Clockwork of Love

A cliche and angsty love story...

A simple confession

"I like you"

An unexpected realization

"I do too"

That was the beginning

A kiss now and then

A hug no matter when

Smiles exchanged everytime

Is all this happiness a crime?

That was the sound of gears turning

Elegant girl, so they say

Without me knowing, stole him away

A cruel smirk danced across her face

As she twirled around in her dress of lace

That was her winning

A decision made

"I apologize"

Her vision began to fade

"I finally realize"

That was her falling

A deafening scream broke through

Eyes widening, he knew

Thinking that it was a lie

Until he saw her whisper "Goodbye"

That was the beginning of the ending

Another death two days later

He thought it was for the better

In one hand, he clutched a letter

Saying he was glad he met her

With a bitter smile, he dove

For the sake of his first love

In his dying moments, he dreamed

Of her last words, or so it seemed

As they both arrived at death's door

"May we meet each other once more"

Not difficult to understand at all. It's a cute, but poignant piece. My favorite lines must be "As they both arrived at death's door / "May we meet each other once more". Very sweet, very sorrowful, very youthful. Keep it up.

Thank you for taking time to read and review :) I thought that maybe it didn't flow as well, but I'm glad you liked the end
