Burdens
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts
An: I wrote this while I watched by boyfriend play Kingdom Hearts: Chain on Memories – Reverse/Rebirth (where you play as Riku) and I got the urge to write while he tried to kill the final boss. And this is what I've ended up with.
Just a little one-shot with no real purpose. So don't flame me and be total jerks, okay? Any ways, here we go R&R.
SLIGHT WARNING: itsy-bitsy little bit of shonen-ai if you squint at the end.
Sitting alone, longing for another. I don't want to be by myself anymore, but I always am. I hate it! Surrounded by the dark that disgusts me so much, yet long ago I embraced. My heart torn in two pieces, what am I supposed to do? Continue sitting here, weighted down by misery or should I stand? Try to shake off the dark from my shoulders.
Easier said than done. Even now as I stagger to my feet the burden is becoming too much. How does he do it? How does he walk so freely with all that is set on his toned shoulders. Ones so much like my own. Did I miss something? How is he able to walk and run, without a care in the world.
Is it because he carries the light while I, the dark? Or is it that his burden is as heavy as my own, but he chooses to not let others know the truth. Is that it? If I know him as well as I once did, than that's the simple truth, he must stand tall, like a pillar of strength.
The light must be above all in order to make the shadows darkness needs to survive. Maybe I have always been below my light, yet we always thought it to be the other way. He'd always looked up to me, while I, him. He wanted my strength, I wanted his heart. To be able to survive everything thrown his way, to forgive and forget. To be the light, yes, that's what I'd always wanted from him. Years ago, if given the chance to trade places I know we would have accepted without a moments thought. But now…no, I would never agree! I love my light far to much to give him to the dark that has surrounded me. Ironic isn't it, darkness loving the light. Yet it makes perfect sense, for with out him I could never be.
He was my best friend, my brother, rival and companion. But was that all he was to me? Maybe yes, maybe no. But that is a topic we shall not get into for it seems to be getting darker, heavier. I can't breath, cant see. Drowning, like one could in the waters that surround our island home.
Maybe that's the key? If I let my self drown, this dark current will take me back home. To soft sand, sea blown air but most of all, my light…
Sora…
Well that's it. Btw, if anyone's wondering I was listening to "Love Song" by KoRn, so that may have influenced my writing a bit, but I tried to not let it.
Love song for the dear departed
Head stone for the broken hearted
Arms to kill
Or flowers to steal
Head trip for the mortal earthbound
One sip of the blood that I found
Lying here
Im dying here
Well that's all for now, plz R&R!
