A happy Ever After


They both loved one another. None had the strength to live without the other.
But the dictates of the society ruled out a happily ever after for them.
And so they thought about meeting for one last time that day.
But when the time for goodbyes came, their intertwined bodies would not let go.
…………
The blood from their cuts had formed a pool. It was too late to save them.
Or was it really late???
For their souls were rejoicing in land where love ruled ... With a clear heart and clean conscience … they had let go of their lives.

  3. Heartbreaking. At least they are "free" ... still. So sad. Well done.

  8. Absolutely tragic, but love is a beautiful thing. Something everyone deserves and should be able to express freely. A forbidden, and hidden, love is so romantically beautiful and so fundamentally sad at the same time. Great job!

  10. So sad to read but they're together forever in the end and that's the real meaning of happy ever after.

  12. How very Shakesperean. And were they really lost indeed. Perhaps their families made up like the Montagues and Capulets.

  13. Like a few others, I immediately saw Romeo and Juliet here and I think if that was your inspiration, you really did it justice. This is lovely piece. Thanks for linking up and see you on the weekend

    1. Thank you for encouraging me. Truthfully, Romeo and Juliet came to mind only when readers saw it. But it is a great compliment for this short piece that I have written. Thank you so much.

Showstopper's Yesterday

The 12 inch heel, the confident gait, The measured steps, the sudden halt, The blush on cheeks, the smoldering eyes, The hands on hips, head held high, The silken gown, barely there, A tilt of neck, balanced well, The sultry glance, timed right, Perfect half twirl, played twice, With a graceful swirl, she turns back. The world looks on with stolen breath, Oohs, aahs, applauds, encores. The showstopper’s yesterday, Now hangs in a gallery, Fading parchment, guarded unnecessarily. No shadows of glamour come a-chasing, For vacant eyes and sagging skin, For shattering illusions, hanging questions, Am I never going back?

Faint glimmer in heart

Ripe autumn air’s come to bless. Showering sweet November caress. We could be holding hands and walking, Silent but still talking. Faint glimmer in heart. White winters, no flowers in sight. Frosty December moonless night. And here I am hoping for your arm, To keep me safe, to keep me warm. Faint glimmer in heart. The year twenty twelve is leap they say. Oh! I can hope some more, there’s one more day. Hope for smiling summers with you, Hope for blessings to rain through. Faint glimmer in heart. Dying, not yet vanished, There’s a faint glimmer in this heart. Linking with Trifecta : Week Fifty Linking with Velvet Verbosity : 100 Words

The pain is all gone

It wasn't the first time. And it would not be the last. She could not stand them suffering like that. She asked for his consent. He expressed his willingness in whimpering sounds. And the pain was gone – forever. Linking up with Trifecta : Trifextra - Week Nineteen
