The lady waited for a while. By the water, she stood. She knew she was a fool when he never came. She knew she was quite a fool indeed. The tide came in quickly as the moon rose higher and higher until it was a stark dot in the night sky.
Her soul was weary, tired from the ups and downs, excitements and disappointments.
'And so it is,' She whispered huskily under her breath. The breeze kissed her cheeks and her chest.
'Just how it should be.'
She walked down the pier to her car.
When she arrived home, she somberly walked the hall to her quiet bedroom. She was so tired, and so she lay her head down slowly on her pillow with her eyes closed. She didn't sleep. She didn't sleep nearly enough.
