Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
"Pitiful creature of darkness; what kind of life have you known? God give me courage to show you…you are not alone!" Christine walked to the Phantom and sang to him. She was ready to promise him forever for Raoul's sake. She kissed him full on the lips. At first, he did not react. Christine backed off, giving him a chance to recover. She saw the look of horror on Raoul's face and wanted to cry for him. To keep herself from crying, she kissed the Phantom again.
This time, he seemed to react. His lips were smooth and loving. Maybe living with the Phantom would not be as bad as she thought.
