About This Quote

In the midst of a fierce storm, a young man found a woman who was so beautiful it took his breath away. She was so real to him that she seemed able to sit on the very edge of the world. The boy had been so afraid of losing her that he had dreamed about her night after night. In his dreams he had been able to touch her and see her, and in the last few minutes of his life she had come into reality right in front of him.
