“Whenever I’m…alone with…you…”
Today is World Slash Appreciation Day. I am feeling oddly nostalgic and very much lonely. I just read an amazing Severus/Tom Riddle fic and I am bawling. Why do all the wonderful slash fics end with death?
Inconceivable, one of the first slash fics I ever read, ended with the deaths of both Davey and Jade of AFI. Davey died of a broken heart. I was so numb that I couldn’t bring myself to cry. I just reread the ending again - I have become far more open with my emotions; I am sobbing.
That is how I wish to die. Not taken by illness and disease, but with my heart shattered, memories of my lover on my mind. I just want to close my eyes and cease to exist, a smile that tells of better times frozen on my face.
Is it wrong of me to wish for a poetic death when others die so plainly? It will never happen, anyways. There is nothing poetic about death. And I will never be that happy.
I need to get out of this city.
