Long and rambling AU: I found this when I was searching through the saved documents on my laptop. So here it is, on FF. So this is one of those totally random things that isn't about anyone at all, where your characters are nameless and it only takes you 15 minutes to write the whole thing? So don't expect anything phenomenal, because it's not. And Pyrolyn-776, it's predictable. I know. But I wrote it a while ago. And I'm still working on that fabulous idea. It'll come to me. Someday.

You angrily wipe away the tears
Those hot, wet tears
The ones rolling down your cheeks
And betraying you.
You told yourself
To hold it together
Until you got away
Far away
From here.
But those tears keep coming
And it doesn't look like they're going to stop
Anytime soon.
One tear
Becomes two
And two becomes three
Three becomes four
And four becomes a thousand
And before you know it you're crying
Crying harder than you ever have before
And you're running
Because you don't want him to see you like this.
You run
And you cry
Until you see your house
It's coming up
Just around the corner.
And you're bursting through the door
And tripping up the stairs
And your bag is left on the floor
Because it doesn't matter.
And you slam the door shut
You lean against it
And slide to the floor
And you cry.
Cry.
Cry.
Your head is in your hands
And you cry
Because he doesn't want you
Even though you've wanted him
For three long years
And the one day
You finally get the courage
To tell him
That you love him
He laughs
And laughs
And laughs
And he tears you apart
Ripping you to shreds
And he doesn't even care.
He doesn't know your name.
Or your favorite color.
Your favorite movie
Or song.
He doesn't know that you love lilies.
Or that you almost drowned the summer you turned seven.
And he never will
Because he's him and you're you.
And it will never be.
And you realize this
And it only makes you cry harder
Because you love him
But he couldn't care less
About you.
But somewhere
In the middle of all this
Something is hitting your window
You try to ignore it
But it continues
So you look
And he is there.
((He has always been there.))
He's throwing rocks at your window
And he thinks your name is beautiful.
He knows your favorite color is yellow.
That you love Titanic
And can't go a day without listening
To Taylor Swift.
He gave you a Lily
When you turned nine
And he was there
The summer you nearly drowned
And he was the one
Who pulled you out of the water.
And he's always been there
((All along))
For as long as you can remember
Much longer
Than the boy who broke your heart.
And then you're outside with him
And he's holding you
As you cry
And you realize
That he'll never tear you to pieces
And he'll never forget your name.
And he will never forget
Your favorite color
Movie
Song
And he'll never give you anything but Lilies
Or forget that summer you both turned seven
And he'll always pull you out
When the water gets too deep.
And he'll always be there
For you.
And now you can't even remember
What was so great about
What's-His-Name
In the first place.
