I don't own
'em! You knew that already, though,
right? Good, 'cause if ya didn't, I'd
think about introducing you to my nice friends with the pretty long white
coats. They're nice…
No real
spoilers, but seeing 5.08 (Shadow) is strongly recommended.
I wrote this
right after watching that ep. This song
came on and just seemed to fit. I'm not
sure if I like the story or not. It has
no plot, and no one 'cept me ever got what I intended. That's ok, though, because it's really
cloudy as to even who the main character is. SO, when you read this, please write a review or email
me and let me know what you think it's about! I really want to know what y'all think. J
'K, anyway, the
song is Blessid Union's "Standing on the Edge of the Earth."
Goodbye by Lil
Dreamer
"I knew
that this moment would come, in time,
That I'd have
to let go and watch you fly.
I know you're
coming back,
So why am I
dying inside?
Are you
searching for words that you can't find?
Trying to hide
your emotions? Please don't lie
I guess there's
no easy way to say goodbye."
The events of
the last few days only proved what he already knew.
She wanted
someone else, not him. And soon she
wouldn't want him around.
And there wasn't
a thing he would do about it. Not a
thing he could.
It wasn't like
he hadn't tried. God, he had given up
everything to be with her, surrendered it all to her, for her. And she didn't want him.
He tried to
compete, to be what he knew she wanted. Nothing had worked. She stopped
him every time. If not physically, then
psychically. She was always in his
thoughts, in his mind. He couldn't get
her out. That was what had stopped him
yesterday. He knew she would be... Sad? No, probably not. Disappointed? More likely. Hers was a rigid morality, and she expected her friends to
comply.
Friends. The word left a bad taste in his mouth
though he had not spoken it aloud. That
was where they were headed, though, wasn't it? How could she expect him to be her "friend" now? He couldn't. Not even if that was what she wanted.
As he looked at
the object in his hand, an odd smile lit his face. A stake. Her
weapon of choice. He wasn't even sure
what made him take it tonight. Or why
he had come to this spot. This
graveyard. They fought here, together,
once, a hundred times. Who knew how
many times. Did it matter? Did she care?
He couldn't
believe she did.
So why would
she care if he took this stake right now-
and did what
she did every damn night-
like this-
He couldn't get
over the pain at first. But soon it
disappeared and he was warm all over. He opened his eyes.
There she
was. His beautiful angel had come to
say goodbye. He tried to smile for her,
but something he saw disturbed his newly found peace.
Now she
wouldn't have to pretend anymore. Now
she could go to the one she loved. Now
he was no more. So why were there tears
in her eyes?
"I know
this may be the very last time that we see each other [?]
Whatever
happens know that I-
I'll be
standing at the edge of the earth,
Hoping that one
day you'll come back again.
I'll be
standing at the edge of the earth,
Hoping that
some day you'll come back to me.
I'll be praying
for whatever it's worth,
Believing that
one day you'll come back again.
I'll be
standing at the edge of the earth,
Hoping for
someday."
