I Wish That Night was Infinite

She stood at the ocean's edge staring out over the water that rushed at her over and over. A constant, soothing sound, the waves that she finally felt as if she was anchored to the ground.
She had run away from what troubled her and this is where she ended up.
Over 800 miles away from her home in the mountains to stand on the beach where she grew up as a child.
Her heart ached for the loss, for something she wished she could have known more of but she now knew it was not meant to be. He had chosen another and turned his back to her.
A pain of loss and a sense of weariness washed over her but this was to be her healing, a final healing for her battle worn soul.

"I wish that night was infinite, that the emotions we felt at that very moment were preserved forever. All those hurried kisses and frantic "I love you's" had no need to rush if they knew there was no such concept as 'time'. There would have been no need for hugs that were too tight, as if desperately grabbing onto a love that's fleeting. Like a video on replay, we'd be living the same scene, holding the same feelings, staring into the same eyes, again and again and again."

She whispered softly to the waves as they rolled up the sand to her feet.
She remembered his kisses, they were seared to her soul. The way his hands felt sliding over her skin and how tightly he held her as if she would disappear in an instant.
They were special together, they just did not get the time to really get to know the depth of their souls.
If they had.......there would be no parting them.

The waves continued, as they would for eternity, and she knew her love for him would eternally flow through her soul just the same.
