• She knew it existed, this unraveling grace known as love. She never knew that she would find it in the place that had been her saviour. Each statue of different lives roamed around within these boundaries, lives she didn’t intend on getting mixed up with. That was until she saw him, at the top of the stairs emitting such a glow that it was impossible not to be drawn towards him. As she stepped closer, his stunning ochre skin became more visible, nearing perfection, and his cheekbones were tenderly shaped like a sculptor. As she studied his gratifying features, she knew that this discovery she found in him, would age in time, but his beauty would never falter.
    He was born into her life, this piece of art that could never waver in appearance or soul. There were many that would glance at him, but only one that could take in the true meaning of his existence. She aspired to be this one. Even though the creator was anonymous, it was as though this great symbol of art and passion was magnetised to the very depths of her heart, and the extremity force refused to slacken. Every time the distance between them shrank, it whispered essences of the future she one day wished to possess. That she could belong in this painting with him, frozen in time on the completed canvas of memories shared between their hearts, and a true representation of their story.
    There were many that refused to understand and sometimes it got to him, but through the obstacles, the happy ending was always in sight and nobody’s opinion could destroy that. After a while she noticed that she wasn’t the only one who acknowledged his obvious beauty, this made her compete to be enough for him so that her gaze was the one that released the very best version of himself. However the stakes were high and the obstacles were undefeatable and the happy ending she desired was clouded with the doubts he expressed.
    They both fought for what they believed would bring them elation, even if this meant sacrificing important people in their lives. They just wanted a chance to show that they found bravery in one another that made them put their faith in infinite possibilities. She didn’t want to lie and delude those that trusted her, but his wit and charm insisted her to take the necessary measures that would ensure their commitment.
