There was a girl who wore too many sweaters and a boy who cared too much.

The girl liked shopping and hot drinks.

The boy liked mountains and rain.

The girl knew how to forget

The boy knew how to remember

The girl liked pinky swears and trees

The boy liked fire and books

The boy liked philosophy

The girl liked music

The boy bore emotions too deep. Rivers of pain. Fires of passion. Valleys of joy. Oceans of sadness. He loved. and,

he

hated.

The girl was bright like stars in the night. Sometimes she blinked out and faltered. Let the dark take her. She was so warm and

so

cold


He changed the world and she

saved

it
