[Nov 29][Original]Endless Song
Title: Endless Song
Day/Theme: November 29 - The heart breaks and breaks and lives by breaking
Series: Original, my NaNoWriMo story-line
Character/Pairing: Original, one-sided
Rating: K to K+
She hears a couple scream, their voices shrill and their tones fierce. She can hear their hearts breaking and souls crying, for blood or mercy or both. The couple yell, I wish you were dead!, and storm away from each other. She does not know if they'll be over this by tomorrow or if their hearts will continue to break and break until there is nothing left and they either pick up the pieces or don't.
She wonders why people fall in love, if it hurts so much. Why do they continue to love and be hurt by it over and over again? Some people don't learn the first time, she decides. She later amends, Most people don't learn the first time.
And then she sees her smile, bright and cheerful and pure. She sees her eyes light up in joy, and hears her laughter ring through the air, high and sweet. She hears her own heart breaking every time that smile, those eyes, that laugh are not because of her. But her heart heals instantly, because it is her smile and her eyes and her laughter each time, and it breaks when she realises it is not for her, but heals again. An endless cycle of breaking and healing and breaking and healing and she discovered she is alright with it, because it is her.
This is why people fall in love, her hearts says, beating a song with no end as it breaks and heals and breaks and heals. This is what people live for.
