They ended up together again
Their paths weren't so full of pain
Minor setbacks but they got over them
Love is true and sure for all of them
It's amazing how perfectly they change
Together, seldom apart; it's so strange
Their kisses are always electric, full of charge
They fit each other perfectly, neither too small nor too large
Perfect smiles, love-filled hearts
Look at them; How can they ever grow apart?
Because they are living a beautiful fairy tale
Their lives have been planned down to every detail
Because they are scripted by another broken soul
Who gave them the story he wished he could live himself alone
The misery he felt colored papers in heaps
As he tried to pen down everything good he wanted to feel
His every desire, however deep
Went down in those pages; so enchantingly sweet
Because his life wasn't perfect, not even close
Fantasizing was the only way he could cope
And so through that agony came to him a crystal vision of his wants
He embraced them to himself and life was a little less gaunt
Now he sits signing copies of the characters that created
His stories were received by many and they related
A few hundred pages, a few thousand seconds of respite
A few million people, a billion fluttering heartbeats with renewed life
It's exquisite how they're connected together by their parallel wishful desires
His tranquilizing fantasies have birthed what the engineer in him could never wire
He feels his agony sizzle and cease as he watches the smoke in the distance float higher
It occurs to him that maybe it's true that happiness lies beyond a blazing wall of fire.

A/N: Hey! Long time no see?
So I think I started a draft of this poem sometime between 2019 and 2021 and just found that paper lying about in my drawer today and couldn't resist finishing it. The fact that I am not even sure of the year I started this is really tickling me weirdly lol.
And guess what? The title took over an hour and a half to come up with. And we had two brains working on this operation. There was a lot of swearing and a lot of crying gifs. At one point I think we even forgot the poem lmao. Hey there @hamiltonian_mechanic ;)
Eh, he's prob still killing me in his mind😂
We discussed so many titles. Carved From Chaos, Forged In Chaos, Evading Chaos, Building Castles On The Ground, Tethering Euphoria, Transmorgifying into Hope, Weaving Hope and so many effing more😭 It almost drove us crazy. It was too much chaos, pun intended.
On a serious note, I am not very happy today. I feel like the last two and a half years of my life have been in vain. I have sacrificed too much and gained too little. I'm way lower than I've been in a while so it's harder to manage. I don't know how to deal with it atm. Maybe I should go and sleep *sigh*
I will be okay.
I hope you are okay too. I love you guys. I'm always here if any one of you wants to talk. My inbox is open for you guys and so are the comments. I go through them all. You are not alone <3
Until next time. Take care.
