The Ribbon

Their romance was that of a young girl's dream; Love letters, candlelight, tenderness and many midnight rendezvous. Swooning under the moonlight, she tied their dreams, side by side amongst the stars.

Their heads had been in the clouds, and her heart in his hand, but their feet were well planted. They knew that love had more to do with letting go, and moments like this of holding on.

…and as the moon passed around the world a thousand times, and the days came tumbling one after another, attempting to tarnish their glow. That was when she took his hand and lead him under the midnight sky. She put his hand next to her breast, untied the ribbons from the stars, believing that they would become roots.

    At first I thought it was an extension of the Mimi romance and I almost swooned…then I snaped back to reality and noticed you were writing to the charm. I love a good backstory, even when it’s fictional. I often go to the local art museum and write backstory about paintings that touch me there. It’s a lovely way to combine art and writing.

  8. Happy Anniversary?
