~The world is too much with us, late and soon…
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;

The world, for us, is about to end. In another room our friend is getting ready to push a button that will end our world. In yet another room, another one of our friends is getting ready to try and survive our end. If this works he will remember, but will never be able to tell us. To do so would be ending another possible world, maybe a world where we might be together, so he will never tell. He will keep this world that we created locked in his heart.

I do not envy his task, but I do, for he will remember this world that we made. This world filled with our love.

I remember how young we were. How stubborn we were, how we pushed and pulled away and towards each other. I hope this time, if this plan works, we will be wiser. That it will be better. I do not want to see you in pain again, because even if I don’t remember this, to see you in pain will always break my heart, not matter what else I tell myself.

I love you, deeper than I ever thought I would be able to. You awakened my soul again. Hopefully, our younger selves will figure this out sooner rather than later, but I doubt it. We were both too stubborn then.

I hold you tighter.

It’s almost time. Our world is about to end, and even though I will not remember it, if we survive this, I will always be glad for what this ship allowed us. Fifty years of love. Fifty years of you by my side. I love you. You know this, and as the ship begins to shake I hold and whisper the words in your ear, in the empty hope that they will stay with you after. You do the same.

The world ends.

Time blinks away.

Time begins again.

Two hearts beat again at the same time.

Three words float in the back of their minds.

** The End **
