Two hands came together unexpectedly in a collision of feelings
It was a dark time
The fires burned
The red and black was so beautiful to their eyes
Smoke filled the air and the faces
Destruction was there
The world was grey
But their skin was alive with color and electricity
Sharing a stolen moment gave the joy of their lifetime
Others had jealous rage
The soldiers did their sordid job
With only these few words they shared love the world never knew
The darkness overcame them
The insistent goodbye was convinced upon their souls
It was calm as they told each they would meet again
The last thing they felt was their hands slipping away
One hand slowly slipping away until only fingertips touched
That moment lasted for an eternity
