The storyline in this pure fantasy but I guess the emotion's real enough. Rosalind Could we start again, please wipe the slate, start anew begin from the beginning? For I'm frightened, ill at ease Lonely, scared, feeling blue And my fears are winning. Hector My love, my love you don't see, pain and pleasure are entwined and what begins with surety becomes delusion of the mind. Rosalind My memories creep, silently they overcome my logic and beget the demon, sorrow they shroud me in their ragged lee and I cry out, please hold my hand I cannot face the morrow. Hector The past is past, it has no power to hurt unless you let it. I understand your sorrow dear But can't you just forget it. Rosalind Hector, Hector if you love me, you'll see my suffering end before the madness takes my mind I cannot stand insanity I am syphilitic, soul-sick and sore I ask you to be kind Hector My love, let me hold you gently as you, child-like, sobbing weep I'll caress your hair until you softly, softly sleep. Then Hector took his dagger and stabbed her in the heart. She gave a gasp, a tiny moan, her essence then did part and Hector in deep sorrow took his own life as well, now eternal they're together be it heaven or in hell. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Wow... Kethry, that's amazing... I loved it , how you made Rosaline's words longer and Hector shorter, it's known that women can open up more freely and man are kinda cheap in words... And the unexpected end... it was really awesome... |
