As I sit here I can smell them. The scent is getting stronger.
According to OJ they smell like cat pee. He has no romance in him.
What I can smell are the two white hyacinths I bought a couple of weeks ago. I was out shopping one evening when I decided to treat myself to some flowers. Then I decided on a plant instead. I ended up buying a pot with two hyacinths.
The romantic in me decided that these two plants represented myself and Romeo. I could watch the plants grow just as our feelings were growing. Now they are both 80% open but whilst one is growing upright the other is leaning at a right angle away from the first. does this indicate that we are not on course to be together.
The other day as I was going about my business I suddenly heard Romeo's voice in my head. He was telling me that I should
'Sing like you've never sung before,
Dance as if no one is looking,
and Love like you've never been hurt'
I also heard him telling me
You are a very strong person who can deal with these trials and tribulations.
So even though I have not heard from him for a week I know he is with me. I just have to trust him. I have to believe in us. When he escapes from his present work situation he will return home and we can show each other that the wait has been worth while.
