Warning: Kinda emotional

The sun is setting, the leaves are falling and we are there, at the edge of the world, side by side. 

And your hand is so close I can feel your heat, yet so far I know you are untouchable. Untouchable like the most beautiful piece of art. Untouchable like a cloud of smoke coming from the depths of your lungs, poisoning your body like your eyes are poisoning my heart. 

And I wish you knew all the things I've ever wanted, no, needed to tell you, but it feels too selfish to break such a magical moment with my words. 

All those nights I spent thinking of your angelic skin, of your devilish smile, I was blessed with your presence and you were cursed with my love. 

The days are becoming shorter, the nights are cold, the time is running so why did we stop? 

" Why is the world so malicious?"

You ask and my heart breaks in two seeing your spirit die by the unforgettable, unforgivable sin of the human race. 

" Why do people hurt each other?"

You ask and my soul leaves my body until there's nothing but agony filling the empty shell of my frame.

" Is there really no hope left?"

You ask and your once sparkling eyes cut through me like thousands of knives ripping the last parts of me to the pieces. And your eyes are dead, and so is my heart, and so is the world, and so are we. 

" Yoongi, if I could change the world for you I would."

I find my mouth speaking, the air leaving my lungs and never coming back.

" But I'm only a small soul fighting the malevolence of this world."

Your soul filled with a hopeless feeling of pain, and I know my words are ripping you apart yet I cannot find myself lying to you. 

" I was never the winner Yoongi, but I tried so hard to win for you."

The tip of your shoe clashes against the fag, killing the light of the ashes like the world had killed our light, therefore, we have to turn to ashes to complete the circle.

Seeing the once pure soul leave such innocent, gentle body of you, my dear companion, so slowly, almost unnoticeably every time you were met with injustice, pain and venomous wicked ways of the fellow-occupants of this world was more tormenting than seeing the world end. 

" What did we ever do to them Taehyungie?"

The question I had asked myself a million times before, the question that was keeping me awake at night and the question that was keeping me from spreading my wings and flying.

" The world is sick, it needs to be healed. The souls of people had been intoxicated with fear, hatred and selfishness."

I say and the tears pick in your eyes watering the garden you let me plant in your eyes and I grab your face so tightly yet so gently afraid you could disappear any second. 

" Min Yoongi, don't you dare hang your head low. Me and you, we were born for each other. I was made from the sun rays and you were made from the moondust and we were brought here to become each other's shield."

I say so passionately wishing my words would hit the last living piece that's left in your body, keeping it alive with the power of love. 

" We are here to suffer by each others side, we are here to fight the wrongdoing of people, we are here to be despised, misjudged and excruciated."

Your heat is colliding with my cold dancing together in the last rays of the sunset. 

" But our love can bring us higher, further than we could imagine. Our love can make it all disappear, our love can be the hope we need, our love can be the air we breathe, our love can make us forget, forgive, believe."

Losing the track of my words I feel your soft touch on my neck, bringing me closer so close I melt in your beauty as you place your lips on top of mine. 

Kissing so slowly, so softly, so purely I feel the world change into the standing ovation of nameless faces no longer wanting us death but celebrating the power of love. 

I hear the harsh words turn into the cheers of happiness and kindness, I feel the cold stares turn into loving, caressing looks of the strangers, I feel the world disappear and be born at the same time and I see the colours change from grey to pink. 

And I know it's like that only for the glimpse of a second, and you know it too, and the pain will attack us again, people will attack us again. The smiles will turn into frowns and the hope will become so distant yet again. 

But right now, we are at the edge of the world, we are here, we are alive, we are in love, and we are hoping. Hoping for tomorrow to be a better day. Hoping for people to be better.

" I love you."

I whisper and you smile at me, your eyes sparkling with tears and flowers.

" I love you too."
