Hi everyone!
Here's a little fanfiction (if I can call it like that) based upon the song "Homeless" by Marina Kaye. I really thought about Tris the first time I heard it so I decided to write this.
I hope you will like it and, as English is not my first language; please tell me if I made any mistake.
Divergent and its characters belong to Veronica Roth and "Homeless" to Marina Kaye.
I'm Factionless
"In this house where i grew up
With cozy chairs and broken cups
Memories piled up to the ceiling
Can they tell what i am feeling"
The day just before the Choosing Ceremony was harder than I thought. My house, my family, I didn't thought it would be so hard to even think about leaving them and I had the feeling that my mother knew what I was about to do but I couldn't stay in this faction.
"I know this house outside and in
But three birds fly upon my skin
Lay my head down in the darkness
Like so many nights before this"
I can see my house just by closing my eyes, it was exactly the same as any other family. The three ravens on my collarbone give me some bravery to keep my head up during my initiation, they, mom, dad and Caleb, are always with me. While I close my eyes in the dorm room, I listen to the breathing of the others initiates to help me fall asleep.
"In this bed where i rest
I'm homeless
This house i know best
But i'm homeless"
The leaders keep telling us that they are our only family now but I don't feel like this, I miss my real family. I don't feel like I belong here.
"My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burn in my chest
I'm homeless"
I wish I was free to choose my life but it will never happen, I can't stop being Divergent and it will stay with me forever.
"Heavy steps on hardwood floors
Into my room trough broken doors
Try to leave this day behind me
But peace will never find me"
I can't stop thinking about the chaos in the Abnegation faction, my house was completely destroyed. I see this picture in my head every day, I will never be able to make it disappear.
"In this bed where i rest
I'm homeless
This house i know best
But i'm homeless"
I definitely do not have a home anymore. It's destroyed and my faction tried to kill me so now, I have nowhere to go.
"My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burn in my chest
I'm homeless"
I have the feeling that I will never be able to escape this situation and it's killing me. This will kill me.
"I have a place i can call my own
That's where i go till the night is gone
I travel my mind and into my heart
Nobody knows when i go that far"
Someone said one day that "Home is where your heart is" but my heart was with my family. Now, only Caleb is still alive and I have Four with me. I leave everything when I reach my memories of the time I was in my first faction with them. They can take anything but they can't steal my memories.
"In this bed where i rest
I'm homeless
This house i know best
But i'm homeless"
The factionless let us stay with them and I think that we are like them now but still, I don't feel like I belong here. I don't have a place anywhere.
"My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burns in my chest"
I want to get out of this, I want to kill Jeanine and this situation will be solved. I will pass the simulation and everything will be fine. At least I hope so.
