He Stared Passionately
She Looked Away Indifferently

He Opened His Mouth To Greet
She Closed Hers To Ignore

He Wanted To Make Himself Known
She Wanted To Remain Invisible

He Sang Ballads Of Love
She Yelled Profanities Of Hate

He Wished For A Happily Ever After
She Wished For Nothing At All

He Admitted His Feelings
She Denied Having Any At All

He Claimed To Be A Hero
She Claimed To Be The Villain

He Kept To The Illuminated Ground Risking Nothing
She Kept To The Darkened Rooftops Flirting With Death

He Cried Out In Fear
She Laughed Shrilly With Bravery

He Stood Stock Still Begging
She Paced And Skipped Ignoring

He Reached Out To Help
She Pushed Away To Hinder

He Stood In Silence
She Fell With Screams

He Stared In Sadness
She Stared With Joy

He Saw It All In A Matter Of Seconds
She Saw It All In A Span Of Days

He Let Out His First Sob
She Let Go Of Her Last Chuckle

This is so sad, I swear that I saw the entire thing like a movie inside my head. Great job!
