The Meeting

Dear S.S.,

My eyes caught your eyes and your eyes caught mine. In that split second. The walls I had built for years came crashing down. My soul had nothing to hide behind and you could see everything. That's why I had to leave the bar but, why did you follow me?

You stopped me in the dark alleyway and called to me. I never wanted to look back but, your voice was too compelling. You almost sounded like you were pleading with me. Why would you do that?

I never told you my name because I didn't want this spark to turn into a blaze. I didn't deserve what you were suggesting in your eyes. We couldn't. We can't... because in our worlds. Angels do not fall in love with fiends. So I beg you to promise that you'll forget me. You didn't. In a way, I was happy but, that is also why I ran from you. You were killing me inside and I needed to get away.

Truly yours,

L.S.
