In a perfect world.....

Dans un monde parfait........

In a perfect world, I could pick up the phone and tell you that I miss you. In a perfect world I could ask you to be my dinner companion. I could pick you up for a night out. A night out where 2 people can just live, express and love.... In a perfect world I could look across a candle lit table in a smoke filled room while some soulful pianist poured her heart out echoing how we felt and tell you....tell you the truth and have that be enough.(In a perfect world, I wouldn't have to keep saying in a perfect world)

In a perfect world, our dinner would never find its way into our mouths as we pushed it from one side of the plate 2 the other, too caught up in the moment, too caught up in eachother 2 eat. A sip of wine would be all I would need to summon the courage to wrap my heart in a bow and hand in over to you. In a perfect world you would blush.. you would look down and then look right in my eyes and we would know......We would sit in comfortable silence swimming in the moment looking at eachother through the steam rising from our jasmine tea. Slowly our hands would make there way into eachothers and we would know.......

In a perfect world (which I so wish it was), I would be a gentleman and when we stood from the table I would help you on with your coat, more to steal a hug than anything else. We'd pause taking it all in ......committing it to memory. I'd look away and...and you would know..... We would walk arm in arm in a perfect world. You'd shiver, I'd ask if you were cold? You'd say no. I'd give you my scarf anyway. Time wouldn't exist. There would be no pressure, no worries only contentment.......deep satisfaction a feeling of being complete. In a perfect world, the snow would start to fall, pure and beautiful. Just cold enough for us to pull eachother a little closer as we wondered through the night. I would turn to you as the snow fell on us wiping the occassional snowflake from your eyes.....your eyes.... I would softly kiss your red cheaks and rub your hands to try and warm them.

In a perfect world we would eventually find our way inside. Flames would be flickering and we would know.........we would share with eachother and take what the other was offering in this perfect world. Words would be unnecessary we would know......We would lay in eachothers arms, warm and free. In a perfect world our eyes would close as we embraced eachother.....I would open my eyes just to catch one last glimpse of you in this perfect world and you would still be looking at me.....I would say I wished tomorrow would never come, that we could just live in this moment, melting into one another. We would fall asleep kissing eachother softly. In a perfect world I would awake opening my eyes to you and you would already be looking at me and we would know. We would just know.................
