Summery: How contending is it to watch others sleep. Sequel to Standing in the Shadows
Feed back: Yes. I am 100% more likely to write if I have reviews, bad or good.
Disclaimer: If I owned any of it, I would share it with its fans. (How fun would it be, my fellow fans, to see our stuff acted out on TV. Does TNT or Top Cow need writers?)
I stand here watching. Watching in this freezing winter that I doubt will be ending anytime soon. Any other person wouldn't have bothered. But I am not any other person. I am different, what others classify as freak. I don't care what they think; I care only what you think. Like a school boy with a crush. But my emotions go past that of any crush. Wielder, can you comprehend what you do to me. No abuse, physical or mental, can compare to the moments I hear you utter your up most hate for me. Nor can any paradise be praised above the moments you smile and speak in fairer tones. Do I seem as enigmatic to you as you do to me? It's like playing a game for the first time. Only, this is the one time I will play. No one else will tempt me to join them in their game. I wish you would only understand it isn't the object on your wrist that draws me to you, but you yourself. Do you have so little confidence that you can't understand that someone would actually feel for you without wanting something else?
I am not one to talk of confidence, or I wouldn't be here, standing in the shadows. I would be by your side. To stop visions from entering your dreams. To protect you even further. Instead, I selfishly stand here while you struggle through the night. Alone. How I have made my own hell by not informing you of what I conceal beneath me. Wielder, with only one word, I would leave all I know for you. If only you could accept me, were I to give out a proposal. I see you're still awake. Still struggling with all that has been placed upon your shoulders. But only you, chosen warrior among mortals, have the strength to handle this destiny. And only you could have brought emotion to this form of a servant. Something so beautiful, I felt tears warm my face. Something so joyful, a smile found it's way to me. And something so warm, I can stand this wind. I will not leave, but have no strength to come further. Rest now. I pray silently to any god that will listen to protect you while I can not. To give you the peace I can not bestow. And I will stand here, until you let me in to see the light. Until then, I stand in the shadows.
The End
