Because I wouldn't be able to do what I want to do.' Then he put one hand lightly on her neck, and gently kissed her, in the middle of the street, amidst the people.
And it was the sweetest kiss that either of them would ever know. This is where it all begins. Everything starts here, today, and then it was over."

the evergreen kinship that amalgamated the common pursuit of the idea of something higher than ourselves: something that poked into the soul. the soul is such an overused word, but no, this was no hackneyed link. perhaps one day in the future, it might feel it, but that day, it wasn't. and that day was so real. and that day was ephemeral and yet, will persist forever in the banks of memory.
