A Star-Crossed Wasteland
There is nothing out here in this world anymore.
Not since so much darkness engulfed it.
This decaying world that once had life.
Now all it carries is death.
Out here in this void of nothingness.
I found something...
When I wasn't looking for anything really.
I found something that I didn't think that I would find.
No one told me that there were strangers in the world,
that given the chance could become something that matters to you.
No one told me that my path would entertwin with another.
One who had almost as much pain as me in his lifetime.
No one told me that...
That I would find something new and.... beautiful out here.
In this wasteland.
It's not a fairytale.
And it's not the ususal love you'd here about.
Love...?
Is that what this is?
Could this really have happened...?
To someone like me?
Why me?
I don't deserve anything like this.
My life has been filled with nothing but pain and darkness.
But this person.
That I almost overlooked when I first met him.
He's been my light in this darkness.
My oasis in this wasteland.
My protection to the pain and danger that surrounds me.
He is the one.
The one that I have searched my whole life to find.
I found him.
In a star-crossed wasteland.
Not since so much darkness engulfed it.
This decaying world that once had life.
Now all it carries is death.
Out here in this void of nothingness.
I found something...
When I wasn't looking for anything really.
I found something that I didn't think that I would find.
No one told me that there were strangers in the world,
that given the chance could become something that matters to you.
No one told me that my path would entertwin with another.
One who had almost as much pain as me in his lifetime.
No one told me that...

The one that I have searched my whole life to find.
I found him.
In a star-crossed wasteland.
