Love.
What is love?
Like a shy maiden
with flushed rosy cheeks
Who dares not breathe
Entranced by his eyes
That hold her captive
In his deep soulful cries
Her hair is a mess
Tangled in knots
Her parted lips swollen
Bright red

He is a mess
Bloodied face
Swollen eye
She was his salvation
They embraced each other
As they faced the oncoming cries of the world
Oh how they wished
They could prevent this explosion
Full of fears
Full of regrets
Full of sadness...

Pure love...

They felt the ending coming near
She took his hands
And held them up to her face
She cried bitter tears
He leaned on her
Like she had always done
When they were younger

Hey do you remember?
The time you fell of a tree?
I was sleeping right there
At the bottom, as you fell on top of me.

She laughed.

I love you.

He smiled.
They did not live a fairytale,
they had never seen the sea,
or the bright blue sky. But if you had seen them, you would have never guessed it.

You know I would give up the world for you, right?

She smiled.
I know.

They held hands as they stared off unto the sunset that would never raise.

This is the end, huh. He stated.

All around them
the world started to die,
the beast began to unleash with all it's might and all around them became engulfed with flames.

I love you too.

Then there was nothing.
