~HOW WONDERFUL LIFE IS~
*Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
You're My Survival, You're My Living Proof
My love is alive and not dead*
He isn't dead. He isn't gone. He came back. 2 outs...I guess third time is the charm.
He loves me.
Michael Vaughn loves me.
The rain is still pouring against the windows, but now it is not the soundtrack of my tumultuous being. It is cleansing rain that washes away the past. The morning will come bright and fresh. The howling wind and the rustling trees make our place in the bed even more comforting. His arms are wrapped protectively around me and he's sleeping so peacefully. I've never seen him so carefree. I feel carefree. I feel warm and safe within his embrace.
*The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth*
I wish he would open his eyes, though I love to see him sleep.
Those emerald green eyes that haunted me for the month I thought I would never see them again, now have me captivated. They are so deep, and they peer at me with so much love it's agonizing, crushing, but wonderful.
Hours ago I wanted to die. I wanted to disappear, never see anyone again. I feel like laughing and crying all at the same time and my emotions are rushing through me like tidal waves.
Unknowingly I begin to cry.
*I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
I'll Be your love suicide
I'll Be better when I'm older
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life*
"Syd? Are you crying?"
"No." I feel the dampness on my cheek. "Yes."
"What's wrong?"
"Can we stay like this forever?"
"Well, my arm might fall asleep but we can try."
I laugh, but then more tears sting my eyes.
"Syd? Seriously, what's wrong sweetheart?"
"What if it's just a dream...like the other times? What if we wake up tomorrow morning and it's over? What if we can't ever be together? I just want this to last forever. I don't ever want to leave your side."
He strokes my hair gently.
"I want this to last forever too Syd. But you know what? Then we wouldn't get to wake up every single morning and realize it's not a dream. And I want that too. We'll make it. I promise you."
"I'm scared."
"I am too."
He pulls me closer against him and kisses my head.
"But I love you too much to let anything come between us. Look how much we've defeated. Do you really think a little thing like SD-6 is going to stand in our way?"
His words soothe me. He's so confident. So sure. I'm still terrified that I'll wake up from this dream, but I will cling to his promises.
