went camping, and it was amazing.
thousands (millions!) of stars that I hadn't seen before. a really long hike to a deep crevice in the forest of large trees, rock outcroppings, and waterfalls.
oh, my ankles and hips!

sleeping in a tent is a great experience...especially when you unzip it to see a beautiful fall morning.
{when he began snoring, I laughed aloud}

we came back to a warm bed, a warm (relatively) room, and climbed under the sheets...

as we mindlessly wrapped our limbs about one another and held tight, I closed my eyes and saw the forest and the creepers on the backs of my eyelids... ferns and rocks and waterfalls... today, there was perfect lighting...

There are beautiful images in my mind when we're together. All of the emotions that I should have, but didn't feel this past year come rushing back to me:

My grandfather; the dream of his death.
The train to Venice
the Musee D'Orsay, the Louvre
a Nutella crepe with whipped cream
Sitting outside a Venetian cafe in the rain, drinking mint tea
Watching the Eiffel Tower light up... a chill wind
Riding the metro
the Blue Grotto in Capri
Vesuvius outside the bus window

and images that I can't place...

He pushes me back to the bed with such energy... back and forth we go..
see-saw...
I need you, I want you.
Hold me tighter...I need to get closer
the hair on his chest a soft cloud against my breasts.
I wrap my arms underneath his and around his shoulders...his arms so strong.
One hand on the small of my back, he pulls me up to him...

I tell him that I find him more sincere... there is no doubt in my mind when ... he puts his thumb to my lips, silencing me. kisses it
Holds my face between two just-right hands and... in his yellow eyes I see... and he says
"Anna, I love you"
shivers and a wide smile and tears behind my eyes and only in a few seconds
and i'm wrapped up with him again, twisting
back and forth

je me réveille
