A girl lays by her bedside staring out across the room to window to the world. She is transfixed within herself, her soul scattered, and her heart isolated. The last tear drop slides off her still lips as she clenches her eyes shut.
She attempts to fall into sleep in hope her dreams carry her away from cruel shadows.
She is awoken by a continues thump, her toes numb and her cheeks stale from tears.
Daylight streams in trough the rugged curtains. She is briefly blinded and then stunned by an overwhelming sensation. As the hazy world around her is brought back into focus, she looks down and finds what appears to be the word "LOVE" written on the palm of her left hand. Charged with a burning passion, she jolts up and finds her footing. Through the garden, she is lost in herself. Gently, her fragile finger tips brush against ancient stone figures entwined with plantation of humble vine and flowers. She dances with an electric essence. Free from the pressures of a once unfaithful world, she has discovered a blissful universe within herself. A hazy figure reveals himself from the shadows. A servant to a well deserved cause. He steps with ease towards her, his kind eyes in pursuit of beauty. A sense of security fixes itself within the girl, she is helpless to herself.
The two converge hand in hand as they illuminate, then devolve into the suns rays.
