There I go again; I've been there once before. Uncharted territory, yet so enchanting...a spell I'm falling under. Well, it seems I want to fall, fall unto soft cushions, but what if there aren't any cushions, just the hard floor of reality? Why should reality be a hard floor? What if it's the soft cushions? Uncertainity, hesitancy, I know them.
This is all too quick, and you don't have much time. It is all unfounded; just wishful thinking. You don' really know what she feels, and you're too scared to ask. Why? Because you're scared of rejection, you're scared that you both may feel taking a step closer would mean creating a bond that would hurt terribly when it is inevitably broken. You're scared of the possibility that she hasn't thought of such things at all, and when you tell her, she'll just laugh it all away, or worse, grow averse to your wishful thinking. Forget it, you're a dreamer, chasing an illusion; and didn't she say that she'd stopped dreaming, chasing illusions, stopped trying to embrace a fallacy that could never return her warmth?
But I... I am a dreamer. What is life without illusion? If she laughs it off or chides you,well, if you never try, you'll never know. If she's scared too, worried about the future, then we'll have to savour the present, and deal with the future as it comes along. I would like to know what she feels. I hope she feels what i hope she does.
I'd told her I'd nurse a broken wing. I'd told her I'd try to help her fly again. I'd told her I'd try to help her dream again. I'll try, and pray she dreams again, even if it's not for me.

Coldplay - Fix you
So beautiful...When you try your best but you don't succeed.
When you get what you want but not what you need.
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep.
Stuck in reverse.
When the tears come streaming down your face.
When you lose something you can't replace.
When you love someone but it goes to waste.
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.
High up above or down below
when you too in love to let it go.
If you never try you'll never know
just what your worth.
Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones.
And I will try to fix you.
Tears streaming down your face
when you lose something you cannot replace.
Tears streaming down your face
and I...
Tears streaming down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes.
Tears stream down your face
and I....
Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones.
And I will try to fix you.

Comfort
A steady wind blew her hair back, exposing her face to the muted rays of the sun. Dark brooding clouds hung to the left of her, casting their shadow over everything they passed.To her right lay lands untouched by the darkness, still bathed in the gentle rays of the late afternoon sun. The sharp contrast between the evanescent light and the advancing shadow possesed a stark beauty - a reality which reflected the past week.
A single tear rolled down her cold cheek, down to the corner of her mouth, where it spread lightly on her lips, lips which just four days before beheld the kiss she would never forget, nor taste again. A single rain drop fell, followed by others seconds later, on the freshly refilled earth over which she knelt.
The rain grew heavier, bringing with it a cold comfort of constancy. Tear lines were washed away,
and carried down to the grave by the rain. Her sadness was swept down to the earth in which his broken body lay.
The cold yet comforting caress of the soaking rain made her realise it was time to move on. He was now free, and whole, just as her memories were of him.
As she got up to leave, she cast a long gaze to skywards, knowing he would be there looking down from above, waiting, for them to be together again.
