Chapter 43 - love²

act 1

something i could never forget. a feeling i held onto dearly, i didn't know that i could ever feel this way about anyone. but you were the first to bring me into this new world and teach me the luxuries i never could experience. it was light, at first. but slowly, you taught me how to open up. you taught me how to look past the struggle and find strength. to find meaning in being myself. you scorched my heart with your tender taste and i just couldn't turn my head away from you. 

act2

the moon greets me in the morning, you greet me in the usual scene. we joyfully carried out our fun. i still smell it, the strawberry chocolate crapes, the corndogs that were too big to fit into my mouth. i can still hear it, the laughter of both adults and children around us as we joined in. not knowing how much time has passed

act 3

rain, pouring down, that poured down as heavy as the seas weighed. the wind was sharp, the atmosphere blurred. and the umbrella was on the verge of falling apart in front of us. yet, it didn't matter. you were beside me, to fight through it all. to comfort me. i don't care about anything else other than you. despite it all, your smile still shined, like a compass, guiding me. 

act 4

your emerald eyes glitter under the moonlight. drinking milkshakes on the grass, watching the fireworks shatter. a completely different demeanour, hair that brushed against the wind and a body full of vitality. eye bags that only spoke of energy rather than labour. it was fun, it was beautiful. exchanging our final goodbyes with a kiss.

final act

i rested my hand against the glass. if it was for just one more day, just one more day. i wish that the nights were longer. i wished that our nights were longer. why does my heart ache, why do my eyes sting? i feel like i have been ripped apart. the puddles formed on the concrete under my eyes. you amaze me. there was almost nothing like a mistake you made, it was all... perfect. you helped me remember what love is. a concept that i had forgotten a long time ago. if it was for just one more day,

i wish... 

that i could be with you again
