Running Away

4199 Words
Jack walked downstairs, on where he was there, why he was there and about what happened the day before, his memory was blurry; the only think he remembered was talking with his friend on the phone, and that was it; everything else was long lost, the same as Natasha’s head. “You fainted last night, we are in Kin’s house, how are you feeling?” Leonard pushed Kin slightly away and walked to Jack, to check on him. “What happened?” Jack asked, clutching his head and trying to remember what exactly made him faint. “Somebody broke in.” Leonard and suddenly yesterday’s night played in his mind like a clip, the feeling of scariness, the powerless feeling and the unknown of his survival. It scared him to think that, the attack may have resulted in his death, he can never be home alone again, at least not for the time being, he doesn’t want that to happen again. “Are you okay? You look pale.” Leonard said when he saw the color running away from Jack’s appearance. “Yeah, I want to go home, take me home please.” Jack asked in a desperate voice, holding tightly onto Leonard’s shirt. Leonard nodded and walked out of the house with Jack, after telling Kin that he would be waiting for the kind Kin to come back. A few days later, Kin was sitting in his office, dazedly looking out of the window and eating crackers, to busy his mouth, while he was thinking about the life he had right now with his parents; it wasn’t bad, it just felt artificial and not real, and he wasn’t alone in having that thought, but nobody voiced that out, so they were stuck in their parents house. With each passing day in that household, a part of his soul got sucked away, their parents behavior sucked the life out of him completely, with no way of getting that back, which gave him a thought he saw in many place. While he was eating his crackers, Kin decided to pull out his notebook, to write down thoughts, poems and any kind of idea he had in his mind. Some of them were: I was fighting to survive I am still fighting I was deep in the darkness I didn't see the light I was drowning I tried to reach the top I waited for hand to take me out I waited and waited But nobody came I buried my sadness deep inside my sea of tears I hid it behind a smile I put on a mask Nobody noticed I was crazy for them I injured myself as a finale resolution to not give up To not finally give up Everybody had problems I am not the first I have to be fine I will just be a burden I wanted to be saved But I was afraid to call out for help I was dying inside with a smile Hoping for someone to notice For someone to help But nobody came It was hard I almost give up I was almost eaten by the darkness my heart created But I finally saw a hand I saw a light so I grabbed it I was out I struggled at first But I become better I promised myself to be better I told myself I am fine I will be fine I didn't give up I was fine I am fine I will fight Our love story is still fresh in my mind You still make me fall for you every second Loving you was the best thing I did At first I thought our love will not last But you proved me wrong I am glad you did So keep holding me Don't let go Never let go Our love aged like wine A beautiful red wine Each day I fall harder And find new things to love about you You make me feel alive You make me love myself So let's grow old together If it's you I am ready to fall Because I know you will bring me up So keep holding me in your arms Don't let go Never let go Our love aged like wine A beautiful red wine Your love taste like eternity You make me feel this way I didn't know it was possible for me But you made it happen So keep holding me Don't let me go Waiting for you For you to be back I waited till my eyes dried out of tears But you never came back And when you finally did You treated me like a shadow A shadow you don't need And you know what You didn't deserve the wait But I am glad I waited Because the sleepless nights made me see it The beautiful moon The moon I never noticed before In the night it shines It accompanied me Stayed with me When you weren't there Now I prefer to wait for the night to fall Because I know the waiting is worth it We try to love We try not to hate We try to be happy We try not to be sad We live We don't want to die But I wish you were here with me To do all of this with me I love you You know that, right? Of course you do How could you not I always tell you In my dreams, my fantasies Can you meet me in the dreamland? I want to see you I want to catch you I want to hold your hand I am falling harder I love you You are too perfect for me Way too perfect to be real Are you real? You aren't real I am telling myself that But I still want you You are real for me Even if you fade away when I open my eyes I miss you You were my all My love My happiness My sadness I needed you But you left me broken Alone searching for the light But now I don't need you anymore I have myself with me I lost you I won me I won my confidence back It was a challenge I decided to take In order to love me again Now that you are gone I finally realized You were the barrier The barrier stopping me Stopping me from being A better me You held me back You gave me an illusion You told me Without me you are nothing Without me you will live in the darkness You kept me from reality But now I am free Ready to fight the darkness To find the light To find me I am me So I will love me For me Nobody will love me more than me I am my number one I am my world I am my light I don't need you anymore Because I have me I lost you I won me You don’t have to be what they want you to Be what you dream of Be what you want Love your life and live it the way you desire They will judge no matter what you do They will always be unsatisfied Don’t put yourself in the box they made for you To control you Break free and do whatever Be it becoming a hero or living a simple life You be the judge and the jury It may look impossible It may seem as if the world is against you And that might be the case But once you stand up for yourself They will back away and if they don’t Then push them away If they will not support to become what you want then they don’t deserve your attention Be whatever you desire Whatever you want Live your life to the fullest So that when the day to leave comes You will smile and think about all the happy memories you experienced Not the things you wished you did Because at the end of the day The ones who stay will he the ones to hold your hand when you need them You made me feel special You made me feel worth it You made me love me Love myself By your words By your voice By existing By being there There to listen To help To help me be a better me You made me feel this way I was fine I said I was fine You saved me So I want to save you I want to help you I want you to let me Listen to you To your worries To your reason of sadness I want to be there for you Like you were I know I am so far away But I still want to Be there for you You made me love me Love myself So I love you I love yourself So love yourself Because you are special You are worth it You are amazing You are beautiful You are my hero I need you to be there There in my life You make me smile I want to make you smile I am there for you I am here with you You left me alone You left me in the darkness But I fought my way out of it I found the light I found happiness Then why are you coming now? Why are you here? Where were you when I needed it you? Don't come back when it's already too late I don't need you Nor your fake love I don't need you to tell me you finally realized your mistake Because you truly didn't Don't lie Don't sugar coat your words I don't need you anymore You say I moved too fast But you didn't see my misery Don't judge me You weren't there when I put my broken pieces together You don't belong to my world You don't belong to my heart Why are you here? Why do you still try to trick me? I am not that i***t anymore I know the difference between fake love And the real love I am searching for it You won't stop from finding it From finding my true love My one and only Have you ever thought of loving me? Have you ever thought of hugging me? Have you ever thought of me? Because I sure did I know that it's impossible The distances make it hard to see See that there is a future between us But I still dream of a life with you I still fantasize of waking up next to you I know that it's creepy I do it anyway Have you ever thought of loving me? Have you get thought of hugging me? Have you get thought of me? Because I will be sure to Every time I wake up I realize that it's impossible You are high up in the sky But I am down here living my average life Thinking of you is like taking a drug Addicting until I wake up for it And I feel the pain of you being away Have you ever thought of loving me? Have you ever thought of hugging me? Have you ever thought of me? Because I will continue to I need you in my life If you leave I will not blossom Your presence keeps me alive Your warmth makes me smile Your existence is my reason You are my reason You are the colors to my life You love me for me My soul is tied to your heart My blackness is whitened by you Hold me close Don't disappear Don't fly away You are my reason Do you feel my craziness for you? Make me sane And I will fade away Without you around My happiness is gone You are my reason The key to happiness is easy to find But to know what door to open is harder than trying to find a needle in a haystack Open the wrong one and you will break the key Torturing yourself till you find another Be careful of what you choose Your destiny is in your hand Don't hand it away If it makes them sad, disappointed or angry Let them be Because you will be the one suffering If you give me them the key to your happiness And let them decide Your life is in your hand Trust yourself and only take advice Don't allow others to take over Because once the death knocks on your door You are the only one who is going to open it And let it take you It's never too late to try To live and make your dreams whatever you want them to be Let your reality be yours You're the one who has the key to your happiness So cherish it and keep it safe Don't hand it away Once it's lost It will be hard to find it again Your happiness is yours The same as your life The missing piece to everything is to be happy To be free A bird flying through storms with hope Hope that it will be sunny the next day Because it will If it's not tomorrow then it will be the day after it Just remember that the sun will shine again The same way your smile will If you remember that Your happiness is yours I used to love you You did too But then they came along We forget about each other And fell in love with them We stopped caring about each other And only cared about them We drifted apart But we both didn't mind Thinking about it We fell really hard Fell in love with someone other than each other I don't regret it And I am sure you don't either Because we both know how brighter they made our world We have each other forever But for now let's focus on something other than each other They deserved it And I can sacrifice for them, the same way you did The same way you choose them over me Which I did as well Ah how hard it is to love It's beautiful but painful We had each other But we wanted more Love is mysterious thing It makes us be and don't things we never imagined I am lucky to have you there To understand me When I don't understand myself It's hard letting you go But it's harder seeing myself and you love them more Should we take the step or retract and stay faithful to each other? I used to be me Until you turned me to your dream girl And made me forget who I was But it was my fault For letting you step over me I lived in your shadow and fed off your darkness, your toxicity It was enough until it wasn't Because I saw the light How bright and delicious it is The waves in my heart are straying away from your name They are going back to their original place Back to my name And it's finally calm right now The waves found their way home and welcomed me with soft splashes I am finally home And ready to be who I am If you want me to be honest I stopped loving you a long time ago The moment you stopped caring about me About us Don't act like it's a surprise You saw this coming The moment you turned your back The moment your heart stopped beating in sync with mine I am glad I have the power to do this A few years ago breaking up with you Would have been the same as jumping in the river But now I am not afraid of drowning in my tears Because I know I will get out one day On my own I don't need you to pity me I don't need you to stay with me You can go and shut the door behind you Because I won't open my heart to you again I'm glad to be alone in the morning sun Without you beside me It's comforting and peaceful So goodbye to the old days of misery and welcome to the freedom Verse 1: I remember you saying:"I'll never let you down, I'll be your flashlight in the dark nights, and when you are tired I'll be your medicine (pillow), when you're fighting I'll be your best soldier (armer)". Where are you now I don't even see your shadow, but anyway I have to say thank you cuz I've learned how to be on my own stronger on my own ‎والان اكمل طريقك، واستمر في تجاهل مشاعري لأنني: REFRAIN: I’ll be fine with or without you, you are the one who left me when I really needed you, and now take the same road that leads you to me with you So goodbye darling, your time is over Verse 2 I remember myself being a bird Having her wings and flying for the first time and you were the blue sky, but when I tried reaching you You pushed me away and left me bleeding on the old road And then I started crying my life is ending now I am the reason for your disappearance I hated myself and I loved you But now I'm sure that Refrain: Last verse: I'm fine You don't have to call Here or not I'm gonna be alright ×2 You don't have to You don't have to You don't have to You don't have to call He was even creating songs at this point because of how bored and interested he was in doing his work. Dija Chorus: You can go I forgive you for what you did But don’t expect me to forgive you for the scars you gave me You can call me weak You can boast about breaking me to your friends That you damaged me But that won’t change the truth The truth that I am over you You are out of my life And I won’t let you come back To destroy it Ver 2: I have learned from my mother and her mother To forgive people that hurt me They taught me that I will come out as the winner I will get the good deeds for it I believed it and now I am applying it on you After all you did to me I can say with confidence You are just another person to me A passenger passing by Ver 1: I was doing fine by myself But then you came Everything changed It took me while to forget your name The memories we had together But I did Last ver: You came knocking on my door You called me You played your role well The role of guiltless and remorse But too bad for you I can see right through you I know you are only doing this So we can get together So you can break me again Why can’t you live without bringing someone down Is it too hard for you? Is it your obsession to see me hurt? Well, I will tell you now I will never give you another opportunity to do so And with the last poem/song that was in his head was written down, he stared off in a distance, while still munching on a cracker, trying to understand why he was here? Why can’t he just go back? It wasn’t his responsibility to take care of kids, he was allowed to have a fun life, he didn’t get a second life to just burn it taking care of Lucas’s tempter tantrum and his inability to be away from him for more than a day, sometimes even half a day, because Lucas would want to be spoiled in that exact way. “I want to run away.” Kin uttered to himself, not realizing that Leonard was right behind him, he was listening in on what he was saying because he was interested in what Kin Was thinking about; ever since he left the house that day they hadn’t talked, not because he didn’t want to, it was only because he didn’t have the time to, with taking care of Jack and his business. Time was running low on his side he didn’t even have time to go clubbing anymore and since he broke up with all of his girlfriends, he won sometime else, which was money; he would have died of exhaustion and overworking. If he was still dating girlfriends, he would have had to spend time with them regularly which wasn’t convenient for him he was barely able to breathe without choking on a speech. “Running away? Where?” Leonard asked, after he noticed that Kin got awfully quiet compared to before, rambling about what he wanted to do with his life, with his crackers and the files he had on the table, with the occasional saying that his life was tough. “Where did you come from?” Kin asked as he saw Leonard’s face up close and got scared by the handsome squidward face he had, the perfection of it was frightening. “The door and you still haven’t answered my question.” Leonard said as he took a bite out of the cracker, that Kin had in his hand which offended him since that was the last one he had. “I don’t know, just a place far away from here. And the next time you try to steal my food, I’m going to shave your eyebrows, I am serious.” He threatened which only made Leonhard laugh and amused, and it got him to thinking about going away with him somewhere. “Do you want to go on vacation together?” Leonard suggested with a cheeky smile, half joking and half being serious. “Really?” Kin took him seriously and looked at him surprised, he didn’t think that Leonhard would have that kind of suggestion, but it pleased him that he did. “Yes, I can arrange someone to take my position for the maximum of a week and we can go somewhere.” Leonard’s company could fonction without him, but not for long, if he goes away for more than a week, his stocks would plum it and everything will fall down on his head; everything he worked on for years would just disappear, in a blink of an eye. “That’s awesome! I want to go somewhere cold.” Kin had already decided on what weather he would choose the country and perfect for him Leonard the perfect country in mind, to go to. “Canada?” He suggested and hoped for Kin to say yes, because he had been wanting to go there for a long time but he never had the chance, or more like he didn’t allow himself to have the chance to do so. “That’s perfect, I always wanted to go there, well in the real world but this is the same; anyway, when can we go?” Kin never had a chance to go on a vacation with someone, it has always been with his family and even with that he only went on a couple of trips for the twenty one year he was on earth and maybe that was because he didn’t like going to go to foreign places that often was slightly scary for him but but this was a different world, his family wouldn’t show up all of a sudden, when he would be out walking. “I don’t know, I will see with my team and determine when I can take a break.” A team of five people should always be the one responsible for the breaks he too, that was the only job they had and they were good at, since they basically were the one controlling his success and rest behind the scenes; they were even the ones hiring people to replace him when work got to him, but none of those people last for that long. You could say Leonard was special (you make me feel special, I remembered that phrase, it’s from a song by twice, it’s a nice song btw). And did I only write that six words sentence to mention feel special, yes, I absolutely did, this is my book after all. “Okay, I will wait for that, I will see when I can take a break too and I will try to align it with you, but anyway, let’s make a plan on what to do, we are staying for a week after all.” “You seen really excited.” “Is there anything wrong with that?” “No, it just makes you cuter.” “Stop with the flirting, I am not interested.” “Really, why so?” “Because I do not want to be with my brother’s boyfriend.” “Oh yeah, I forgot about it.” “Yeah, this is going to fail, why did I ever think this will work? I am dumber than I thought.”
