A short poem inspired on the Raoul/Christine, Marius/Cossette relationship. The characters don't belong to me. The poetry is mine.

"Perfect together"

. . .they were light itself

They were perfect together;

Porcelain and alabaster;

Soft snow, softer cotton;

White blossoms of the spring.

They were perfect together:

A Princess and Prince Charming,

White swan, whiter dove,

azucena and jasmine. . .

They were so bright and clear;

The purest drops of water;

They were the same, alike

Like twin sister and brother. . .

But they forgot the truth as they walked through life:

"Only your opposite can be your other half"

azucena: the Spanish name of the white lily. It's usually associated with purity and innocence.
