loveListening to: Blink 182- Dammit
Just something I wanted to share with you guys.. a little piece of prose I wrote for English last week:
I could feel the wind gracefully caressing the grass which I was lying on. The soft twittering of birds could be heard if you listened patiently and the graceful swaying of the trees gave me this liberating urge to suddenly sprout wings and fly into the beckoning sky. I was blind to the reality of this beauty. Only being able to embrace this moment partially by using the other four senses which was bestowed upon me, I had to puzzle out where I was.
The blindfold tied around my head was slowly but surely starting to tickle the shaft of my nose. As I reached for the piece of thread dangling down my face- a rough, firm hand immobilized it in it's action. It's perfectly formed fingers entertwined in mine and I could feel the sharp presence and steady breathing of another being close to me.
"Are you ready?" he asked softly in my ear, still entertwining my hand in his. I nodded briefly-feeling a sharp and anxious, yet excited pang in my chest. As much as I loved surprises, the fear of the unknown was still the harshest fear that I had to cope with throughout my life. I felt the pressure of the blindfold leave my head as it fell to the ground.
I was suddenly overwhelmed as the sunlight came streaming over my fair face. I embraced every image which overwhelmed my eyes while I scanned the environment for any clues. He said that I had to work for my reward- I just didn't know what to look for.
Lying infront of my feet was a blood red daisy- dripping with adventure. As I picked it up to caress and smell it, I was made aware of another one lying randomly on the fresh grass -waiting for someone to follow it's trail. A few yards away from the next daisy- another one protruded from the cobble stone path. They were beckoning me to be curious and to follow the trail which they so gladly set out to guide me with.
A sudden energy electrocuted my body- sending fast pulses through my body, which forced me to run with all my might, following the trail of daisies and picking them up as I pursued my inner whim of power. I charged through a bundle of thick bushes, through lanes of apple trees and soft coverings of moss.As I made my way around a large Oak tree, holding a large bouquet of daisies by that time, I managed to find another one stuck into a knot in the old oak.
As I plucked the daisy from it's realm, I noticed a small wooden box hidden inside the knot. My fingers clinched it and I was aware of his presence behind me. As I spun around, his blue eyes penetrated mine. My legs turned to jelly, while his defined hand steadily gestured me to open the delicately engraved box.
I opened it only to discover yet another flower. I was well aware of the symbolic meaning behind this flower, but I never knew that he felt this way about me. I carefully lifted the passionate red rose out of it's closet. "The secret is out now" he whispered as he leaned over and gave me his heart.
