Hi, hope this is in the right place. It's not lovey lovey stuff. But it's, Romancy."
Oh, Evelyn. Why? That's what i ask. You never gave me an answer.
Our love is...Was like a fiery red rose. Beautiful, yet painful when handled incorrectly. And to quote a Michael Jackson lyric, "Like a comet blazing 'cross the evening sky....Gone Too Soon." Our marriage was sublime, but gone too soon.
Remember the warmth of the evening when we first met , the sun setting from behind me, it was like a 1000 little radiators on my back. The swollen circle of light in the clear blue sky our only witness. Just me and you, you and me. I thought it was forever. But maybe it was forever only in my dreams.
When we embraced i could feel your heart hammering like a hummingbirds wings. It was a gently embrace, perhaps i thought you were as fragile as an actual hummingbird? Certainly in your mind you were.
We were so warm.
Why are you so cold now?
Your voice, silky and seductive voice whispered in my ear. I pulled back.Do you remember, so i could see your angelic face. Warm supple inviting red lips and your blue eyes, blue as the clear sky in the still setting sun not a cloud in sight. But.
Why are your eyes so cloudy now?
I had lifted my hand to caress your plump cheek, you had a bashful smile on your face (a you want me, come get me smile. Oh, how i hated that in the coming years)
You took my hand, took me by surprise, and plucked it gracefully, casually in fact as if you were picking a ripened orange from a tree. And placed my hand, no moldedit over your firm right breast. Those were the days, when our love was a raging bonfire and not just a flickering ember. An ember that i lonely tried to maintain, but you were like a fire engine. Continuously, coming and extinguishing my flame.
Our love blossomed, growing slowly like one of your wattles in the front garden. But alas, like your tree. I was cut down, burned, cheated out of a life and a home.
Evelyn, everyone's time comes eventually i suppose.
Our marriage was spectacular, wouldn't you say? No kids, no friends and no life. Of course, I'm speaking about my side of the marriage. Yours was alright, especially in the latter years.
Where's your kid now, Evelyn. With daddy?
We were so open and free. No secrets then.
No more secrets now Evelyn. Well just one. You know, just keep it between you and me. You were good at secrets, I'll give you that. And in bed.
Why don't you say something now Evelyn? Your silver tongue, that cut me more than a knife could ever do.
My blood was on your hands, you killed me Evelyn. All i knew was you, all i loved was you.
Do you love?
But now your blood is on my hands. A lot of your blood is on my hands, shirt, slacks and not to mention the walls. Your Hubby has a lot of work to do when he get's home.
My won't he miss, the bedroom antics. Oh, poor him.
Bye, Evelyn. Nice talking, we haven't had a face to face for so long.
Oh, your daughters home.
She's a sweet kid Evelyn. She looks like you. Beautiful.
I won't kiss you. Don't worry, don't cringe. Okay?
I'll use the back door.
I wouldn't be the first. Would I?
THE END.
