"The Object of My Desires" (Entry 351)

Is that his voice?

He beckons me. 

I try, but can't pull away

From eye contact. 

We stare. Joined. 

Transfixed. 

His smile sparkles. 

He knows he has me. 

How could he not?

Just so beautiful,

I want him to be mine. 

I'm too weak to resist. 

I take a step towards him. 

Dare I?

My mouth goes dry

As I feel my pulse racing. 

He has my heart. 

I lick my lips

As I slip toward him. 

Closer. 

Pupils dilate. 

Closer. 

I raise a trembling hand

To stroke his smooth face. 

I'm hit by a jolt of electricity. 

Sparking blue in my mind. 

A frenzy of energy 

Ripples throughout my being. 

We are connected.

Through the ages, by spirit, by life. 

Me and this stunning object of desire. 

Me and the Crystal Skull!
