My B-side

A girl and boy so in love got married young. They were both dreamers and longed to leave their sleepy town in search of great adventure. Neither could wait to witness the world hand in hand. However, they also longed for children to sanctify their marriage, their love. A plan was soon set to play; they’d have children early into the nuptial, raise them strong, send them on their merry way, and then tour the world. Five children made them proud and ever blessed. When the last left the nest the two made their preparations for travel The anticipation, the wait would make their journey all the better. But the wife received grave news, cancer. She died six months later, venturing no more than one town over ever. The husband’s grief never let up. He vowed never to see an inch of land that his wife could not view with him and in result never left his town, never saw the world, and never stopped missing her.
