My Entry Into STACH Short Story Contest #6
Long ago, while writing a song, I was inexplicably drawn to the window of my apartment. My view was of a single window embedded in the brick wall of the building opposite. I loved that window across from me as it was occupied by a lovely twenty year old blond. We would chat across the courtyard occasionally. Secretly, I wanted to get to know her, desperately!
I was trying to rhyme a lyric; I might as well have been trying to rhyme with orange!
From across the courtyard, I heard her beautiful voice singing my song.
Falling, falling head over heels,
It would be easier if I couldn't feel; your breath
Nothing better than the air that you breathe...
...that's all I could come up with.
"Hey, that's my song!" I shouted.
"Really? I was just making it up as I go." She blushed.
"Please continue!" I begged.
Getting close to you is where I wanna be.
That was it! That finished my song.
We have been married for 50 years. "Where I wanna be." was a number one hit the day we got married. Right beside my muse, still to this day, is where I wanna be.
Thank you for taking the time to read my ramblings!
