CODE OF ASHES / taekook

Revenge.

A sentiment that imbibes the capacity of one to feel any other emotion altogether.

He seeks revenge to make sense of everything, to demand fairness, to reclaim justice.

He doesn't say a word yet his eyes speak stories, they carry lava inside, so dangerous.

What happens when they cross paths ?

What happens when they are faced with one another, seeing the flawless reflection of their own selves in someone else?

Why does the calm fire in his eyes feel like the warmth my soul has ached for since the beginning of time?
Why do the furious waves roaring within his hollow gaze echo like a lullaby-haunting, tender-pulling me into the infinite, where chaos feels like home?

"I don't recall the moment my evasion began to pull you near...

So near that I need your presence for the nerves in my body to work
I need your touch to remind me about the pits of life remaining in me.

Your pain,

...your pain ignites something primal in me-

A need

a hunger to set the world ablaze
and rip the stars from heavens
just to let the warmth of that destruction
dry your tears...
and watch you bloom again
in the ashes of everything I'd ruin for you.

.. even if it means burning myself into the fire of what we are."

"The hell within me will consume every piece of you--
not out of malice, but because you walked into my storm and called it home."

It was the silent peace he implanted in my chaos
It was the code of his fire that burned my scars..

"I am not afraid of fire in me, I am terrified of the destruction it'll bring.. because the world is fragile, it's way to fragile to witness the storms of hell I'll unleash if anyone even thinks about laying a hand on you."
