Behind These Hazel Eyes
A/N I wanted to write this after listening to the song "Gonna Build Me A Wall." from Shrek the Musical. It is a beauitful but sad song and it gave me the idea for this plus I wanted to do another fic like Promise and this came to mind. This is an one shot at the moment the same way Promise started out but might become a fic if people like.
Shrek sighed sadly as he sat up in bed that night. It'd been a month after leaving Far, Far Away. He liked living here in Duloc but something was missing, a void had been created in his heart of depression and sadness. He knew why but didn't want to think about it. For a while he wanted to cry but couldn't.
"It's okay to be sad about.... her Shrek. She was the only one who cared for you and loved you within, I can tell.
I am your heart after all." his heart told him as the tears welled within but couldn't release them. He had felt so lonely since Fiona had left for wherever she was now when they were younger. He wished he knew where she was right now.
He was now twenty but hurt more inside from other people and the coldness of the world blew upon him like a heartless wind. Being a noble hearted ogre was rough when people threw rejection and hatred in your face along with trying to hurt you because you were different.
He remembered that night when he'd made the wish on the star.
"We will be together soon, I know it but when?
I feel so alone.
I... miss her. She was my only comfort in this miserable life." he thought as a tear escaped from his hazel eyes.
He wore brown alligator pyjamas in bed.
He knew that today had been the day where people in every kingdom celebrated their love, it was called Valentine's Day. This day filled him with immense sadness and pain.
He wanted to be loved, accepted and to have friendship but was too afraid to ask.
He knew that ogres weren't supposed to have these things but he felt so lonely snd wanted friendship and love.
He knew he was different from the others.
But while his heart was in great sadness, all he could think of was the times he'd spent with Fiona when they were younger.
Then somewhow the pain would go away. But he wondered how she was doing in that tower as years had passed.
He then let them out, the tears he'd been holding in.
Someday the destiny he'd been dreaming of would happen but for now he would have to wait but Fate decided he needed a little cheering up.....
