Pit…Pat…Pit…Pat. Pit. Pat. Pit. Pat.
Rain; it resembles sadness. Loss. Remorse, to most. For her, it meant happiness, rebirth.
He came home on a rainy day, bloody and torn from battle as he stod in the entrance way of the Konoha gates. Their home.
"Sasuke-kun, will you ever love me?"
Pause.
"No, Sakura."
Silence.
If only you knew how much it hurt.
The irony she felt when it rained. Oh, how she knew her heart ached. All her life, rain had resembled tears; her tears. Whenever she cried it was because of him. It always rained.
This is utopia.
Why does it rain?
The lights have died down.
Tell me who you are.
Let me in.
"Sasuke-kun! You can't leave me!"
…Thump.
"You're annoying…Sakura."
Smile.
Today, the sun shone brightly as birds chirped their songs. As the girl sighed deeply, brushing her hair in the mirror, her jade eyes eyeing the cuts on her arms. Scars are memories not meant to be forgotten. But who needs scars when the wounds are still open. Raw. They aren't able to be healed. The ones on her heart will never go away.
Help me, I'm drowning.
This sadness you've caused is too much to bear.
Why are you leaving me alone?
Thump….thump…Th-
"Sakura…I love you."
"I know Sasuke…I know."
Silence.
Her life was meant to be lived in irony. She was to be toyed with, to live by Kami's rules. For he took her love away on March 21st. A day after her birthday; the first day of Spring. A time when sunlight hit the faces of the people below, enveloping them in warmth. Except for her. Her love died in her arms that day.
For she was drowning. Drowning in the sunlight.
It was the rain that brought her happiness. Just like the day he came home.
Boundaries are meant to be crossed.
Rain is meant to fall.
Sun heats the earth.
She lives by only one law.
"Sasuke-kun…We weren't meant to be."
Silence.
Thump…Thump…Thump
"I know…Sakura."
Silence.
