__A vision __
 * < The visions are slowly fading, my love, and though I cannot hide, I weep into a moon lithe night until a stranger inquires why.

"Oh stranger," I proclaim to him, "I'm all alone and scared. No one’s here to shelter me, no one seems to care."

The stranger knelt down by my side and placed a gentle hand, upon my cheek, to where it rests, I quietly inquired why.

He only smiled at me and brushed away my tears, while a single light emerged from us, seemingly brighter than the stars' stare.

"Because, my love," he said at last, "I think your beauty fair. You stole my heart with crystal tears and when I only wished a glare."

"But now, my love," he went on to say, "I wish a gentle kiss. For your lips seem like satin and easily tantalized my frail, gullible heart, into loving such a delicate flower, such as the ones around you tonight."

I look down blushing but inside I was not so easily swoon, so many a men has told me this, why should he have won so soon?

I love you more than life and I only wish to show my love, in hopes, it be returned tonight."

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">I quickly looked to the flowers, where my pale skin stood out among the orchids, listening to the words he spoke but scared on how to feel.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">What was really happening? Were they teasing me again? Or did he just take pity, after the words that I had said?

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">Suddenly I felt his hand, move down to my chin; he lovingly lifted my head, to see his dewy blue eyes and opal white grin.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">"Do you accept these words, my love?" he asked with silent grace and poise.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">"I'm scared on what to say to you...what if this is all a trick? I could have fallen asleep under the oak tree where the orchids always live."

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">He only looked into my eyes and gave a gentle grin, "I promise you, my love. I will come back again."

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">Sadly, my eyes flickered open, to see the moon above.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">I had fallen asleep and only dreamt, I met him by this pond.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">Tears flew down my cheeks as they caused ripples in the water, when suddenly I heard a voice softly inquire.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">I quickly turned to see a man, far from a stranger to me.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">A man with dewy blue eyes, who would have asked, "Why are you not glaring at me?"

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">"Oh Edwin," I exclaimed to him, in sorrow but in glee, "I'm all alone and scared. No one’s here to shelter me, no one seems to care." ||
