two bodies
lean over the edge
to look at what's beneath
before the moment arises for
two loners to descend,
they look off the iron bridge
into the red grave called water beneath.
complete strangers that share the same fate
they look out towards the horizon, ready, aim, fire their physical bodies down
its safe to say they aren't safe
lonely spirits caught in cages,
they look to the other
eyes meet
locked
descending
in peace
"we aren't falling, are we?"
"no, dear, we must have met before?"
"i'm afraid not, but i'm already afraid to lose you"
"neither one of us are lost, we found each other"
"i wish i could pick your brain until time ends"
"and i wish i could make it so this never had to happen"
"i love you"
"i love you"
"what's your name?"
sinking
into water
two limp bodies
lifeless and desolate
two star-crossed lovers
dead
