Prologue
The Meaning of forever
If it all would last forever,
If it all would never die,
There'd be no pain, no suffering,
No need to say goodbye,
But the saddest thing about this life,
Is all that could have been,
The trust, the love, the everything,
That's where the story begins,
You see there's something stronger,
Than destiny or fate,
Something pulling two together,
Never willing to abate,
And that is how we start,
With this unnamed, magic force,
When it brings together two lovers,
Who knew nothing of remorse,
And so that fate would have it,
A child they did rear,
One so perfectly clumsy,
For her life they both did fear,
While across another universe,
A little boy did live,
Plagued by suffering, and pain,
To fix it, anything he'd give,
So they both did live their frail lives,
While sixteen years did elapse,
They struggled together,
It was their fate, perhaps,
But one day that would change,
One day, they would meet,
And realize within themselves,
That neither was complete,
But a sudden incident had taken place.
The metal shrieked against the ground,
Producing sharp and deadly sounds,
Round and round and round it spun,
No time was left for them to run,
It was a terrible atrocity.
But what stroke their curiosity
Was not the mangled car upon the floor,
Nor the lifeless shapes, that hung from the door,
No it was the girl, the small defenseless girl,
Passed by and counted as dead, but for one fleeting
Moment, they realized what might be,
And found her heart, still just barely beating…
So, What do you think? All reviews are really, incredibly appriciated,
I'll be posting the first chapter sometime tomorow,
Thanks guys,
