For wars and rebellion should never be started on a whim. It comes first from the heart. That silent beat that gradually echo louder and soon enough cover everything. It will be heard, my friend. Do not fret. War is where good men go and were strong heart prevail.

He woke up realizing everything was just a dream. Yet the tears that swelled up in his eyes made it impossible to disbelief.

"With that look and those piercing eyes of yours, aren't you looking down at the whole world?" the student asked. He couldn't hide his feelings were stepped upon with the way the master was both nonchalantly speaking and observing them.

"Is that how it seems?" the master asked. "I am but carefully observing. I am fond of the bird's eye view of looking at things, you know?"

No one knew the truth,
but, surely, to the ones
saved and saviour.

For the gods are both: just and unjust;
good and not good; fair and unfair.

The victim was actually saved
and the ones left is a deep scar
paid by all of the race revered.

She knew what had to be done,
While the fair beautiful lady,
though unaware, was saved.

And the beautiful eyes that was left
are but sins committed by love unrequited.

"You surrendered to me all the while knowing of my flaws and sins I've done and will probably do. I might as well call you mad if you actually have no ulterior motive," I blatantly asked. I was aware she already knew at that moment.

"I just," she answered with a blood dripping by her smile.

"You are mad," I claimed and took a stwp back.

"I am in love," she replied. Her eyes were still brimming with the same passion and enthusiasm as we first met.

There were no actual words just there hearts beating.

Without an end it will continue on bleeding all thw while beating. The heart will go on weeping. It will go on looking for something.

For she too wanted to smile much like the rest of them. Yet she was, on her own right, solely unique and different.

"Was he happy after?" asked the spirit.

"Tears slid down his cheeks. Yet he did not know why. He wiped it off and continued dreaming." I recounted.

"Was it tragic?" the spirit moved back and gave a sigh of melancholy. He too does not want tragedy.

"It was the birth a of a new god. Should it not have been joyous?" I asked as I tried to lighten the mood.

"Does the cost equal the worth?" the spirits eyes turned clouded. Ripples of tears were forming beneath his eyes.

"There's more to the story though," I answered. "It was not only the new god that was bestowed a gift. Even the girl herself were too rewarded."

"What happened to the girl?" the spirit's eyes brightened.

"She too forgot about him. It was to save her from grief." I answered without thinking and regretfully after.

"So it was as if the two never knew each other?" the spirit asked.

I nodded. I went close to the ears of the spirit and whispered.

"There's more to the story though."

And the moment they met once more, his immortality was suddenly lost. And the stories killed him unbeknownst to the world the happy ever after he actually felt. The world need not actually know it.

Random Leaf #1258

Maybe he did actually saved her. In exchange, the god of memories made him forget. The world needed a god of dreams, anyway. Who greater candidate would it have been if not for someone well renown but unattached to anything mortal.

Random Leaf #1257

To the humble man who only knew strength. I pity you. Though you may not know, your fellow scorn you. They adequately abhor and deeply despise you. You are never loved to begin with. Yet you are unaware. Or perhaps you are. Yet you disregard it.

They are looking back truly at the ones who are looking back. To the void itself, they are the void.

To the faithless and the sinner, what little push would it take just to tug their heart off the edge?

Random Leaf #1254

Was it ever too much to ask for order in a chaotic world?

"What does loneliness feels like?" asked the spirit.

"They were never there," I jokingly answered. I expected a laughter but all the spirit gave was a simple nod.

Random Leaf #1252

"What sets you apart?" asked the curious spirit.

"They see me human as they are. As I really am. It's hard to say if they ever noticed that all I ever asked for was a company. Nothing else," I nonchalantly answered. I already knew that they were never aware.

"Will you come back to me?" she asked. Her eyes were tearing up. I can feel her soul overflowing. She want me to return. I do too. But I couldn't.

"If my pride would ever let me," I dishonestly answered. I, too, wanted to stay with her.

It was just puppy love. A simple fleeting childish love crush. Nothing more than that. Sooner or later, I'd forget about her.

And you cried out to me. I do not know your name nor did you ever knew mine. All I heard you shout: help me. I have been waiting for all this time for you to tell me. I'm glad the cliff was not to high nor to steep. Else I wouldn't have been able to catch you.

Random Leaf #1248

I was standing at the bottom of a cliff. My thoughts flooded as the rain continued to pour. I don't want to let go and yet I want you to be free.

And suddenly the villain stopped in his march. He lift up his sword, opened his palm and let his weapon fall to the ground. 

"I should have realized," the villain said. "It is too much for me. The world may be cruel but I cannot match it's harshness. I pale ultimately in comparison."
