Disclaimer: As cool as it would be to own Sonny with a Chance, I can't say that I do. I could imply it, but then I'd be a liar. So I'm just gonna come out and say it. I don't own Sonny with a Chance.
Okay, so after the fabulous Sonny with a Secret, I was put in the mood to write a one shot. But then I listened to Selena Gomez's song The Way I Loved You (amazing song, btw) and now I want it to be a little bit more like poetry. So here we go! AND I'D JUST LIKE TO APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE FOR THE F-BOMB USED. IT JUST SEEMED TO FIT.
The Light In Her Eyes
He longs to see her l a u g h again.
Because god, how he loved that laugh.
He never wants to see her c-r-y again.
The tears empty out his heart too.
He longs to hold her, to tell her that everything will be o k a y,
Because now HE'S there.
But he can't.
The light in her e y e s burned so brightly before.
But he was stupid back then;
And he watched as that flame became dimmer and dimmer.
(Until one day it burned out.)
That day, he remembered it so clearly.
He told her he l i k e d her.
Because he was too afraid to say love.
And her eyes s-p-a-r-k-l-e-d with joy.
(But he broke her.)
And now he can't be forgiven.
But what's worse,
[Is that he doesn't know how to forgive himself.]
He watches as the v a c a n t studio sits in the darkness.
{He can almost see her there again.}
He hears her laughter,
S-e-e-s her smile,
and it's all too much.
He remembers their first date.
(She overflowed with happiness that night at the park.)
He remembers the day they b r o k e u p.
"You're worthless, Chad!"
(Yeah, well he'd told her he wished he'd never met her.)
And now she was g o n e.
Her tears sounded in the rain.
Her laugh echoed in the wind.
She whispered to him in the fog.
And it's all too m u c h.
[He wishes he'd never told her to walk h-o-m-e.]
He should've sucked up his pride and driven her.
Maybe then she'd still be here.
He drives to Lookout Mountain.
The s t a r s remind him of her.
(He wonders if she's one of them now.)
She shone brighter than the rest.
Especially her e-y-e-s.
And he l o v e d that about her.
She had always told him to reach for the stars.
So he did.
He closed his eyes and whispered those three w o r d s.
'I love you.'
{And he hoped that wherever she was, she had heard it.}
When she had broken up with him,
That little light in her e y e s,
The light he loved so fucking much.
It burned o-u-t.
And so did his spirit.
So Chad watches, and w a i t s,
For something,
Anything,
To happen.
(But nothing does.)
He hears a whisper in the wind.
It sounds like H E R.
Sonny.
'I love you.'
[But he's not sure if it actually did happen.]
And god, he misses her so frickin' much.
So let this be a lesson.
Think before you speak.
Because s-o-m-e-d-a-y,
You just might lose the one you care about most.
Alright, you guys. Tell me what you thought! And, once again. I apologize for the f-bomb. I wouldn't have used it if anything else fit. I don't swear in real life. Like, at all. Even ask muffalo829. But freakin or frickin just didn't cut it. Anyway, sorry again, and I hoped you like this. I really like this style of writing when others use it, so I hope I did it justice. SMILES!
LOL
