OPTIMISM.

oo. | A FORBIDDEN LOVE.

________________

"There once was an angel, beautiful and kind.
This angel had fallen from heaven,
a place of light and life,
and of hope and peace.

There once was a demon, imperfect and shy.
This demon had escaped from hell,
a place of darkness and death, and of despair and pain.

When they met, their eyes met.
And without a spoken word,
the angel saw only tenderness and hurt in this lost demon.
The demon saw only compassion and love in this lost angel.

It did not matter to them if one had wings,
and the other had horns.
Yet, they saw themselves within each other.
Even though they were from two different worlds,
they embraced each other.

Though, they knew their love was forbidden by others like themselves.
So, they decided to remain here on earth, where their bond could not be broken.
The heart of the angel was no longer filled with loneliness and longing.
The heart of the demon was no longer filled with torment and sorrow.
Love is what they both were searching for.
And it was found on that very same day.
A forbidden love, everlasting for all eternity."
