《A/N: Just a little drabble that came to mind when I decided to play my music and this song was up first. It immediately hit me and i felt as if i should write this for Rika.

I promise I'll get to my fic. I just really wanted to write this out, or this idea to write something relating to this song and Rika would just continue to bug me. :p》

(Surrender by The Hurts)

~• -- •• -- •~

Broken and exhausted, physically, mentally, and emotionally, I have no more strength left in me, nor the will to keep denying what I've done.

I open my eyes, void from any tears of which I can no longer shed, as if I had emptied all that I can.

The guilt eats away at me.

The faces of all who I cared for staring back at me.

Staring at me

...

the monster.

I let my darkness consume so much that i let it blind me.

I allowed it to hurt the ones I claimed to want to save.

I see hurt and hatred amongst them.

Disgust at what I have done.

I dont blame them.

Why should I?

I ... deserve this.

I deserve this.

I say this over to myself

I deserve this.

I turn my eyes away.

I can no longer bear to see their faces, though I know it's what I deserve ... I cant.

I softly tread to the room I was placed in and I close the door.

It's not surprising no one comes after me.

The room is dimly lit.

The curtains still shutting the outside world out.

But ...

I can see a faint beam of light, stretching it's thin arm out as if it were beckoning me.

Hypnotized by the thought, i walk towards it.

I reach out my hand and draw the curtains back.

The sun hits me.

Splashing me in it's radiant rays like waves.

I can feel the warm comfort it provides.

I stare at it, shining in all its glory.

My breath hitches.

A lump forms in my throat.

And I begin to cry.

Falling on my knees, I cry before the sun.

I bow to it's light.

As I let it embrace me, I embrace it.

I let the mighty sun banish the darkness within me and I ...
