Treacherous || Manuel Neuer

Treacherous

« Manuel Neuer fails to give up on his special Denise.

What happens then? »

Thomas, Thomas

You're so stupid

Your wife, Denise M-ü-l-l-e-r

Is now widowed

You're so stupid, why did you die?

Denise's beautiful eyes are blurred from tears,

Her nose constantly sniffling from fears,

And you caused this.

God knows why the car crashed into you

I saw you collapse down the ground, 

Blood bleeding everywhere

So why did I stand there?

I'm a terrible friend, falling in love with your wife

And not budging an inch when you died.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry

I'm so selfish,

I talk gibberish, think rubbish

I wish I died instead of you Thomas

I could rest in peace then.

And I know I've decided to give up on Denise

But I can't, the pain won't ease

For both of us, both of us

Someday, I wish you can understand

About a love so hazardous but flame-treacherous.

Denise, Denise, Denise

Denise, Denise, Denise

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

I'm supposed to give up on loves that cannot be

I'm supposed to cowardly go and flee

But then, can I give up on thee?

This love is impossible

It's ridiculous I'd be smart to walk away

But I'm not.  

This hope is treacherous

It's foolish

But for Denise-it's worth a try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've told her, yes I have

I think she was surprised

Basti was too, all of them

Her eyes looked at me

Straight through my chest, my heart

She shook her head and ran away

You don't know how much it hurt, even if it sounds cliché

Basti looked at me and asked,

"I thought you said you'd give up on her?"

I shook my head and said,

"I can't, I've decided. Life's meaningless without her."

His look of disappointment said it all

But everything's upset at me anyway.

I'm still continuing my career, as always

I'm playing for Thomas, my old pal

In remembrance, in hope of forgiveness

But do angels learn to forgive quickly?

I don't know.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Denise is here

It's the first time she's shown up at practice since Thomas passed away

She seems to have cried a lot

It's because of me.

Basti pats my back,

"Good luck. I warned you."

Is it possible? Is it possible that, maybe, Denise will agree to my thoughts?

No. That's the impossible. But people are meant to possible it.

She clears her throat,

"Manuel, I'm here to tell you what I think."

She trembles to find the correct thing to say, 

Her hair blowing infront of her face,

As she whispered  the next few magical words

That I wouldn't have ever imagined

"I was a bad wife-I fell in love with you too."

Before I could answer, she told me a heavenly phrase

Just three words.

*feeling poetic*

That's my ending for Foudroyant; I hope you liked it! 'Foudroyant' is a beautiful poetic story by Maria aka @arsenalgeek, if you don't  know. Neuer and Denise were one of my OTPs, so I wanted to end the story with them together. The ending is inspired by 'Eleanor & Park', it's a fabulous book if you haven't read it. And yes, the whole idea started from Taylor Swift's 'Treacherous' ;)

The cover is made by lovely lovely Deborah, thank you so much!! @irwinthegod
