Everything
She stood at the edge of a cliff; her arms spread, welcoming a cool breeze as it blew past. A single tear rolled down her cheek, and glistened while it reflected the sunlight as it set below the horizon. As the sun set and night descend, her eyes shut slowly. She looked to the stars and whispered:
"Where are you?"
Find me here, and speak to me,
I want to feel you; I need to hear you
***************************
He watched the sunrise on a cliff; his arms remained at his side. The colors of the sun mesmerized him as they blended with one another. Once night left a day broke, his voice shattered the silence:
"Why?!"
You are the light that's leading me,
To the place where I find peace…again
He looked across the void and marveled at its beauty. This tranquil place reminded him of the place he and his love had shared before…it had been a week since he left, but it felt like a year…
You are the strength that keeps me walking,
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
***************************
The door slowly creaked open as she walked into her room. She sat down on her bed and a piece of paper caught her eye. As she neared it, she saw that it was addressed to her. She gingerly unfolded it and read it quietly to herself:
Hey,
By the time you read this I will be well on my way to America. I got scholarship there and my parents made me take it, even though, as you know, I also got one here. That's where I am. I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before, I was really choked for time; I wish I could have told you in person, I'm sorry. I hope things won't change between you and me. Gotta go.
Love,
Ta-
The letter slipped from her hand and floated to the floor. She slowly fell to the floor as her body shook with sobs. She buried her face within her hands and cried…
You are the light to my soul,
You are my purpose, you're everything
***************************
He walked down the path; the sun beat down upon him. He was now a loner. It was a hot summer day, but he wore thick long sleeves. Hidden form view laid the wounds of pain. The pain of being away form the one you love. Pain.
As the day progressed he aimlessly walked form class to class. The second week had passed a day ago, and his life was already falling apart without her. His eyes no longer shined with the warmth and love in which they once held; instead they had a strange lifelessness to them...
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
*Flashback*
Would you tell me how could it be
any better than this…?
*End Flashback*
The thunder roared and the lightning flashed as she watched the raindrops dance outside her window. She closed her eyes and leaned on the glass; the cool surface calming her. How she wished he would come; take her in his arms and hold her.
You calm the storms and you give me breath,
You hold me in your hands; you won't let me fall
She opened her eyes and looked out the window. She saw something faintly in the distance…it was him…he was waiting for her…
Her heart seemed to become still and her breath stopped in her throat as she gazed at him.
You still my heart and you take my breath away,
Would you take me in?
Take me deeper now.
***************************
"I got a scholarship in America and… I have to go." She looked up and him; her eyes- shimmering with tears- met his.
"I-I thought you got one here. Why do you have to go to America?"
"I don't want to, but my parents are making me…I'm sorry."
"How long do we have?"
"A week…"
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
***************************
He awoke with a gasp and looked around. The dream was how he had wished he could have to told her; at least he wouldn't have just dropped off the face of the earth. Remembering that he was on the airplane home, he smiled to himself and glanced out the window. Home. Home to her…
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
'cause you're all I want, you're all I need,
you're everything, everything
As he walked out of the airport, a light breeze blew through his hair. He walked casually toward an awaiting taxi when the breeze blew past him again, only stronger than before. He ignored it a quickened his pace, but with each step the wind grew stronger and stronger. He stopped... taking no heed to the calls of the driver of the taxi. His luggage fell from his hands to the ground. The wind swirled around him… it seemed to tell him something… The wind left him and rustled the leaves of the trees in front of him; he broke into a run following the invisible guide. She called for him…
You're all I want, you're all I want, you're everything, everything
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
***************************
She ran out of the apartment and headed towards the cliff. She pushed her way through the crowds of people that blocked her way when she reached the heart of the city. She reached the cliff and tears threatened to escape her eyes when she found nothing but emptiness… the same element that filled her heart. She looked to the sky and whispered the name that she hadn't dared to say since he left; hoping he would hear her call.
"Takeru…"
***************************
Takeru had made it to the clearing and saw her there. She was beautiful, but yet so sad at the same time.
"Hikari!" he yelled as he ran towards her. She turned. Her eyes wide and sparkling with tears. Once he reached her, Hikari buried her face into his shirt and cried. Takeru drew his arms around her and slowly stroked her light brown hair. "I'm sorry…" he whispered into her hair as she continued to sob.
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
"Takeru… I've missed you."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier Hikari, you know I would have."
"I understand... I'm just happy you're back." She whispered as she kissed him lightly on the cheek. She sighed happily as she laid her head in the crook of his neck. They stood there for what seemed to be days, when in reality it was only minutes. A sorrowful, yet puzzled look crept upon her face as she looked up at him. "What made you come back?"
"You…" She blinked her eyes a couple of times as he spoke, before she responded:
"You left everything you had just to come back…to me?" Takeru smiled lightly as he drew Hikari closer to him.
"Hikari… you are everything." He replied as he caressed her cheek. She leaned onto his hand at the touch; her eyes closing slowly. He lifted her face towards his, and their lips met in a kiss of true passion as the sun set behind them…
Would you tell me how could it be
any better than this…?
