An Empty Heart and an Un-beating Heart
Lost:
Buffy walked away from her home on Rovello drive with tears streaking her face. The house that she had lived in for almost seven years straight. The house where she had lost her mother, and learned to be the mother of her younger sister, the ball of mystical energy that had expelled her from her home. Dawn and the rest of them had. The ones she fought so hard to protect, had turned against her.
By the shadows of the night I go
I moved away from the crowded room
That sea of shallow faces masked in warm regret
They don't know how to feel, they don't know what is lost
She didn't know where she was going. Her feet moved mindlessly beneath her, her mission had been taken. "The mission is what matters" She had nothing to live for. Slaying was supposed to be her whole life, but she had to admit though, it hadn't been. Unlike the slayers before her, she had friends and a family. Friends that were a family. Friends that had taken her mission. So now she had nothing left, no friends, and no purpose.
Lost in the darkness of a land
Where all the hope that's offered is
Memories of being taken by the hand
And we are led into the sun
She didn't know what to go on for. She felt dead. She wished she was. She wished she could go back to her happy place in the sky and feel full again. But instead she felt empty, and utterly alone. A slayer is always alone. Her ancestor had been right.
But I don't have a hold on what is real
Though we can only try
What is there to give or to believe
I want it all to go away I want to be alone
Sympathy's wasted on my hollow shell
I feel there's nothing left to fight for
No reason for a cause
And I can't hear your voice and I can't feel you near
She dropped to her knees in the middle of the street and dropped her face in her hands. She let her body succumb to the sobs which shook her to her core.
I wanted a change knowing all I could do was try
I was looking for someone...
TBC. R&R plz.
