Dreamy good looks, devilish, or maybe divinely created,
I can't help but stare, to imagine myself wrapped in your arms,
Silky soft curls I long to touch,
Time stands still in your midst,
Rareest of treasures, I long to make you mine,
Anticipation rises as you step toward me, confident, so sure,
Closer and closer, I can't breathe.
Trembling, we're toe-to-toe, face-to-face, and suddenly,
Instinct takes over,
One body, one soul, two separate beings, perfectly joined,
Nearly 40 years later and you still distract me.
No Plus One
It's nearly one AM and I just got back from my third wedding of the four in this last month alone, and I have always been alone. I hide behind my camera to pretend to be useful, hide behind a safety net of skill set. So I do not have to confront the loneliness that is sleeping alone when everyone else seems to have a partner to crawl into bed with. I love the time spent with those who decided I was worth the 30-plus dollars per plate they decided to spend on me, and I do not need to have a partner on these occasions, but it would be nice to have someone notice, me. See when I am in the corner because they know I need time to recharge and to kiss me on the head until the time has come to leave. Maybe that's the problem about being a professional storyteller, I dream of something that isn't meant for me.

Beautifully written ❤️💯😊
Dear Ms. Misty ~ Fellow Legal Eagle, Ret. I could so relate to your "Sweltering Heat" - while reading your "Hard Crushin'" - it SO reminds me of my "Am I Choosing UP?" Although the story is way out of my Comfort Zone Wheelhouse you've inspired me to write it - Thank you for that - Please take a moment to peek - You will so relate!
