Moonlight streams from the sky like a milky stream that flows through your life. It shines over a girl’s face. It makes her appear like a translucent angel that is nothing a mortal could ever imagine in their mind. Soft flows of red hair spills out of her hood like the moonlight. Her eyes are clear and an exotic blue. They are deep like an endless well of blue water. They sparkle with a hidden mystery.
Her lips are a moist pink. They are as pale as the kisses of death. Her cape hangs loosely around her frail figure. She glides so gracefully that it is as if she doesn’t even touch the ground. A shadow moves closer around her. It holds her tightly.
A smile plays across her lips as this happens. The shadow transforms into a mortal form. His features are handsome. They are not as dark as his shadow form. His hair is a light color, almost blond.
His eyes are as green as emeralds, but hold a strange darkness in them. The shadow is not evil. It wants all to think that, but it is a thing of beauty. It cares for the girl and loves her more than the world that contains them. His tall stature towers above the small girl.
He has a pale complexion and it makes him more like a ghost. He talks to her in such a low whisper that it is like a soft breeze that dances around your head. The girl softly kisses the lips of her mortal shadow. It appears as if they don’t even touch, like the shadow repels all elements. He is something that is truly unfathomable by any other mortal’s imagination, but the girl’s.
So who is this girl? What is she? An angel, a goddess? No, a simple mortal that has looked inside her once black heart and found love in this being. You can see the warmth of the love they share for each other circulate in their eyes.
There is a hint of an unseen, unknown emotion in his eyes. You stare in awe at these two figures, unable to move or think anymore. It is as if the shadow’s eyes have frozen you. You become very cold. Your body shivers spontaneously and uncontrollably as your teeth chatter loudly.
Your eyes become very heavy and close. You don’t remember telling your body to do that. The last image you see is the shadow, smiling at you. You try to think; to remember; to move, but your mind is only a blank. You remember nothing and it terrifies you to the core of your soul.
It really was something a mortal was meant to never see or imagine. Now you are doomed, as memories are all you have of the world and they are lost somewhere in space. Maybe the shadow now possesses all you know and feel. This will be what you will live your life searching for- your memories and the shadow that took them. Even the girl- for now you love her even though you’ve only seen her.
