Fairytale about a Spark by *Yasao:iconYasao:





~Fairytale about a Spark~

A little Spark escaped the fire.
The house burned to its grounds.
Left just ruins behind.
But nobody cared, nobody heard his screaming.

He was alone.
From the very beginning.
His mother died and he just suffered under his father's wrath.
There was nobody who cared for him.

The other boys just laughed at him.
They were not able to understand his behaviour.
The girls just ignored him.
They did not see his inner beauty.

He did not care.
The boy kept writing stories.
Drawing pictures about his dreams.
And he always smiled gently, when the sun sets.

Crackling and tinkling filled the air.
He got up and looked confused.
But then, as the fire touched his face,
He smiled tenderly and closed his eyes.

A little Spark escaped the fire.
Flew through the empty streets.
Left behind the cold city
And finally reached a silent field.

The night was moonless.
The Spark was glowing in the Dark.
Something rustled in the grass
And little fireflies rose.

They fluttered around the spark
Followed him on his path.
And he finally found someone,
He wasn't alone anymore.

Days later, some firemen arrived at the ruin.
Someone told them that the boy who once lived there was missing.
But they were not able to find his corpse.
They just heard a silent laughter and some fireflies passed by.

This is my first ballad I wrote in english ever ^___^
It just came into my mind last evening, because I was a little depressed, but when I wrote this, I felt better.

Please don't mind my terrible english >_<

I really liked this... Your English was fine. It was sad, but the metaphor was good.

Very sad though. =(

"You see life is like that. We change, that's all. You see, the guy I am now is not the guy I was then. If the guy I was then met the guy I am now he'd beat the shit out of me. Those are the facts."

Wow, that was so beautiful! :heart::bounce::heart: A very gorgeous piece of writing! =D The story is mysterious but not unfufilling, and that's why I love it. :w00t: It's also bittersweet but has a happy ending in a way, and I really like that too. :clap: Great job on this!
