Sue’s #writephoto prompt for today…
Meet me by the Arch of Stones
Where no one else will be
Hide behind the monument
And wait just there for me
Lean against the cold grey stone
Press your back just there
You’ll feel a warmth, a breeze
As I gently touch your hair
Close your eyes and feel
Me gently stroke your lips
The sensation of my hands
Slipping slowly to your hips
Imagine me clasping you tight
Crushing you to my chest
And I shall feel the gentle
Heaving of your breast
Just think of me, my love
And know how much I care
For it won’t be too long
Until I’m really there.

Sue’s #writephoto prompt this week…
It wasn’t often that she got to the beach ahead of the rest of the crowds, but today was one of those days. The morning mists were just clearing, and the sun was starting to shine.
Looking at the empty run of golden sand, with the tufts of green grass inviting her to sit, she took a step forward.
Then stopped.
Those shadows.
Glancing to her right, she expected to see other standing there. Drat, she wasn’t the first after all.
But there was no one there. The whole beach was empty.
Yet the shadows remained.
And they appeared to be moving towards her.
Footprints appeared in the sand.
She needed no other warning.
Tightening her grip on her beach bag, she sped off, screaming to no one in particular.

Sue’s #writephoto prompt this week…
Coming round, I see the light first.
It’s like a beacon, calling me.
Looking around at where I am, I realise that I’ve been living my life wrong, and this warm, cosy place is only going to get hotter, and hotter…
It’s still not too late.
If I can reach the source of the light, I can climb back up, seek redemption, become a better person.
But it’s just so comfortable here.
The climb up looks hard…
Is it worth it?
Saint or Sinner?
My choice.

Sue’s #writephoto prompt this week.
Dear You,
Sitting here, watching the sun slowly set, I feel a sense of peace finally come over me.
It’s been tough these last few weeks. I wasn’t able to get away from anyone. I know they were being considerate, not wanting to leave me alone for even one minute, but still, sometimes you need a little solitude you know, to really put things into perspective.
This was where we always came, wasn’t it, when we wanted some time together, alone? In times of sadness, happiness, lust, and anger, we rushed here, mostly together, but sometimes we’d be hot on the tails of the other.
This view, this horizon, it’s seen a lot of our life played out, and in the end, it even bore witness to our last moments.
Who knew that final drive to our favourite spot would be our last? That, holding my hand, you’d take your final breath?
They didn’t want me to come here, but no one seems to understand that this is where I feel whole. Just sitting on the sand, staring out into the horizon, I know you’re here with me.
Be happy, wherever you are.
I’ll come here often, to feel you near me. I’ll scatter your ashes here, so I know your final resting place will be where your heart always was. And I can only hope that when my time comes, they’ll bring me here too, so we can finally be one again.
Love you always,
Me
❤
