Tangled

The two were lying on the ground with the crowns of their heads barely grazing each other, both looking up at the stars together blissfully in each other's presence. In that space the time would pass unnoticed. Like roots of a tree creeping through the earth, their hair had grown towards each other. Each bit of hair carefully weaving with the hair of the other. By the time they had awaken from their revelry, they knew not what had happened. They struggled and struggled to free themselves, creating pain on both sides. Cutting the cords would be to cut a part of themselves. Remaining entangled meant learning and growing pains while the two had to learn to walk together side by side. With the passage of time cords lengthen allowing for increased freedom on both sides. But could the two make it in a union filled with many obstacles?
