Drinking from the well of petrified tears...

We traveled so far too drink from this well of petrified tears...
We never expected this much.
Surrounded by statues of fallen angels...
Adorned in memories of fallen heroes...
We traveled to drink from this well... To get one wish.
That wish was to go back to our old days.
That wish was to be kids again... To enjoy life through an empty bottle.
When we grow up we leave the empty bottle... To see whats outside...
Whats outside is a fearful thing.
We wish to go back inside that bottle...
But we have to give up one thing important to us first.
We drop our necklaces that bind us together into the well...
What is this? I don't see our past. I see us turning to stone...
I think to myself... "I just wanted to see a stallion gallop across the moon one more time..."
My eyes staple shut...My palms clench...
Turning to stone...what did we do wrong?
Struggling to break free...Nothing can save us now.
I'm so sorry... It was my dream all along... Not yours...
Yet I made you come with me... and now we're both being taken...
Love is a strange thing...
You do whatever it takes to have it... But in the end you have nothing else.
...This well...
...This stone hell...
I look at you struggling... This is it... This is it.
We will never see the light again.
Never to see a stallion gallop across the moon, ever again...
Never to see our past.
I know what could've saved us from this horrible death.
Those necklaces didn't just bind us together... It binded our memories as well...
We could've still survived... But now we have nothing.
Memories...Love...Everything...Gone...
This is always what happens in the end.
