“A much needed relief”

With a last hurtful smile, the sun beamed one last time before dissipating into the horizon. Flickering shades, disappointedly due to the uneventful day. As her cue stirs her wake, she rises, spilling her silver silhouette on the ground.  The clouds continued expressing their eminent grief, by producing large tears that swamped all in sight. Each droplet fell softly against silver-lit leaves and swayed lightly before reaching the ground.  The repeating droplets followed the same path as the later, emitting a sinful hum of contempt.

Disturbing the long reigning silence, came a boy. He ran. Escaping his worries, he made his way through the thickness of dropping moisture. As he moved, one leg before the other, he couldn’t help but feel lonely and bruised. Even though the pasture was peaceful, it was now being disturbed by his movements, and his legs kept getting trapped amongst the vines. The glowing silver nonchalantly traced the contours of his face emphasizing the blue orbs that streamed. His feet continued its sprint-rhythm which now blended with the sinful hum of contempt, creating a new sound; unknown to the night beforehand.  The sound echoed his ears, but all heard was shouting. Screams, one after another, continuously following his steps. The blurred hazed he traveled through allowed him to escape. Feeling that momentary burst of emotion stung him; deep.  As he fell to his knees, a new annoyance seeped through the scared old bush. Rushing forward, the girls legs could carry her no faster, she fell. Being pulled out of his pitiful haze he turned and fixed on her; only her.

Her eyes seemed to bore directly into his, reflecting his actions. He stuttered at the rage boiling beneath his skin, and instantly hissed at the sensation the cool wind blew. Even though her eyes mirrored his actions, hers seemed darker in the silver tint, and stayed stable all throughout the battle his eyes held. Their eyes battled for dominance on either one. Each was hoping praying that the other would fail and succumb to one. The boy felt a new confidence rise through him as he saw the resent in her eyes grow. The battle carried on with no stop. She glared and he stared, nothing changing. The tension between both grew almost palpable. Shimmering, the silver light began to descend, no longer lighting those eyes, which still held a lingering battle. The water that had continuously splashed during the silent upheaval froze. As the boy stood the girl reached out, grabbing a fistful of his shirt in her tiny hands. The boy froze mid air, between rising from the floor and kneeling. His eyes turned faster than his head, as he watched her big now brown orbs melt into tears. Out of pure instinct he reached for her and hummed a slow lullaby, similar to the one they had created moments ago. The rustle of the grass, the hum of their silent cries and the dull thump of rain falling, but all that had stopped moments ago.  No longer did the rain fall, no longer did they argue, and they were now enclosed by a yellow beam gleaming instead of dull silver. Rising higher than the day before, yellow spilled all throughout the horizon. Finally finding some courage the girl tilted her head and stared at his face, not his eyes but his face, his lips. She needed him, she wanted to convey her feelings without her eyes betraying her. So she did the only thing she could do: she kissed him. The boy was jolted with surprise and almost fell, but her hold was strong and her lips warm. He remained still until he felt it, she did care. And at that moment nothing mattered, not even their disloyal eyes because they were in each others arms sharing a kiss no one could describe, and their eyes were…closed. At that instant the rain fell again, and hard. But none cared, they just held on tighter than before. The song resumed and finally they both found a word, lyrics to the lullaby; love.
