We all want a great ending, from our movies, to our books, our sports seasons, and races. We crave closure, even better if it's a happy one. Being human however, we realize that not every book or season ends well. It is at times like these, that we lean hard on that reliant stunt double to take the fall, even if the ending isn't exactly how we had hoped, closure can still come through. Closure is as close to satisfaction that you can get without goin over. So what happens when closure doesn't arrive? What happens when the book just ends unexpectedly?When the rain troubled t-ball season is abbreviated, leaving the last two games unplayed and the result in doubt? What happens when the symphony packs up mid billet, and walks out, leaving you with half eaten popcorn? What if? And what if? What if it's more important, if it's that girl, or that boy, and you didn't so much fall in love. You more accurately, thew yourself at it with reckless abandon, and it disappeared right before your eyes? How should we react, when there is no neat excuse, no happy ending, no reasonable explanation? It's simply uneaten popcorn, unheard music, and a disappointing season? Lilt, is about that journey, About finding the quiet melody in the madness. At once knowing that "what cannot be said, will be wept", and sometimes, the only closure we get, is understanding that the lesson was in the living. Life can be the most unfair teacher, and sometimes the song is all we have to remember the journey. I hope you enjoy the song.

TW: this book may contain mentions of violence and of suicide. DISCLAIMER #1: I wrote this story when I was a teen and while some mental disorders are the focal point, they may not be accurate representations as I was far from being a psychologist. There are several things Lynn doesn't quite get about the world she lives in, which makes it harder for her to figure herself out. She is not your average teenager. She's young, intelligent, though something about her is off by now. Everyone is quick to misjudge and point fingers, everything and everyone is so corrupted that she's afraid she'll lose herself among a bunch of wandering, empty souls. Therapy can only help so much, depression is hard to die, and in Lynn's case it's caused solely by the fact she doesn't 'fit in'. She can't really find her place in the world. But there's something really special about her; Her dreams are haunted by a wonderful, mystical place. No one understands her, they think she's off her rocker, that she needs to cut her childish daydreams. But Lynn knows deep in her heart that place really exists, and she'll do anything to find it, with the help of some new found friends. There's only one thing she must do: Keep an open mind, it brings open hearts and open eyes. -- DISCLAIMER #2 This fanfiction is inspired to Mind Over Matter by Pvris and their lyrics in general. All you read here is fiction. every reference to real events or people is purely coincidental. I do not own the songs featured in the book.
