Well...my latest in writing. Actually this is really old, but i went through some feelings last nigh (over kerri of course) and so i came up with a twist to what i already had. Warning though this needs some mad revision.
And then I woke up...
A bone-chilling night is upon us. The yearly snowstorm blows through with enough of a chill to freeze your blood in its tracks. the fireplace burns and gives off its steady heat. A soft jazz tune plays in the background just loud enough to hear. Stiing by the fireplace in the warmth, with a cozy blanket to cover me. Lazily, the cat takes her usual resting place on the mantle, between the clutter of ornaments. Sharing the warmth and the blanket with me is an amazing girl. Red hair, green eyes, and skin so smooth to the touch. I feel her arms around my neck, and equally i wrap my arms around her waist. She rests her head on my chest, and in return i lay my head on top of hers. Both of us enjoying the warmth, the closeness, the feeling of being with each other. I look down at the top of her beautiful hair, and i run my hand through it and down her back. Eventually, my hand found hers, and she gave it a squeeze.
And then i woke up...
There i was, walking down the sidewalk. The snow was gently falling to the ground. I wrapped my trenchcoat tightly around me as i quickend my pace. As i walked on, kids were out playing, having snowfights and making snow angels. In the meantime, couples were out window shopping, laughing and holding each other, as it was like this whenever the cold weather drove people closer and closer together. As i walked by i came upon a beautiful two story house. There was a faint glow from the window, and i couldn't help but to look. As i looked inside, the glow seemed to flicker, and then two shadows danced along the wall. The way the two shadows moved, with so much grace, but with a playfulness feeling at the same time. I couldn't take my eyes away, and before i could react, someone had walked into the kitchen. He was draped in a blanket which covered his whole body. Close behind him was a beautiful red-haired girl, clinging to his arm and looking up at him. She gave him the sad puppy eye, and at first it had no effect on the man. Eventually his look softened, and he took the blanket and wrapped it around her, pulling her close and kissing her head. My watch suddenly beeped, and i remembered i had somewhere to be. So i turned from the window after watching that man pour two mugs of hot coffee, and i began to walk again.
And then i woke up...
I opened my eyes, freezing cold winds gripped my body as i tried to sit up. I couldn't get the memories out of my head, and it had finally driven me insane. The tears from the night before had frozen on my face, permanent reminders of my irrational thinking. I thought i was happy with her. I had been with her for so long. Yet all that while i kept you in the back of my mind, and i couldn't ever take you out of the picture. You know, they say the definition of insanity is thinking the same thing every day, and expecting something different to happen. For years i must have been insane. As much as i could push you to the back of my head and in a little box back there, i never put you out. I always thought that one day you would come back to me, and that things would be how they should have been all those years ago. And now...now i'm left with not a damn thing, not even tears left to cry for you. Yet of all the things i've lost, i've gained something that will stay with me forever...at least that's what i was thinking to myself as i looked up at the snow, still falling even as i think to myself. Of course, just when i start thinking of how i feel, i watched two teens walking by from where i sat, and a cold gust of wind blew, and i watched this young man take the girl in his ams. I wrapped my arms around myself as well, wishing i had you there instead. The coldness, and the fact that i was watching this couple in front of my eyes only intensified how i felt now, after loosing everything. The more i thought about it, the colder the wind blew. I only want tears to cry...by now i could feel my limbs going numb, but even in the cold i couldn't help but think of you. Inside i felt so lonley, and so empty. Everyone else around me had someone to be with, someone to hold, someone to share all their feelings with. And so did i, until i realized just how insane i was. And as i watched on, i remembered seeing that little red-haired girl from somewhere before, but my eyes...i couldn't see straight. I remembered fading as you and that strange man turned to look at me. "Look at him, his face is blue." i could hear you say it as i felt like i was falling, but i couldn't tell because i was so numb. "We can't leave him in the snow like that," the man said as you two started heading towards me. Who is that...i couldn't think stright and my eyes wouldn't stay open. "Oh my Gid!" I heard you scream as you leaned over my face, and before the world went black...before the emptyness insde had eaten its way through all my limbs. Before my heart gave out from not having anyone to truly be with. Before i could comprehend how much pain i felt inside....i realized....that the stunning red-haired girl looking down on me with so much worry in her face...it was you.
And then I woke up...
