(A/N) This is just a piece of literature I thought of mid-slumber. It was a good idea so I kept it in my head and just now am writing it down. This is a one-shot, about Dan Howell's life so far, from age nineteen to twenty-three (current) with a little bit of phan, so if you like very very light phan it's here.
Let's embark on the journey together, shall we?
Age Nineteen
I'm just a broken boy. Mother, can you hear my silent screams? Aching for acceptance. Mother, Father, can you hear me? My head is full of demons, oh you wouldn't know. Father can you heal me? My heart broken in places you cannot sew with just a simple thread. Brother, can you love me? Heal me with words of kindness, the kindness I never saw. Mother, Father, Brother, can you save me? No. You can't.
Age Twenty
I'm learning to heal, bandages lining the outside of my shattered heart. My hero was there, right before my eyes, clad in colourful outfits and blue eyes in the deepest shade. He stood there looking straight at me, ebony hair so dark it could make the darkest demons drown in envy. My heart beat slowly, ever so slightly. But my world already started to look up, because I had found the one.
Age Twenty-One
If you love somebody, better tell them while they're here, 'cause they may just run away from you. You'll never know it quite when, well then again it just depends on you. How long of time is left for you? I've had the highest mountains, I've had the deepest rivers. You can have it all but life just keeps moving. I take it in but don't look down.
Age Twenty-Two
Shatter me. I dare you. Because you can't anymore. My heart held together with the strongest of love. The love that brewed from Phil. You can try to break me, but you can't. Try it, and you will be burned by kindness, the kindness that glowed within Phil. The strongest kindness, because I live with the one. I love him so much, I feel like I'm on top of the world. And he returns it with kisses that never grow old.
Age Twenty-Three
My world is vibrant and full of colours. How did he come from someone I merely imaged as my best friend, to become my best friend, and then my soulmate, the one I have loved since the beginning? He loves me, me for the person I am today and for the person I'll be tomorrow. And I trust him to look at me tomorrow the same way as today. And we'll take on the world together. I know that he will love me forever.
