The Samanthian Love

Written by AP

Samantha is on a journey to find meaning in her existence and leave an indelible mark on reality. She faces obstacles as society and relationships fail to meet her ideals, but ultimately transcends them and finds a fulfilling and authentic reality.

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, a young maid by the name of Samantha did dwell. She was a maiden of high degree, with a heart full of longing and a mind full of dreams. Forsooth, she did desire to leave a mark upon the world and to find true love before her time on earth did end.

But alas, her quest for love proved to be a most vexing task. She did court many a suitor, but none did truly understand her and share her lofty aspirations. And so, she did despair, for she felt that she would ever be doomed to a life of solitude.

But fate did intervene, and brought to her a youth of noble bearing, one Jack by name. Their hearts did beat as one, and they did spend many hours in discourse, sharing their hopes and their dreams.

But alas, Jack’s ambition did prove to be a thorn in their side. He did seek to make a name for himself in the music world, and did oft neglect his fair maiden. And though she did try to understand, her heart did ache with the pain of neglect.

And so, it came to pass that Jack did receive an offer to play in a far-off land. And though it did rend Samantha’s heart in twain, she did release him to follow his dreams. But they did make a pact to keep their love alive through letters and visits.

But distance did prove too great a burden for their love to bear, and so they did part ways. And though her heart did bleed, Samantha did not let sorrow consume her. She did take up the gauntlet and strive to make a mark upon the world, as she had always desired.

And so, she did rise like a phoenix from the ashes, and did achieve great success in her chosen field. And though her heart did still hold love for Jack, she did learn that true love is oft fickle and cannot be forced or controlled.

And thus, she did live a fulfilling life, with nought but memories of her time with Jack as a reminder of the love that once was. Forsooth, in fair Verona, the story of Samantha and Jack did come to its bittersweet end.
