Healing a Heart
Anger, Shame, Rage, Confusion, Disappointment
She couldn't describe what exactly she felt. All she knew was that her hands were starting to go numb. Her blonde hair loose, clinging to her sweaty figure. Hours she had been in the training room, for hours beating the shit out of the punching swaying violently before her. Her legs were sore, her bare fists red and throbbing.
It didn't matter, she didn't care. She kept going even though she winced every time her sickeningly white knuckles connected with the swaying mass. It didn't compare. Nothing could compare, she concluded her legs finally gave out and she slid to the ground. Nothing could compare to the pain inside.
If she was honest with herself-and others-,it wouldn't have been this bad. Its was pretty overly dramatic of her to react this way. But that's how she was raised. She didn't know how else to cope.
She huffed as she slowly glanced at the clock across the room.
1:42
Almost 2 AM. She needed to go to her room, she needed some sleep. But she could never sleep like this, she had a problem to fix. She would not be able to rest until she solved it. That's the kind of person she was. That's how she survived. That's how she was raised. Raised to be independent. Cunning. Swift. Ruthless. She couldn't believe in things like fairy-tales, she didn't have that privilege. No prince sweeping the princess off her feet, no hero saving the damsel in distress. She couldn't believe in happy endings.
She didn't deserve one.
Yawn
She had to get some sleep, but she was too tired to get up. Her body was too numb, the wall behind her had never been this comfortable.
No one would care where she slept, she concluded, as her eyes slowly closed.
No one cared about her anyway.
A lie she had been forced to believe
She didn't care.
A lie she forced herself to believe.
A dream about a certain redheaded speedster was what she got for lying to herself.
Dreaming about being saved, swept off her feet.
Loved.
