Now You Know...
By xPainfulTears
"Who are you? ...Please tell me."
She looked back at him blankly not
knowing how to reply.
"I have to go." She replied and disappeared
into the dark forest.
He didn't know her name...
Or how
old she was...
Was she even real?
He didn't know.
All he
did know was that he loved her.
Sadly, she kept everything about
her secretly secured behind her inscrutable dark, beautiful eyes.
He layed in silence on the dried, crisped grass... just thinking.
The moon shined brightly, illuminating the flowerless meadow he layed
on.
His mind wandered until his eyes got heavy and he slowly
drifted away into a slumber.
He dreamt of her.
In
his dream, they laughed happily in the beautiful meadow that was now filled
with flowers of every kind.
She had then grabbed his hand and
smiled.
Her hand felt like ice on his skin, but he was too happy
to question it.
"Who are you?" He asked.
What had
just been bright and beautiful turned dark and gloomy.
Her smile disappeared
as she let go of his hand and ran off, but this time he chased her.
"Wait! Please don't run away!" He screamed into the dark.
"I'm sorry... I can't stay!" She yelled back.
He then woke
up in a cold sweat although it was quite chilly outside.
He
immediately got up and had begun to run through the dark forest looking
for her.
He couldn't see anything, but he kept searching using
the trees as his guide.
He had tripped over something hard and
scraped he knees falling over it.
His eyes slowly began to close
as he looked up to see the silouette of his unknown beloved.
~When
he came to, he was very confused.
Not knowing where he was or why
he was there...
Then he remembered he was looking for her.
He stood up using the hard, round-tipped object to push up against.
He backed up reading the words RIP: Beloved angel Ariel Williams
