Third Place

A Kiss In The Dark

 

He heard her weeping from another realm,
and he was determined that he would time travel;
all he knew of his life began to unravel,
and no matter the dangers he would journey to her world.
On earth Anna's thoughts day and night overwhelm,
he finds her in the garden of a home among the blooms;
later he followed her through all the elegant rooms,
and finally in her room she prepares for bed with care.
But, she hesitates as a wispy fog fills the air,
in the dark he strokes her long raven hair and holds her close;
she feels him and although she cannot see him . . . he is her rose.
And in that moment their love unfurled,
then, with a kiss in the dark and wrapped in love they disappear
and all that Anna leaves in this earthly world is a tear.
