The Last Train: Farewell, My Love

They heard the announcement that their train was arriving in five minutes. They felt a surge of panic and desperation. They knew they had to say goodbye soon, but they didn't know how. They kissed again, more passionately this time, trying to memorize each other's taste and touch. They whispered words of love and promise, trying to comfort each other and themselves. They held each other as if they were holding on to life itself.

The train arrived and stopped at the platform. They heard the final call for boarding.

They looked at each other one last time, tears streaming down their faces. They smiled through their pain, trying to be brave.

They let go of each other slowly, reluctantly.

They sat down and looked out of the window.

They saw each other across the platform, waving and blowing kisses.

They heard the whistle blow.

They felt the train move and pull away.

They watched each other fade into the distance.

They closed their eyes and cried.
