Status: Be my lover, my lady river
You and I
It's a jolly holiday with you
We walked hand in hand, and your presence placed a welcomed shadow over my small form, shielding me from the aching sun. Car's drove by but I didn't listen to them, I simply listened to your voice and the beat of your heart that I could hear from here. your fingers felt rough in my hand and I smiled.
The streets of downtown felt quaint and nice as if we were in an alternate universe in the 50's. I imagined as you talked, myself as Scarlett and you as Rhett, or maybe Mary Poppins and Bert, or Holly go lightly and her lover. My dress would fit me nicely and you would look dashing. We would be those wanderer's in the movies that you see walking by on a nice day, parasol in hand, happy smiles and teasing remarks.
I continue walking and ignore the ache in my feet. I see our reflection in one of the nearby windows and I catch my breath for a moment, in such utter happiness. The reflection looks....right. You and me. It just works.
I reluctantly let go of your hand as I reach my destination and we say goodbye's, but our reflection stays perfectly painted in my mind, as if Van Gough himself was on my side.
