As she wept against his shoulder she kept thinking of what might happen any second.
He didn't question why she was crying, he thought she would be happier to see him.
She suddenly stopped, realizing she was ruining the moments they had together.
She embraced him once more, and ran toward the sea, her arms flung out so she might hug the incoming wave.
He followed her and did the same, wanting to feel her new explosion of joy.
As the wave knocked them off their feet they laughed, not even thinking of who might be there.
They started swimming, wishing that it would never be dark.
They started to float with the slow roll of the waves, forgetting all about where they were.
She held onto him as if her life deepened on it.
He did the same to her.
Never once did either of them look back to the shore.
Suddenly vibrant vibes came from the ocean floors.
She laughed at it, she knew what it was.
Her cell phone was being called.
He laughed once he realized what it was.
Simultaneously she leaned into him and kissed his lips, just wanting to feel his lips brush on hers before something terrible happened.
He leaned back into her, sharing the same thoughts.
They stared there, lip locked, wishing that nothing would interrupt them.
Sadly this wish did not come true.
A siren louder than three train engines going at once started.
They looked up with their hair dripping wet from the salty water.
They started swimming to shore, wondering what would happen to them.
Impulsively the water began to shake terribly, drifting them apart.
She went toward shore as he drifted farther away.
He yelled to her and she yelled back, too distant to be understood.
She couldn't gather her thoughts the subject kept going back to how come this was happening to her.
As she came back toreality she remebered she must find help.
Then she thought, what if everyone has gone to shelter because of the alarms.
She quickly paddled toward him and he became more than a samll speck.
He came more and more clear to her as she paddled.
Soon enough she was in his arms once more.
They embraced eachother, only now their lives did depend on it.
She kissed him and he kissed her back until the salt water built up in their mouths from staying up surfuce.
They dipped under water, ignoring the thing most on their minds.
The new danger had surfaced with them as they gasped for breath.
To be continues.................................................(again, sorry).............................................


so with this there is no "or", it's both because they can be interchangeable ^-^
it just goes to show the power of human will can be more compelling then just plain fate-unless fate willed for the human's wills to be so strong
hmm Funny thing about fate, you never really know if you actually did defy it or if by fighting it you fit right into the plan
... I dunno, rambling I am, but awesome poem
