A story, in its longest of scenes, connects each doth to the resolution.
Even the inexperienced find out the ways of impossible things.

He met her and thought he had everything figured out.
A piece of the puzzle waiting to fit every part. Her smile that can stop the earth in its track.

Directionless wind flew on conventional backs.
His brothers lamented good fortune as he faced a double standard storm.

A candescent light slowly took over the dark days.
Impactful events led to the cornerstone doing exactly what it was supposed to.

It, along with them, remained firm since that day.
