I travelled far in the train's steady swing and briefly came upon a bright star.
A stunning girl, love at first sight,
Our hearts were on fire when we got married.
Sadly, a startling noise interrupted the dream.
The harsh wail of an alarm broke the shine.
I awakened up to the icy embrace of reality, but love's memory remained there forever.
Because even if love's flame never dies, her touch will always be adamantly felt in my heart.
Love's essence endures like an eternal light even though it was only a dream or a momentary pleasure.

TICK TOCK
11.59. Even though the glass had shattered, Lorna could still see that her watch ticked over. One minute until midnight. Her watch was the only thing she had that she could carry. The only thing to remember her parents by. A birthday present from last year, the year she turned seventeen.

Midnight
60 seconds… 59 seconds… Time was slipping through his fingers, though he clawed at the falling grains of sand, he could not stop the hourglass from flowing. Around him, the silence was deafening. He had taken over every screen in the command centre, putting the terrible seconds before the terrified eyes of his friends and comrades.
