Together

  • Yannis Mouhoun
We are what to hope for that’s out of reach.
Together is a poetic short-film about unconditional love. A story of two voices with a single direction carried by two passionate and fusional human beings who choose to bind their fate. Together depicts a total vision of love, between confined idyllic universes and resistance to modern society. Fast paced and accessible, this appealing and radiant work hopes to inspire and gather many around a yearning for absolute.

Together
Do you remember the west coast ? In October when the songs of birds are still heard And those furious growling waves That we used to watch, together.
You are the kind of girl we name hurricanes after A natural disaster Uncompromisingly swift and beautiful Deadly, triumphant An exception of nature
You are a rising king A troubling, playful man both looked up to and feared A child’s soul in a somber suit Firmly rooted at the feet Eyes wandering in endless skies.
If you stay, then I won’t go But if you go I’ll always be there Restlessly praying Until the day shows light again But honey can’t you see ? You’re my beginning and my end And our love is but a realm Which flags we hold proudly Floating, just as we are, in endless winds.
We are shooting stars, just out of line Doomed from the start, but how we glow Our love is universal, and rightful And so justice is what we seek The tremors hold a bit of our poetry As we persevere through the void…
We are what to hope for that’s out of reach An insolvable equation A mistake on account of chance We are absolute and a reason to believe All that’s humanly perceivable would have us think we don’t matter But we perceive humanly, no more.
Today I swear to god We’ll overcome illness, maybe death We’ll overcome weakness, and the lies I’ll heal the wounds inside your eyes Bury your foes in shallow graves We’ll find our answers in the waves For all these times we faced loss and pain For all these times our tears ran like rain My love is deep beneath my skin Time escapes us I can hear them coming.
