She knew a boy who had the sparkle of the stars in his eyes, yet he used to ask her why did the world around him suddenly seem so bright. Among the rays of light, she was the one which wanted to drive away all the darkness he held inside.

But while she was busy falling in love with the boy with sparkle in his eyes, his darkness slowly killed her light. Copyright © 2015 by Scarlett Hades (@HaroldOnMe). All Rights Reserved.
