Moment of Bliss

A long stairway came into view, as the winds hummed a silent tune. He watched the stillness as it seduced him. Something beautiful was about to happen. A long orchestra appeared on one side and started playing a harmony. That's when she walked down the staircase with a smile on her face. Her blue gown gleaming under the moon light.

He went up to the staircase, held her hand and kissed it. Then held close to her as they began dancing the night away. Like two universes were finally complete. Swaying from side to side, not feeling like two people, but a single soul in the moment of bliss. A beautiful moment like this, had waited for a long time which made it even more sweet.

Suddenly she stopped swaying with him. Pulled herself back and began walking the staircase again. The music was fading away making him hear her sobs. She reached the top of the staircase and looked back at him. In a flash, the staircase turned into an old wall. He turned back to see long iron bars in front of him.

A tear rolled down his cheek.

He was here, but a part of him was still with her.
