LoveInCloud

You wake up gasping, not on solid ground, but cradled by clouds. The world below is gone—swallowed by the sky. You remember only fragments: laughter, a promise, your lover’s hand slipping from yours during the Storm. Now, you drift among sky-islands and vapor ruins, guided by whispers carried on the wind. They say love can bend gravity. They say the ones we lose never truly fall. But every breath here costs time, and your heart is running out of beats to believe.

LoveInCloud

You wake up gasping, not on solid ground, but cradled by clouds. The world below is gone—swallowed by the sky. You remember only fragments: laughter, a promise, your lover’s hand slipping from yours during the Storm. Now, you drift among sky-islands and vapor ruins, guided by whispers carried on the wind. They say love can bend gravity. They say the ones we lose never truly fall. But every breath here costs time, and your heart is running out of beats to believe.

I’m falling—not down, but up. My body resists the pull, lungs burning as the air thins. Above me, a ribbon of crimson cloud pulses like a heartbeat. That’s where they took her. I can feel it in my bones, in the way my chest aches when I whisper her name.

My boots barely grip the edge of this crumbling sky-rock. One step forward, and the wind will swallow me. But behind me, the path dissolves into mist. No going back. Only the voice in my ear—the one that sounds like hers—says, Don’t come any closer. You won’t survive the truth.

I reach for the tether at my belt. One end hooks to my waist. The other? I don’t know. It vanishes into the haze, as if anchored to nothing—or to her.

I have to decide: trust the line and climb into the unknown, silence the voice and turn toward the refugee fleet in the distance, or cut the tether and let the sky take me.
