This weeks words:

Two souls with but a single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one.




They’ve known each other since first grade. She was fair skinned, long wavy chestnut hair, blue eyes. His skin was dark, straight black hair, eyes like chocolate drops. From the first day of school, their first smile, they were inseparable. Giggles, whispers, passing of folded papers back and forth during class. Hearts began appearing on the notes. They started holding hands as they walked to and from school. The sixth grade dance, a quick kiss under the disco light. Everyone, yet no one saw the puppy love grow. Everyone, yet no one saw the changes slowly intruding the growth of love. Later, Everyone noticed when he appeared at school alone. Everyone noticed the tears on his face.

A teacher noticed him reading two separate sheets of paper in math class and asked him to bring the papers to her. With his head and eyes looking down, he shuffled his feet, and handed her the papers.

Dear Richard,

Molly was smiling last night. She said she felt your hand in hers, your body beside her, your lips touching her ear, as you whispered, we are, “Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one.” Although you were not there beside her, she felt your presence. She loved you with all she had. Enclosed is a letter she wrote for you when the doctor gave her the news.

Best Wishes,

Mrs. Hathaway

My dear, sweet, Richie,

Please do not cry. Instead, remember our love in the daises, under the moon and stars, and the warm sunny days. I will always be with you, for we are, “Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one.” I will always wait for you on the other side.

Love,
Molly
