Last night you told me you loved me. You held me in your arms and looked straight into my eyes, the deepest caverns of your heart opening in front of me. Last night you told me how you want nothing more than to keep me safe and take me to a place far away from here, where there's nothing but love and acceptance. Last night you told me how you'd never felt this way before, how I was the first person you'd met that made your heartbeat quicken. Last night you cried and asked me why it was so hard for us to love each other, why people couldn't just see past gender and sexuality and see how much we loved each other.
"It shouldn't be this hard," you told me.
"I know." I held you like you held me and sang to you, my lips close to your ear. "They'll name a city after us, then later say it's all our fault."
You smiled. "We're living in a den of thieves. Rummaging for answers in the pages."
"And it's contagious."
We laughed. I remember thinking how right we felt together. We fit just right. It was like we were made for each other, our limbs knowing exactly how to piece our bodies together to make one being.
"Do you think they'll ever see?" you asked me.
"I don't know," I replied honestly.
"Do you think we'll ever be able to be together?"
Oh, how much I wanted to tell you yes. I wanted to tell you that we could find a way to overcome this obstacle and live happily-ever-after. I wanted to tell you that my heartstrings would always be tied to yours. But, I couldn't lie. Because I loved you too much to do that. "I don't know."
"I'm never letting you go," you told me, twining your fingers with mine.
Never say never, love. "I know."
Last night I watched as you realized that the world isn't as beautiful as we'd like it to be.
"It shouldn't be this hard," you told me.

Love is love. We'd all do good to remember that (: Especially people who find it fitting to damn people for loving someone. The last time I checked, it's not our place to say a damn thing on how other's live their lives. Stones and glass houses, people. Stones and glass houses.
The parts in italics (aside from "never say never, love." which is a thought) are from the song "Us" by Regina Spektor. I do not own them at all. (:

Although I can think of a couple edits, if you want them.
