Life's for the living so live it, or you're better off dead


The water rippled from the mellow streams

And the sky portrayed in wondrous colors behind the autumn leaves

For it was the end of the day,

Her favorite time of the day.

He lay there watching at the beautiful sky

With one thing on his mind, the question why?

Why she had to live in a land

Where no one survived all the way to the end.

She was the one who trapped herself

And placed herself up high on the tallest shelf

Where the boy couldn’t reach the stunning girl

Who made his whole life a big ol’ whirl

The stunning girl was stuck as well

For the only way to be free was if she fell

Each knight was cut short by the obstacles in the way

Until the rules were broken one day.

She beat the obstacles the previous person placed

Till she made it in front of the creators face.

The creator was not only someone she knew

But some writing on a mirror that read, the biggest weakness is you.

Everything made sense in the stunning girls mind

For she found everything she wanted to find.

She looked over the previously everlasting shelf

And found the silhouette of the curious boy himself.

With a wave and a jump from the scary height,

The boy caught the girl forgetting all fright.

Fright that things will repeat themselves,

But instead they were replaced by chiming church bells.

The once fantasy the two of them had to pretend

Was now a reality that shall be known till the end.
