To Mitsuko

I'll drive home tonight from work with the sweet smell of your perfume enveloping my senses. The monotony of the bump bump in the pavement will hypnotize me into a dream of us dancing once again on the beaches of Mexico. The waves loud as they crash on the shores will drown out the world if only for a moment, that I may be alone, you and I, together again in my mind. I'll see your face with a bountiful smile and the moonlight will reflect a sun in your face. You'll be my light, you'll carry me through the night. My only fear is that the illusion will fade and I'll be jerked back into this world when I reach home! I'll grab my heart and squeeze tight to prevent it from staying in that lovely place, alone, without my body, with my light, Mitsuko.

I know darling that time has marched his sandstorms across the distance between us now, forever changing the landscape, molding it into his every whim. I know the details of which you speak are hidden by so many layers of silken earth. I know they are there, invisible but not forgotten. I know where each lies. Do not amuse yourself that I could not thrust my hands through these sands and reveal a thousand such details whose remembrance could be brushed and shaken clean. I had lost these details not by cause but by sanity or rather entrancement! For when I look into your face hence a moment passes but there is an eternity wherein! Time has passed behind my back while I pondered your wonders! Now awakened by your fury, my heart beats loudly once more! I've been reprise from my solemn queiscence--saved as always by you, my love, Mitsuko.
