Serenity

There would be no reply forth coming to his words, and he cast his eyes back to her in a moment to see that she, too was lost in her gaze of the water. He found himself wondering what road her thoughts where travelling down, and what caused the solemn expression to cross her delicate features. He let the silence lead on for a moment, he could still feel the cool of the water and his respite was not yet over. He was relieved that her entoxicating scent was less potent with each moment he stood in her precense.


Whatever resilience he was building up, he hoped that it would last. He would turn his attention back to her now and could admire her delicate features with a fresh taste of clarity. She was pretty, with her darks and creams and cool blue eyes, cast silver by the reflextion of the foamy waters before them.
After a longer moment he would let out a soft sigh, taking in the last full breath of clean ocean air before moving closer towards her. Close enough to almost touch her, but not enough to over-crowd her he would stop, head tilted ever so slightly to the side in his trademark expression of a cruiosity mixed with kindness.
?Whats on your mind, Liberty??
He asked gently.
