Salvation
by All Mighty Me

First original fic. Wow. Anyhow, this fic is purely mush. Not very mushy mush, but mush nonetheless. Inspired by an old photo found in the attic...

Oh, and thanks to METMA Mandy for proof-reading!

Those were beautiful days, at the sea, so carefree... without responsibilities. Only you and I -- and the radiant flowers you brought me every morning. Beautiful: the rising sun and the slow, sinking sunsets. The beginning of each day was like a new page in our lives, and the end brought new horizons into sharper relief...

Night isn't evil. Its poesy is within itself, composed of starts. The cool, refreshing breeze encourages thoughts of love. This is what it is, what it ever was.

Once, you asked what the sea represents for me. I couldn't answer then. But now I can; it's our love, so wild and uncontrollable, like the sea waves. They can kill or revive. They can express passion or hatred. An element.

It's possible: you were my life. In the day, only with you, the night only about you. I loved you, and our extraordinarily stupid conversations, incomprehensible to any logically thinking mind. But isn't that the essence of love, after all?

Our love was illogical, unpredictable, unthinkable... but our rational minds are only an insignificant drop of water in the sea of our true selves, and that primal feeling we shared. The sea is not only a blob on the map, starting here, ending there -- it's space.

For those that don't comprehend love as freedom, as an impenetrable, sacred space created by 2 people sharing an emotion, for those that don't regard the sea as wild, untamed water: you haven't yet tasted true love, haven't had such a deep connection with another being. A connection so profound and overwhelming that you seem to be one, you don't know anymore where you begin, and where the other person ends.

I know that you understand me perfectly well. You are free like me, free with me, like the uncontrollable waves of water and the hot, scented wind.

Those days, they weren't only a challenge.


They were salvation.
