breathing. by ~Amertie:iconAmertie:

Categories Literature > Prose > Non-Fiction > General Non-Fiction


tonight you are alone, silence keeping your heart company. you try to breathe but there's no air, there's no air, there's no

one to love you.

you close your eyes and pretend life is a fairytale and the prince just saved the princess and the dragon's been slayed and everything's okay now, everything's okay. and everyone is smiling and happy music is playing in the background and there's only going to be sunny days. everyone is saying, here's your happy ever after, it's all yours now. everyone is happy -

well, except for you, because right now you're pretending you don't exist.

.

you compare hearts to fingerprints; no two are alike.

except yours was imprinted on a piece of paper. yours was on a piece of paper and it was raining yesterday and you left it outside and now it's all ruined.

but it doesn't matter anyway, because it's not like anyone wanted it in the first place.

.

tonight you are alone and panicking and your heart's racing and you're shaking.

he told you that some days, the sun will shine through the rain.
but today isn't one of those days, and thunder's always scared you more than lightning.

there is air, you think. there is air and there is sunshine and there is hope, and you could breathe if you tried,

but right now the only thing on your mind is giving up.

So sad!

Follow me inside, outside, through the stratosphere.
The moon is shining for you.
It knows that I adore you.
Suddenly all the sadness will just slip away.
And you will see what I mean,
If you just follow me in my dreams.

It doesn't suck. ;^;
"everyone is happy -

well, except for you, because right now you're pretending you don't exist." is my favourite part. You're always so good at making striking contrasts, or something...I dont know, I'm not so good at language, heh. xD

Well, damn.
