Lady bugs dancing in the sunlight

Morning doves singing to the sky

I’ll just relax here in your arms

And smile as the day goes by

Why is the world so confusing? Why do feelings have to be so complicated? Why is love so hard? What is it about love that needed by so many? What are those feelings of butterflies when you’re in love? What makes that special person so special?

“Dammit Shane, why did you have to tell me that?” Dana misses you. Alice, Dana misses you! Your dream’s come true, but why do you feel so confused? And why are you crying?

She gently wiped away her tears, got up from the sofa, and went into her room to get her purse. She rummaged through it and finally found her cell phone. “I wonder if Dana’s number is still the same.” She flipped the cell phone open and began dialing. She stopped before she pressed in the last number and closed the cell phone. “Who am I kidding? Of course it’s changed, it has been three years. Three long years.”

She put her cell phone back in her purse. She laid down and tried to get some sleep. She just looked up at the ceiling lost in thought. She closed her eyes. She was almost asleep when she heard a knock on her door. She jumped up and looked at the digital clock next to her bed. “Who the fuck is it? It’s fucking four in the morning!”

She walked out of her room and walked towards the door. “I bet it’s Shane.” She opened the door and saw someone that almost made her faint. She was, in a way, star struck. “Dana?”

“Hi Alice.” Dana stared at Alice. She missed the sight of Alice. Alice still looked the same even though her hair was longer and darker. Dana wanted so badly to pick the woman up and take her to the bed room. The trouble she went through to find Alice was worth it to Dana. “Um, Ihi.” Dana was tongue tied.

“Yeahwanna, um, come in?” Alice gripped the door knob as she waited for answer.

“Um, sure.” Dana slowly walked inside. She was now standing next to Alice. They stood there staring at each other. Then Dana closed the door and gave Alice a hug. Oh God it felt good to hold her again. Dana took in the scent of Alice. God how she missed this woman. She missed her sight, her feel, her smell.
