Hi Kiarra

Waiting a long time to read the last chapter of this series.

I loved all the narative and poems. While reading I feel like I am part of this couple's very lovely and intimate moments and feel the need of turning away.

Hope you will be completing this story. With the show ending , this is one of the stories I would like to come back to again and again.

Hey!

Kinda dropped off the radar completely but I do remember that I needed to complete this story. It's also a story that is quite close to me, but sometimes life takes over.

I have no idea how the show ended, I stopped watching as soon as Esha entered the show.

I am finally finding my bearings to write again and finish this piece.....I don't even know if the forum is active anymore lol.

Chapter 5: Memento Mori

Your presence comes into me like a dream,

Eliciting the deepest secrets which I dare not whisper even to myself,

Opening the shackles and unburdening my soul,

You feel like an eternal promise of oneness,

Come what may,

I’m falling into an endless pit, hastily reaching out to your outstretched hand but the forces of darkness pull me away from you,

I see the pain in your eyes, like you’ve died a thousand times in this moment,

Or perhaps, you've lived this moment a thousand times,

I don't know...

You are fading away, like a distant memory....

Don't let go, my mind screams!

I abruptly wake in sweat,

The dream has come to an end, but I find myself longing to go to sleep one more time,

Wishing a reappearance, praying the stay be longer this time,

But you’re gone and your presence lingers in the wake of the night, like the lonely scent of the wet mud after a night of downpour,

I know not if I dreamed of you or was it just the figment of a utopian world I seem to often fancy these days?

The days pass me by but it is the nights that worry me,

Will I see you again? What if I don’t?...

What if I do and then cruelty separates us once again?

The sky cracks open once again, but the night is quiet,

I feel myself sinking into the heaviness of the comforting blanket…

Everyone here is familiar, smiling and going by their day as usual,

I suddenly spot you in this crowd of new strangers,

they’re all running away to take cover,

I don’t know why,

But you stay…nothing makes sense,

I cannot tell between reality and illusion...

This upside down is like slow poison,

There is a familiar scent in the air, like wet mud after a heavy downpour,

And I know it is you, ask me not how..

Seemingly aware of my eyes burning a hole in the back of your head, you turn,

I feel my world turning with you,

Your eyes have a knowing glint, as though you recall our numerous encounters in the realm of my dreams,

But how could that be so?

And then you smile! I am disarmed.

My heart is spiraling in and out of a strange intoxication, yet the feet remain fixated, as if acutely aware of the shattering that is to ensue,

But you’re still smiling, unabashedly, oh so gorgeous!

You draw closer, stretching out your arms but I am grounded like a tree that’s lived to see the excruciate passing of eras,

I feel my heart racing, or is that yours?

Are you feeling the intoxication too?

My soul cannot bear another disappointment,

It’s as though I’m inching closer to death each time we are separated, yet life refuses to forsake me,

As if there’s someone waiting to hold my hand and take me away to a land of splendor,

I tightly close my eyes and wait to wake up....for the dream to end,

But I don't, this dream isn’t ending..

You’re still there when I open my eyes,

I am still here,

The distance between us is reducing and before my mind can make sense of this intoxication, I find myself in the warmth of your arms, pressed tightly to your chest,

Your heart is racing too...!

Am I still dreaming? Per chance, may I have slipped into a never-ending slumber?

Or have I found myself walking into your dream?

Is this where we meet, in one another’s dreams?

The lines are blurry, but I don’t seem to care, for this is what I’ve lived for all along,

A loving so passionate that the world of wakefulness and slumber seem alike,

And all the soul wishes to do is douse this eternal fire of an immeasurable longing to find a soul,

To find you, only you,

Life after life...

If it is a dream, then I wish it an eternity…

If it’s not, then I’ve lost myself to you, for another eternity.

Let’s walk this distance, hand in hand, this one time,

Or one more time,

Remember, we must die,

If not today, then tomorrow or the day after...

But know this my love,

I will find you in all lives, come what may,

until there are no more to live.

Flowing into each other,

After eons of waiting,

Like a river into an ocean,

But what separates them,

If not time, again and again?

An illusion, like a poem inked on water,

It all passes,

You and me,

We aren’t above our destiny,

Remember, we must die,

Come, hold my hand tight,

So that when we pass,

Our love lives on,

Waiting to reunite,

like a river into an ocean,

One more time,

This is our forever.

END.

Hi everyone,

I am back, if you remember me. I've been having a difficult time catching up on the forum or even finishing this one story I've held close to my heart. Very close.

I wrote this end last night. It came to me while I was asleep and all I could do is wake up and jot it down. Been writing an end to this story for months but nothing seemed good enough to publish until this little prose came to me last night. It also happens to be drawn from a very vital part of my real life. We all draw inspiration from our lives or our surroundings. I hope it appeals to you.

There was no better way to end this story. Memento Mori means "Remember, we must die" but death is not the end. Lovers meet, life after life, until there are no more lives to live. That is the idea I had in mind to give this story a farewell. It's not happy, its not sad. There's a continuation within the end.

To everyone who has followed this story, I truly thank you from the bottom and also for waiting!

I hope I have lived up to the expectations but if I failed, know that this was the best I could do.... :)

Best wishes,

Kiara.

Yup, Kiara it is!

Updated.

Don't kill me if you don't fancy the end haha!
