This is challenge for Children of the Shadows.
The song is "Skinny Love" by Birdy.
I did my best to make it emotional, but I probably failed.
Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
Doveheart sighed, remembering her times with Sparrowtail. Those amazing times, the times she just couldn't let go of.
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood in crushed veneer
"Doveheart, you have to stay here with me, you love me, right?" Sparrowtail begged, his voice cracking in despair.
I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
"I do, you know I do. But I can't stay with you, I belong to ShadowClan, and you to RiverClan," she argued, hating that she had to do this.
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in the moment this order's tall
"No! We can stay together, please? Don't you love me?" he whispered, tears brimming his eyes.
I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
"I do! But we both know this is going to break. Fail. Shatter. Nothing lasts forever," she murmured, pressing herself against him.
In the morning I'll be with you
But it will be a different kind
She took herself out of her memories. Her haunting memories. What if she had stayed with Sparrowtail? What if she made the wrong choice? A tear made it's way down her cheek. A slow, cold, long, tear.
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines
But it didn't matter any longer, because now it was over. She was alone. With no one who loved her after what she did. She should have stayed with Sparrowtail. The one cat in the forest, who might have ever truly loved her. And the one cat in the forest, that she may have truly loved back.
