❛ you can’t ask me that, alex, it’s not fair. ❜
there is despair in her voice, little stones of doubt that weigh her down and
pull her under, small threads of truth she has woven as a trap, a self-made
prison of love and unfairness, salted tears and the sort of love that makes the
sun shine in the morning. she is on the edge of breaking, standing on chasm,
overlooking the sea of reason, preparing herself to drown. rosie dunne did not
allow herself to have shiny things, the sun was banned and all things good and
kind were to be given to her daughter. ( he was everything — and so she
allowed herself nothing. )
❛ she has a life here, alex. ❜
❛ she has friends, a home, familiarity. ❜
❛ i can’t take it away from her, ❜
❛ my happiness does not rival hers. ❜
a tear escapes her eye, and makes a lonely descent down her cheek,
absent-mindendly wiped away – she has cried so much in the past years
that the act of such is no longer revolutionary.
❛ she has a best friend. ❜
❛ —- she has love. ❜
❛ and i cannot for the life of me, ❜
❛ take away something so beautiful, ❜
❛ as a best friend. ❜
And a SHALLOW chuckle escaped past his lips as he shook his head
to dismiss the idea that he had proposed a few seconds ago ; as the mere
thought was preposterous.
Katie had a life here ; in Dublin ( where she belongs ) .
She has a BEST FRIEND and the one thing he
could never have or ever will love. true love.
The sea of melancholy was slowly drowning him.
Under the burning crimson sky, and screeching black stars,
the contempt that boils within , created only a greater sorrow.
This contempt for himself, and the reproach he give himself,
he couldn’t bear. This abuse he couldn’t withstand,
One thing that the torment and pain did was
feed his growing hidden sorrow.
Emotions flooding; shivers down his spine,
freezing into the depth of his bones,
Hurting. He hides... Like the moon behind the sun;
aches and sorrow behind his smile.
His hand reached out to wipe the descending tear off her
cheek, as his lips twitched up further,
a facade that would hide away hollowness of his heart.
❛ Don’t go cryin’ on me now, Rosie Dunne ❜
❛ SMILE... ❜
❛ C’mon ❜
❛ Where’s that smile? ❜
❛ Is i‘ gonna kill ya teh smile? ❜
