"Why doesn't she understand the dangers of throwing these parties?" I ask myself as I angrily walk away from the naive princess. "She can be so difficult."
I sense there's something in the wind
That feels like tragedy's at hand
And though I'd like to stand by her
Can't shake this feeling that I have
The worst is just around the bend...
I stop when I hear a soft sob and looking back I notice that I have cause her to cry. "I'm sorry Poppy," I say in my head. I don't like seeing her so upset because of something I have said but it has to be this way. I am not losing anyone else I care deeply for.
And does she notice my feelings for her?
And will she see how much she means to me?
I think it's not to be...
I watch as her friends rush to her side to comfort her and to help wipe the tears I had caused. They give me ugly glares and I can sense how much they dislike me. "Poppy, why do you even try to help this party pooper?" they ask.
"Because every troll should be happy," I heard her reply softly as I turn away from them and start to head back to my bunker.
I really want to join in on the fun, trust me I really do but i can not. I wish they would just understand that all I want to do is protect them from suffering the same fate as I had suffered.
What will become of my dear friend
Where will her actions lead us then?
Although I'd like to join the crowd
In their enthusiastic cloud
Try as I may, it doesn't last...
I turn back one last time to see Creek by her side and I feel my heart sink. I hide my true feelings from her with a mask. I slowly turn away with my head down, my heart yearns to be with her but deep down I know she could never love me like she does him.
And will we ever end up together?
No, I think not, it's never to become
For I am not the one...
I heard this song today and decided to make a short story using it. I hope you liked it. I thought it sounded like something that Branch might feel...
