End
"Everything has a reason
Everything has a start
Anything that ever burned
Had a spark
Anything I ever wanted
Anyone I ever needed
Always seemed to leave me standing in the dark."
850 3pm, Monday
She lay with her hands by her sides and chin resting on the trunk of the tree. Crimson streaks painted half of her face, complimenting the empty look in her eyes.
He stared at her. Pain, sadness, and rage were the only emotions coursing through his veins and filling up his mind and soul.
Her mouth was slightly open and a thin stream of blood trailed down to her neck.
She didn't deserve to die like this.
Not like this.
He couldn't take it anymore and looked at her for one last time. He tried to memorize the color of her hair, the shape of her lips, the details on her face, and the spark that used to be in her eyes. The spark that rekindled his fire. The spark that made him love again.
The spark that now was burned out.
He remembered what she had said the night before, about rebirth and new lives.
"If I were to die one day…then someday I would be born again."
Somewhere inside him, there lay a small shred of hope. Hope that he will get to see her again and they would live a different life. A life that did not involve war and bloodshed. A life that was simple, but never dull at the same time. A life that was just them together to face.
His hand reached down to gently close her eyes.
"We will meet again...someday."
"And I'm watching the hours
Looking for reasons
Find that I'm missing every beat of your heart
'Til you're back in my arms,
I'll be waiting, waiting, waiting up, counting the stars."
A/N-Thank you so much for reading. The song is called Counting Stars by Augustana. Sayonara. ^_^
