A Tale by Underscore_XO

Darling, You're Dancing with Death

You’re so close to my reach, yet you’re so far from where I am. The rocks at my feet keep me grounded; the weight of what we’ve been tethers me to where I stand—you’re floating in the sky like a feather, but in truth, you’re sinking in the sand.

Darling, don't you see? Your fear brought death upon us, and now he's taking you away from me. He will pull you somewhere far away, somewhere I could never reach. Discovering the light within is the only thing that will set you free.

For now, all I can do is gaze at the starlit sky and hope that one day, your soul will come alive. Waiting on this cliff's edge for as long as I can. The chances of you returning are as small as a grain of sand. I stand steady and sure as I wait for the day you return.
