• "I tink' dat I iz in luv…" the little naked boy said to his best friend, the sun. The boy's name was Kane, a child who lived in the clouds where his little brick house lay in an everlasting slumber in its pillow base. The child was immortal, he never slept, never ate, never drank, just lived. His big bright yellow eyes starred at the large floating mass of eternal fire known as the sun…and the boy's only acquaintance.
    "Watz dat friend? Yuu tink' dat it wont last!" Kane blinked a few times and then looked back up at the sun.
    "Ill make eet work friend! I put mah whole effort in dah relationsssship!" The boy innocently smiled at his friend.
    "Here iz ah picture of hur!" the child picked up a little photograph with a little rip on the top left of it. The boy looked down from his cloud to see his love; a cute little girl with little blue eyes that she hid with her long silky black hair, and whenever she smiled a sign of kindness and love filled the boy's heart.
    "Isn't she perfect?" Kane smiled in a daze of love as his heart felt as though they could grow wings any moment and fly down to her.
    "WHAT!?!" The boy looked stunned as he looked back up to the sun.
    "How iz I gonna get down yuu ask?" then it hit the boy, there was absolutely no way that he could just jump down to earth with her without falling to his death.
    "OH NO!!!" The boy started to jump up and down in a frantic temper.





    Many years past, faster than the boy could keep up with. He just watched the girl turn into a teenager, the teenager into a young adult, and the young adult into a lady. Now she was with a man who dressed in black and smoked a cigarette as much as possible. He tightened his fists as tight as possible every time they kissed and started to cry every time they said the words that he longed to hear from her tender lips "I love you". He watched in a hopeless sorrow as she walked with him around their small town, hoping that one day that he would notice him. After a couple of more years past; the woman was becoming more and more like her lover. Desolate, empty, and cold hearted; Kane missed seeing the girl's sweet smile that he often leaped in joy at just its sight; she now only wore a small and depressed frown.
    "Why she no smile no more?" the boy asked the sun. "Why does she not skip wif a pleasure of life no more? If she knew dat I waz here, and how I love her so…she would smile again…if only she knew" the boy sighed and a tear dripped down his soft delicate cheek and down onto the streets far below.


    One night Kane noticed that his love's boyfriend seemed quite irritated. Kane didn't seem to mind at first, because he had no interest in the man whatsoever but when he suddenly snapped and yelled at the woman, he paid full attention! The man slapped her and then pushed her in a dark and desolate ally. She started to scream and cry as he started to continue to raise his hateful voice. As soon as he saw what he did to her he stopped and apologized; then tried to kiss her as if to say that he still cared for her. She slapped his face, but he continued to put his disgusting lips onto hers. Then Kane started to panic!
    "Dat beast is hurtin' hur!!!" he screamed at the sun in hope for a response, "DO SOMETHING!!!"
    The man threw her on the ground and tore her shirt off and while still kissing her, punched her ribs making her cough up blood.
    "NO! NO! NO! NO! STOP!" Kane screamed as loud as he could, trying to get the man to hear his voice.




    The abusive boyfriend beat and brutally raped her in that ally until she suddenly stopped moving. The man quickly put back on his clothes and then checked to see if she was breathing; she was. Then he pulled out a pistol out of his large dark jacket and shot her twice in the head.
    The boy held his breath and felt as though everything else in the world silenced out just to hear those two gunshots. As the man walked away, leaving the mutilated corpse lying on the concrete floor Kane realized something completely depressing: Not only was the woman he loved dead, but she would never have known that she was truly loved. She would never know how much the boy loved her…and worst of all, she would never get to know him…

    The boy just sat on his little cloud as the sun completely set, forever alone, and wept.
