An: Random one-shot I though of while hearing : I Play Dead By Demon Hunter :) This type of writing are lyric to the song :D it's kind of short but I wanted to write it that way :)
I Won't Be Erased.
Play dead again. It just might stop before the end.
If I pretend you may not see the pain I'm in.
It was a dark cold night in the small forest outside the small town Steve lived. He sat on a rock, thinking, wondering and letting tears roll down his cheek. The latest days he had been pretending, pretending that he was okay, the latest days he put on a fake smile, a fake Steve. ''The Steve they love, the Steve they know. '' he muttered to himself. They only knew his happy side, his careless sides, this side of him was unknown to them.
He sighed and let his face fall to his knees '' Why do I bother? '' he looked at the star full sky and asked one question he had never asked before '' What god could damn a heart? '' he watched the sky and hoped for some kind of sign. But none came.
I won't, I won't leave without a trace.
I won't be erased.
He wouldn't let them be unpunished, these so called friends, the once who should notice his pain, those who should know him better. '' Those who should have seen past my fake smile, those who could have healed it at the beginning. '' Here he was, thinking about suicide, ending his own life, under the stars and yet, he smiled. This sadistic smile of his it made him look evil, and even empty.
'' I will die either way, why delay it? '' He let a hand run through his hair and he noticed some lose straws of hair in his hand when he took it out again. It was slowly killing him within, but he couldn't feel it, he did want to, he wanted to feel the pain, the agony. '' Stop being so dramatic Steve, it's not the words end, many die of this each day…. I'm not some kind of masochist. ''
It's in my head, I can't forget what you once said.
Steve remembered the doctor's words, those honey filled words. They didn't make it easier to take in, his family was in mourning, he was in mourning, but no one else would know, before it was too late. He slowly removed himself from any social gathering, he never spent time with his friends anymore, that would make it easier for them, when that day came.
He got up from the rock and jumped down from it, he started to walk towards his home.
I won't be erased.
Steve smiled, he wouldn't give up, he wouldn't. He would fight, for there was so much to fight for in life, he wanted life, he wanted to live his life to the fullest, even though this sickness. It was time to tell his friends, they would find out one way or another. The smile never got off his lips. He ran home, and he felt the early Autumn breeze in his face. Summer had ended, the first weeks of school had started, and he would live. '' I will survive ''
At the end of Autumn.
It was a cold day, there was snow in the air. A lonely woman walked towards the cemetery. The Autumn colors where everywhere, the cemetery was beautiful in her eyes. She sighed with tears in her eyes.
She walked towards a tombstone a placed a red rose in front of it '' There you go my boy, min proud of you. I have always been '' She let her tears fall down and hit the ground. '' My cute little Steve '' The tears came flowing and she looked towards the sky and asked as Steve had asked '' What god could damn a heart? ''
She left the tombstone alone and on the stone it was written.
Here Lies Steve Burnside ( 1995 – 2011 )
He died with a smile on his lips
