my life has gone from gray to gold, who say's we can't amend? For real Love's so much stronger, that it makes it all worthwhile, I live again, I'm breathing and.... each day I see that SMILE !!!!!! |
