In some far away town, outside the realm of our earth but not so dissimilar as to be alien, was a night sky. It covered half the earth, and under its shadow were people entwined by a cruel string of fate. On the bridge, above the river, moonlight their only glow in this silent scene, a single tear fell an eye. Not hers but his. Frank was his name,in his eyes, the one who they shed a tear for was as pretty as a midsummer's morn, they called her Dawn.1113Please respect copyright.PENANAPLRqIB16O8
[Frank: Dawn... go away... I'm no good for you...]
In her darling voice she spoke to him and held his shoulders so.
[Dawn: Frank... what are you talking about?]
He could hardly look at her, his words were so heavy he fell to his knees.
[Frank: They say, "stay with him, he'll be good for you", but that couldn't be further from the truth. Dawn, I just wan't the best for you...]
[Dawn: Oh Frank, you're the only one I could ever want! You know I don't want to get hitched with that stuck-up, posh, Bradly.]
He looked up to her, moonlight around her head like a halo, he truly thought he saw an angel, but he had to speak.
[Frank: Dawn, I just want whats best for you and I know I can't give that to you, but he can. It pains me to say to. Think what a big man he'll be, think of the places you'll see... Now... Just. I'm so sorry, but, now think what the future would be with a poor boy like me. I can't have you live a life like that. I just can't, you deserve better.]
A gentle hum of nightly gale caused her to shiver at the words, so slight, so light.
[Dawn: Frank, you know that I don't care about that! I love you, and being with you is all I need to be happy-]
[Frank: Dawn, you don't understand! Dawn, go away! . . . please go away... Although I know I want you to stay. Dawn, you have to go away. I'm not good enough for you. You'r father made that abundantly clear.]1113Please respect copyright.PENANAgK10cU72Sw
"Father." She whispered under her breath.1113Please respect copyright.PENANA4Cc9B2zhVl
[Dawn: My father talked you into this? Is that why you feel you don't deserve me?]1113Please respect copyright.PENANAe7swEyytHa
He stayed silent, the clouds began its creep over the light of the moon. Once more, the wind howled. 1113Please respect copyright.PENANAtxQ7UgpvsV
[Frank: Please... go away...]1113Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZswN9li3S
He could look up at her no longer, to the ground he cast his eyes. Until he could hear the sound of weeping in the quiet. He didn't want to believe it, but it was her, she wept where she stood and fell to her knees in her night gown. He could only try to comfort her as his voice was cracking as well, the words could hardly pass through his throat.1113Please respect copyright.PENANAKFRBz1XuMn
[Frank: Baby, don't cry, it's better this way.]
[Dawn: You think it's better this way!? You're no man!]
She screamed at him. Lower and lower she sunk to the ground, her back fully exposed to what ever punishment his words would speak next.1113Please respect copyright.PENANAnBxozm0Srk
[Frank: Oh Dawn, you don't know how much this pain me too! You shouldn't live in this poor old town, you should go back to where you belong.]
[Dawn: Where I belong!? Where I belong!? Who are you to decide where I belong?! You think I want to be the rich girl out of town? No, I want to be the girl by your side until her final breaths! Why are you so selfish?]
[Frank: You think I want to be the poor guy who can't give you what you want when you need it? We can't change the places where we were born! Before you say that you want me, I want you to think what your family would say, think what you're throwing away! You have what so many other people want, I don't want to see you throw it all away. Now think what the future would hold with a poor boy like me! It's a lot of nothing, okay? I'm a lot of nothing, I can't hold a candle to what Bradly can do. You're better off with him...]
Her crying gradually wore away, she sniffled as she raised her eyes to meet his on this old stone bridge. With a new resolve in her voice, she declared.1113Please respect copyright.PENANAtnwLbuvUrI
[Dawn: Dawn, go away, I'm no good for you. Dawn, go away, I'm no good for you. Dawn, go away, I'm no good for you. Dawn, go away, I'm no good for you. That's all I'm hearing from you. But you know what. I am sticking with you whether you like it or not! I don't care what other people don't have, what I want more than anything else is you, you big lovable fool!]
She lunged after him and pressed her soul against his with a hug so grand, it widened his eyes and flooded her message to him so clear.
[Frank: Even if I can't buy you fancy things...]
[Dawn: Yes...]
She said with a smile.
[Frank: Even if I can't take you to fancy parties?]
[Dawn: Yes...]
A smile as well. He embraced her as she did he.
[Frank: Even if-]
[Dawn: No matter what, i will always want you.]
[Frank: Oh Dawn! I love you!]
[Dawn: I love you too!]
And so they embraced each other with mouths and arms, and once again the moon peeked from its curtain to shine its blessings on the love between these souls.
