One thousand and one nights...

I want to be Scheherazade…telling tales to my lover into the night…weaving a tapestry – a mosaic to honour the passion between us; to keep the ‘wolves’ of mediocrity and mistrust at bay…

I want to go to sleep in loving arms, laughing and making love. I want to wake up every morning the same, and I NEVER want to take anything for granted...

I want time. Time well spent. Time alone; Time with family; Time to just laze around together; Time to work with one another; Time that we never seem to have...

I want the faerie tale; the happy ending; the lifetime-after-lifetime

Sometimes I wonder, is it asking too much? Do I expect too much? Am I reaching for castles in the clouds? Chasing dreams that will evaporate, never becoming a reality..

Yet, still...I want it all...

I'm a writer at heart dear. I made up the Happily Ever After and the cards: Lovers & The ex.

I don't want to make up the story, I want to live the story and see how it turns out.
