"Remember who you really are"
Chiodos "A Letter From Janelle"
Why can't he see?
Those eyes that shine with the most intense grey
those eyes are far from blind.
They see, they see, they see
everything
but they just choose to ignore it
because, baby, it's easier that way.
If he pretends not to see it
then it doesn't hurt so much
(at the moment.)
The time will come
he knows it, you know it, we all fucking know it,
when his whole world will colla-p-s-e
and all that pain will hit him at once.
He knows it
(it scares him.)
But, for now it doesn't really matter.
Now, he chooses to ignore that
with every inhalation
with every step
with every exhalation
he is getting
c-l-o-s-e-r
cl-o-s-e-r
clo-s-e-r
clos-e-r
close-r
closer
to that moment
when the dam breaks
and he falls with it.
All of the missed moments
with family&friends&you
will make themselves known.
He'll regret
but regrets don't get
anyone
anywhere
because it's too late.
He's lost everything in this damned world
his brother
his best friend
his you
over something meaningless
over something that's going to kill him
in the
e n d.
And she, that evil succubus
with no intention
to cradle his heart
&with every intention
to lead it into darkness
She's hanging onto his arm
like he was some object
like he was just another boy
(he's not, he's not, he's not)
Her sickeningly sweet whispers
are telling him
whatever
he wants to hear
and he's buying them
he's holding onto them
(because he has to hold onto something.)
It kills you to sit back
and watch this plan fold out
because you know she doesn't give a
shit
about him
but it's not your place to say anything.
x
So, darling, you have to simply
wait&hope&wish
that someday soon
his cold grey eyes will
see
what's happening
before it's too
l a t e
before he becomes too tangled in her web
before he gets in too deep with the darkness
before he becomes too b-r-o-k-e-n for repair.
but, more than anything
before he forgets the person he was
(the person you love(d))
The lyrics at the beginning belong to the band "Chiodos."
This was done from the pov of Aaralyn, who is one of my OCs. "Wishing on Stars" and "It Doesn't Really Matter" are other stories of mine with her in them. The "succubus" mentioned is also another OC of mine from "It Doesn't Really Matter."
I love that fanfiction helps me sort out my thoughts. It's hard to think that I never used to write it, haha.
Thanks mew for betaing! *Hands a basket of Bills*
