two lovers at heart

and so, there they were, lying in bed. two tired bodies side by side. both sweating and heaving hard because of the blistering heat. the heat of the quarrel. the quarrel that nobody knew how it started, and no one knew what it was about. it was just about winning. he had to have his way and she hers. so although they were barely 2 inches apart, their souls were on opposite ends of the earth. he breathing fire and she ice. the air was heavy making it hard to breathe. he got up, fumbled in the dark and made his way toward the other end of the room. he felt for the switch and hit the button. and just like magic the air condition came on. the soft purring of the machine and cool gentle breeze of air cooled them down. just like that. they were inseparable.

and in that instant he grabbed her in his arms and pulled her close, burying his face in her chest. and in that instant he felt like nothing could tear them apart. not the violent storms, the huge gale or the roaring thunder could shut the words out. the words which rang so clearly in his head. “i cant live without you… i cant live without you…” they just repeated themselves like monks chanting the mantra. what she was thinking about he didnt know. all he knew was that he had to be man enough to keep on loving her.
