I know I'm in the middle of two stories, but I'm having a severe case of writer's block on both. I might just have to take a break for a teensy bit, and just go back to writing shorties. Anyway enjoy! This is a songfic to "Valentine's Day" by Linkin Park. ~Kenny
My insides all turn to ash So slow
And blew away as I collapsed
So cold
A black wind took them away
From sight
And held the darkness of the day
That night
"Hey Wendy, look at what Kyle just gave me!"
"What is it?" I ask.
"Look, it's a necklace! It's got a little heart on it! He's so thoughtful," Bebe replies, holding up a little black box. Inside is a sparkling gold heart attached to a shiny gold chain. My stomach clenches as I feel something inside me break. The empty space that has been in my heart for a long time now feels bigger. Something is missing.
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so dissatisfied
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
As I walk through the halls I notice everyone's behavior. They seem happy and cheerful. I feel out of place all by myself, while everyone else is in couples. Today everyone seems warm and together. Why do I feel so cold and alone?
I used to be my own protection
But not now
Cause my path has lost direction
Somehow
A black wind took you away
From sight
And held the darkness of the day
That night
Everybody is talking, but all I can hear are my footsteps. They seem to echo off the walls of my brain, drowning all else out. I try to get out of the school as fast as possible. Outside, I lean against a tree and take a breath. Memories flood into my mind. Memories I don't feel like remembering. I push them out of my head and look to the sky.
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so dissatisfied
And the ground below grew colder
As they put you down inside
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
I feel a long sigh escape my lips. What is wrong with me today? I twist the bracelet that Stan gave me around on my wrist. Tears form in my eyes as I remember him. He could help me through this. But then again, he is the reason I'm sad.
So now you're gone
And I'm alone
I wish me and Stan had never broken up. He always gave me his best. He loved me like no one else did. He cared for me the way no one else could. But he was gone. But it's been a month, why should I start caring so much now? Why do I suddenly feel so sad? As I see a girl walk by with a heart-shaped balloon, laughing with her boyfriend, the answer hits me like a punch in the face.
I never knew what it was like
To be alone
On a Valentine's Day
Yes i know it ain't my best writing. Hell, it may be my worst. No... i've written a helluva lot worse. anyway, please review! I love reviewers! ~Kenny
