A/N: Hey guys! Back just in time with a short little drabble! Hope you enjoy!
Maybe later they'd pretend it's okay.
That the song they were dancing to was meant to end someday. That this was chasing them to an edge of a cliff, with fires so close that they almost singed hands held together that were already slipping away.
Maybe later they'd pretend it's okay.
That they knew.
They knew that the threadbare strings glued with desperate kisses would give and fall. That they were never meant to stay or last. They knew the hole they had leapt into would be hard to climb out of.
Maybe later they'd pretend it's okay.
That the fake fantasy that ended at dew on the grass on a foggy morning was worth the cracks in their hearts. That the dirt under their nails from climbing out of the hole was a necessary part of them.
Maybe later it is okay.
That it came to end. The way it was always going to.
And the fire and the cliffs and the dirt and the dew were a journey that they had chosen, even if they didn't need to.
Maybe later it is okay.
Because not everything in life is meant to last, and not every decision is made with the mind and free falling down love is okay.
Later it is okay.
Because they get up, brush themselves off, and move on, with the memories and lessons of something old but their sights set on something new.
And maybe one day her grey eyes meet green and it doesn't matter what came before because he's her everything.
And maybe his blue eyes meet brown and it's the ground he always needed so his thoughts never fly to the past.
Later it is better than okay. Later it is good.
A/N: So what did you think? I wanted to cover a relationship that doesn't work out, or a fling, or those moments when you know it's not it, or that person isn't the one, but you still go ahead and give it a try.
This fic is for the people who chase something, fall into something, even if it's meant to end because that is okay. Often times it's regretted or mocked at, but you're not alone and flings and short relationships are okay. Sometimes the journey can teach you something. But sometimes, it's just okay to live and love and know it's going to be okay when it ends.
Because when the right person does come along, all the things from the past won't matter anymore anyway.
So yeah, perhaps a niche topic, but I suspect that more people go through this than will admit, so I wanted to cover it. That said, I hope you liked it!
Please Review! I'd love to hear your thoughts!
And as always, thanks for reading!
See ya! :)
