Against The Faiding Light

The silver of the sea rolled back and forth, breathing through its mists that clung to our faces, teasing our feet with its spray. We smiled and laughed, memorizing every detail of our faces as the setting sun wrapped us in its warmth. The glowing rays-- holding every color of the rainbow-- struck our eyes. We silently wondered how many more times we would share these moments before Time and Fate pulled us apart. We prayed: For another long epoch, and that fate would fall in our favor.
