Why is the couple on the subway holding hands? You pondered while looking at them with a scowl.
Merely because they were honest to each other in all ways you couldn’t think of.
Silly as it seems that was the way they found love and that was the way they kept love.
The same way you try your hardest to lie to yourself believing a passion so strong at first sight isn’t real they tried their hardest to believe it was.
The way they locked eyes the moment they saw each other and felt the glistening of a true sunrise in their heart threatening to bring the light into a dim world that you were stuck in.
These were barely adults, not from my time, they didn't know the ways of the world as I have, how could they believe in such illogical things.
They were born into a time of animation while you monotony but that's no excuse to act like you're better than the children of now. They’ve had their hardships as well as you but the way they handled their problems led them here. On the subway. Holding hands.
