I remember back when my life was ordinary. Normal. Just fine, working on its own. How long it's been. Except…it's as if I never left.

I remember the day it all began. My life, I mean. My extraordinary life. The life that was, well, just fantastic.

I remember when I first met you. I was scared, you were just loving this next thrill. Though you hated it, oh how you hated it. I didn't know then, but soon after, I would be entrapped in my own enigma such as yours. Except not at all similar to the harsh burden you carried.

Oh, how ordinary life was before I met you. Before we ran, ah, yes, the running. I never tired of it. With smiles, or tears, laughs or frowns. We loved the running.

I remember the day I ran away with you. I was so full of youth and curiosity. Bright eyed blonde. Eyes soon to see the endless wonder and the unfathomable infinity the universe holds. You were my mystery. The man who smiles so bright while hiding such pain under those twinkling eyes, Eyes so old, but brand-new also. Ready to see the world once again. I knew I would be running with you forever. But, I also remember the war.

Bad Wolf

I remember dancing as the bombs fell around us. And flying through the cosmos, the held tight hands and half-smile waves. How have we both changed, for neither good nor bad. We simply are, forever.

Forever, right?

I remember the sad, sad smiles as our enemies grew closer, that look in your eyes that tricked me into fighting against the odds. I thought we won.

I remember the tears we shed, through thick walls that grew all around us. We could never break them down. But how I tried.

You just walked away.

I remember when you stood on the beach, I heard the waves against the shore. I remember how the sky darkened as if it knew. This was out final goodbye, the final note to the song, the melody that was supposed to last.

Forever and Ever.

I remember that brand new day, the first one ever. I remember your eyes, that daring smile.

You think you're so clever, don't you?

I remember when your hand held mine for the first time. I remember your whisper.

"Run."
