✩ my birthday story--not really about my birthday, just to celebrate it lol ✩ i have my first short story! its angst, but more hopeful towards the end. i hope you like it! tw: it contains mentions of d3@th, but not explicitly. read on --> ------------------------------- The trail you had once walked, the path you had once dreamt of. It’s gone, in the blink of an eye. I walk through the bustling halls of the school, tears welling up in my eyes. I hastily wipe them before anyone sees, sniffling as your loss is still fresh in my mind. Oh, how the tables have turned. Once, you had promised to never leave my side. I was grateful to you all along, as you were the light to my darkness. What happens to the darkness once the light is put out? It expands. Wider and wider, until you can’t take it anymore. Your smile was what made my day, and your comforting words made me feel better. No matter what was going on, I could always count on you. No words could describe the anguish and grief I had felt when your heart monitor went flat. Now, I’m stuck in the endless boundaries of sadness, waiting for a miracle–any miracle–to take place. I want to curl up in a ball, hiding from society. To everyone who tells me it’s going to be okay, it’s not. Nothing's ever going to be the same. Why did this have to happen? To you, an amazing soul? I make it to the library and collapse on the chair. I bury my face in my hands and drown in misery. That’s when I felt it. The spark. The spark that urged me to keep going, even if everything felt down. The spark that influenced my decision to do what you couldn’t do, because of a cruel twist of fate. I will live the best life I can for you, because you couldn’t. I won’t let myself drown again, because wings like mine are meant to fly. -------------------------------
