A Reason For Being Thankful

She sets free the longtime prisoner from his entombment. Placed there long ago by an evil tyrant. He did not want to see his inner child hurt any longer by the cruelty found in the world. Sealing him in this musty tomb with the greatest of intentions.

His ghastly shackles cast away with a single act of kindness. The light pains his eyes, but she leads him back into the light for the entire world to see. Taking him into her caring bosom, she nurses him slowly back to health. He finds safety and comfort in her care.

Soft whispers and kind words ease the pain from old wounds. The scars remain upon him, yet he finally resembles the person he once was again. A person he thought was lost long ago, yet she somehow drew him out again.

For her acts of kindness, he would do anything within his power. The tools given to him by birth and through diligent practice are hers for the taking. He tries to help her in everyway possible on a daily basis. His comfort comes at a distant second to her happiness.

Not a day goes by that he is not thankful for her presence. He feels so very alive when he is around her. She marks the best thing that has happened to him in a long time. Her presence alone forces him to believe that there must be such a thing as karma, and she is his reward for always trying to help others.

His only wish for the upcoming year is that it is one filled with her presence. It marks the first year in a long time for which he has looked forward to its arrival. The dawn of the new year is closing in upon him, and he finally has a reason to celebrate its passing and be thankful.

Impossible Dream

He has unknowingly fell under her spell. Cast upon him by a flash of the most beautiful hazel eyes in existence. The blood ebbs and flows through his veins as his heart beats increasingly faster. His body responds accordingly and the sweat begins to accumulate on his palms. His mind races and finds it hard to concentrate on anything.

He wants nothing in this world more than to hold her body close to his and kiss her lips. To breathe in deeply and smell the sweet scent of her hair. The unrelenting desire to get closer to her and feel the warmth from her body. The feeling overcomes him every time he is in her presence. The proximity between them directly proportional to the happiness he experiences.

He hates the idea of jealousy, but he cannot help but feel it when other men command her attention and distract her from him. To be the object of her affection and desires is the only thing he can think of at the moment. He struggles to garner her attention with his futile amusements. Not a day passes without him trying to bring a smile to her face and a few seconds of joy to her mind. Her happiness becomes his sole purpose.

The reality of the situation finally commands his attention and his heart sinks in his chest. A sadness overcomes that would bring a weaker man to tears. He knows that such a thing is impossible and that there is no future for such ideas. To think of such a thing is nothing more than a fantasy that can never be realized. An impossible dream created by the mind of a romantic fool which will never exist.

He closes his eyes briefly and dreams of her as he falls asleep. If this is the only realm where they may be together, then he wishes he could stay asleep forever. However, he knows that this is impossible, but he finds comfort in knowing that they can be together each time he closes his eyes.

Unique

She is the friend I have sought out throughout the course of my brief lifetime. I found in her a friend that I did not think possible to exist except in books of fantasy. A kindred spirit and kind soul who never ceases to amaze me with the warmth and capacity of her heart.

She has given me the courage to unveil more of myself to the world than I ever thought possible. The only person in the entire world with which I find it comfortable sharing the entirety of my person. Finding comfort enough within her presence enough to share all my heart, mind, and soul.

I could search for an eternity and never find someone that could even come close. Millions and millions of hours would never turn up another individual with such a warming smile or wonderful heart. I shall not even attempt such a search for it would inherently be in vain.
