One Classic Dream
Whenever I stepped out into the open reflection of God's brilliant painting, I would stand in awe and hold my breath for it was a truly bewildering sight. While gracefully leaning over the egg-shaped poolside, I would gently stroke the passive waters, feeling their cool warmth envelope my hand. Yet, the dark, murky and ironically lucid water complimented the crystal cast of an open night. Floating ax1 the soothing waters and gazing into the night, each star was like a diamond suspended in mid-air. Whenever I glanced at the night sky suspended by the waters, I would look at my own reflection and try to find just a trace of a diamond in my heart - a diamond that signified just one thing, love... Much as I do remember about my quiet and peaceful moments watching the stars glisten and flicker across the velvet curtains of the night, I have never been able to recall what happened after the night's gazing.

Those inviting arms gently wound themselves around my waist and held me close. I had placed my expectations too high upon this lonely star, for what could it do? I rubbed my face with my numbed hands and cried again. The wind let out a giant blow jolting me backwards, and by the power of that gust, I gazed up into the starlights again.

There was no star that came to accompany my lonely star, and there was no love in my heart.
