*Adapting to Love* : Dancing in an empty room

I spent Friday night cleaning her new place. It was totally empty and dirty. We washed the toilet, mopped the floor and planned what needed to be done next. The only thing remotely entertaining was Leanne Rimes "Fallen Angel" playing in the background.

After a couple of hours cleaning, there we were, in an empty apartment, albeit a cleaner one... Leanne Rimes was singing "Written in the Stars" and she and I were in the empty living hall. And that is when I held her and started dancing...

It was just her and me alone, she in my arms and not thinking a single thought. I felt at peace, and I felt loved, and most importantly I felt happy. It took away my tiredness, the pain, the hurt, the fear, the worries, everything... It was just her and me. Our problems and reality does not stop because of that one dance, but it reminds me of what I am fighting for.

Thank you for that dance, my wildfire princess.

P/S - I know that this is a very soppy post, so as an ironic note, Written in the stars is actually about unrequited love... Talk about irony...
