Moonlight and a Stupid Song

-
the radio had been playing all night long,
you closed the door on me and went back inside.
I leaned my head back and just pretended,
cause you were busy smiling.
With my head against the car seat,
I pretended you opened my door,
You whispered in my ear
a song you would rather like to hear
and you lifted me away
into a rough version of a waltz.
We slow danced on the corner
while the half moon was high
and orion was straightening his belt.
You said this is what you knew
I would look like in the moonlight.
I said you were beautiful
 and I would dance all night
just with you in my eyes.
Then you held me close
and hummed the notes,
to a song I couldn't quite place.
She ran a red light
I woke with a fright
realizing it was all a dream.
"Next time" I said,
Alone in my head,
"Next time you will dance with me."

She only wanted a moment to say her piece. It's not like they would even post her ideas on the board or anything. She just felt that if she could get this over with her confidence would sky rocket magically and she would just always post her ideas from now on. They didn't have time for another piece so she actually apologized to them. She hits her head against the wall in the second story of her design studio. How could she be like that, so spineless! She angrily grabs a cup of water from the chow table. What was she thinking being so sill, apologizing! She knows what to do and she knows she could be an awesome leader for the next design team, let alone the fact that she will absolutely die if she has to be lead by her snobby boring just good enough co-designer. "co" is the title of their relationship and yet somehow it always seems to fall to her to do all the work and correct all the inadequate pieces and create pure genius while Gracie falls to getting the praise a

Since The city,  Eushaunn, is Kilos away i will take us about two weeks journey to arrive. Therefore the invitation is always sent about four months in advance. We had more then enough time to prepare and yet the moment i announced it to the hall, there was chaos. It was as if we were leaving the next day! Oh how i love our ladies and gentlemen who tend to the Hall. The women went hysterical beginning to get out the travel clothes and the armor for our journey. The men went straight to the Villa where our horses and traveling carts we always kept. It was immediate.  I, on the other hand, went to the library. It wasn't time yet for combat practice and i wanted to get some domestic issues cleared up before we left.  The Villa of Dyllen was lead by a distant cousin of my father's. He was an excellent Lord and a terrific warrior. However, his son... he doesn't belong in Wood. HIs father is still alive in a simple house in the Laor. The Fae care for him since he has gone beyond

I realize i have been scatter brained so let me clear some things up for myself if anyone.  Behllaveaia is the Island of Life. It is in the centre of the Great Waters that flow for eternity. Amruirael is the countries and kingdoms connected within that land. The mountains and the cities and the Wood are all connected but great spaces are between them and well named the Wildernesses. There are other less civilized territories and tribal people all throughout the lands. There are also the  Lyshxien, the terror of the Wood, the Skerridikki terror of the Great dessert and of the Rock mountains, and the Mountains' only terror is the Lyshxien that dwell there and the Wolves. Great dogs. Terrible but  ancient . They do not kill to eat or for the fun of it. The CIties have their own terrors with robbers and murderers alike. The terror of the cities is the  madness  the men create upon themselves.  Wood lies in the center and the Kinder ( the Castle and such where our kingdom rules from)
