Once left

A man and a woman woke side by side as the scorching sun beat down on them. They were alone in a world illuminated by blinding light. Impatiently waiting for inspiration to strike, she headed towards a tree and called out for her love. Their eyes opened to the world of philosophers, while their ears were assaulted by the clamor of the unrestrained thoughts.

From that moment on, their purest fortunes floundered, and the tangible world took hold. Night fell, and the bright world was left behind. The future looked bleak, and they felt trapped. But their love for each other delivered them from the suffocating world, and they found solace in embrace and the coffin’s close.
