Random Leaf #743

It just have to end, right? Be it happy or sad. If I get more invested beyond the wall I erected, it will really hurt. I just know it. I don't really care what happens to them. All I need is to hear what comes after. The rest may just as well become memory, right? Anymore than that, I might come to regret it. Me, searching for what comes beyond. Me, searching for the happiness they deserve. Me, searching them for myself.

They might be elsewhere where I live in. They need to hear what I want to tell them, what I need to tell them. They somehow become a part of me. They, in a brief moment, became me.

The princess that needed to be save. The lost prince that needed guidance. The frail cat that needed just one more push to find that leftover food in the last bin she failed to search because she gave up or she failed to notice it. The fairy who kept on wishing for a hero who cared only for the princess. That sidekick who got hit so hard that be him and his heroine had a fall out. The kid who's in the brink of going over thr edge. The little girl that couldn't find her teddy that was on her bed all along.

They're all me.
