A/N: Hey Guys! Happy New Year! It's the beginning of 2018 so I thought we'd start off the year with something a little hopeful :) so without further ado,
Here ya go:
They say beauty is fleeting.
A quick brush of hands while walking, small hidden smiles during breakfast, awestruck stares when no one else is looking.
Perhaps they're right. The harmony of life is made beautiful for it's impermanence. Would anything be so beautiful if it was everlasting?
Routine settles in, laundry on Sunday afternoons, groceries on Mondays, dishes switch every other night. It's perpetual, no longer special because it always exists.
But maybe, just maybe, impermanence allows for everlasting to become beauty. Because nothing lasts, nothing is supposed to last.
There are fights and wounded hearts. Tears in the night and pain for every dark minute.
So maybe, when something lasts, even when it's not supposed to…
Hugs and comfort filling the hurt, tears once more but this time filled with hope. No more dark nights, just a warm reminder that it's okay.
It creates a different kind of beauty
Fragile bones and wrinkled smiles. Shaking hands running through white hair with a simple kiss to the forehead.
Maybe beauty is everlasting.
A/N: So there ya have it, something a little more beautiful, a little more hopeful, because that's what we all really need going into a new year.
This fic was inspired by a really beautiful game that I watched Jack (jacksepticeye) play called Far From Noise. It brought up this idea of the concept of beauty and the impermanence and I wanted to bring something different to the discussion, and this fic was my spin on it.
So what did you think? Did you like it?
