         Sometimes two people’s lives get so intertwined that they can’t live without each other. They can’t even remember life without their partner. But sometimes they must learn to. Because even if someone is alive in your heart in mind doesn’t mean that the same can be said for real life. When the stars align right constellations happen that is what these two were. They were Earths own constellation, standing there amongst all the craziness for people to marvel at. But constellations only last for so long until the stars drift apart. Even though the might not want to the universe doesn’t care it continues on in its relentless styles and unforgiving natures without turning turning a blind eye. I wish I could say different for are little stars but just as real stars they are only so small and insignificant compared to the greater universe.
     
   Are own stars being Delilah and Arlo. These stars came together to form their own constellation coming together in an act so beautiful the universe shed a tear when they drifted apart. They met at a mere seventeen but that won’t stop their love story. There being of stars. Their love of flowers, blooming and blossoming through time and care growing the strength to stand without support. They love story started as an average cliché a simple girl, Delilah, raised on a farm fresh honey and dew berries. Meets Arlo a boy raised in the back streets city lights and guitar. Everyone doubted them their stars, to opposite to make a constellation. But nobody considered the universes play treating the stars as puppets on strings intertwining and entangling them to create a beautiful show. But as their teachers would say every play has a conflict whether the story blossoms long enough for it to be solved or not every story has a conflict.
     
     The conflict in their story would never be solved their conflict would be eventually proven dire. Though their love never died, Delilah would. With beauty comes sacrifice, a sacrifice of the mind. Standards. Every puppet must be kept clean, but poor Delilah couldn’t be kept clean enough she had to be thrown away. The stars drifted apart as one exploded the other could only watch as the universe turn its back. Though their constellation ended in an explosive fashion that the whole world could feel at core that doesn’t mean that their stars lasted only little. There stars had been intertwined for a year not long compared to our standards, but however for the universe kept these two together longer than expected.
    
   Though a tragic end, their love while it lasted was beautiful and sweet like honey. Delilah had always loved the stars, they now seemed to shine brighter now that she was in them.  After Delilah’s passing Arlo sat outside every night talking to the stars, to Delilah. Maybe one day their constellation would be real. Every night Arlo sat in the same spot where they had their first date. That day was magical they played songs made flower crowns and laughed. Delilah’s laugh could bring the universe into tears. That day though written in no history books would live on forever. Even though never married they vowed to never leave each other. “Due death do us physically part, but due the day the universe caves in do we mentally have to part.” There love was beautiful just as a constellation.
  
    Arlo made a vow the day Delilah died. He realized that no love could be more beautiful then there constellation, he made a vow to never move on. Though the universe may have separated them physically the universe has no play at the mind. A month later the stars became a little brighter a new constellation being seen in the stars. Though this constellation doesn’t have a name they say if you look at the sky on the night of November 27th two stars will shine brighter than the rest. Delilah and Arlo. November 27th the day are stars drifted together for the first time will forever be remebered as the day two stars made the cry. Finally able to be one with the stars, our constellation Delilah and Arlo.
