    Too much of you was lost.

    So you're crying.

    It's the kind of cry that summons tears from your eyes with seemingly no effort, making them fall down your face in glistening streams, and you're not even aware of them until you taste salt on your tongue. The kind that makes your frame shake and tremor like a walking fractured earth, that leaves you heaving and gasping for breath from the sobs that escape your lips, trembling and sad. The kind that leaves your teeth numb and your eyes unfocused, your mind wandering aimlessly, wondering where you'd gone wrong.

    But then you'll still smile, no matter how cracked you are in the face like a mannequin, a puppet used by a ventriloquist, with your songs gliding on your melodious voice and your cheekbones protruding with a fake flush. You're still smiling through your tears, and you do it day after day after day. But still, they don't see how brave you are, how strong you're being, and all they remember is that you let them down. No redemption except to rewind the changes, but time is cruel and impossible.

    You're crying, little hero.

    So why don't you show them?

    Heroes have no fucking right to bleed.


    I printed this out.

    I'm glad I saved this story for the weekend.
    Because if I had read it in the rush of my week, none of this would have made such an impact as it has now.

    I love you.
    And I love your faith.

    I'm sorry for the lack of a proper review,
    but it's not needed here.

    *has just been reminded of the pwning power of the Isa and walks away in shame*

    I wrote something similar to this, but it wasn't nearly as powerful and able to create so many different emotions with just a few words. I'm just...shocked, honestly. Not at the fact that you could write this; no, I've always known how capable you are and it doesn't need to be stated the 10,000 times I could say it.

    I'm shocked simply because of how real it is. I can imagine it happening, the words being said between these people, or at least exchanged some other way. And you completely nailed the reactions and everything. The descriptions were flawless as always, things most people would never even imagine.

    Then again, Isa's not most people:]

    I'm just absolutely speechless. I envy your style of writing dearly. Also, I adore the point of view you have written this in. Sorry for a not-so-decent review.

    Damn.
    That's the only coherent word I can muster to describe how I feel after that.
    Would the fact that my fingers are shaking mean anything?
    Damn.

    Wicked! And you are the sole reason why my faith is stronger tan ever.
    Isa, you are a true writer - an expressive creative one :]
    And that's why I needed to mention you onto my journal.

    I swear you are fucking amazing. I can't even leave a coherant review, everyone above me basically said what I wanted to say! I am going to subscribe to this even though it's a one shot, just so I always know where to find it if I ever need to remember why I keep the faith.

    It is beautiful. A wonderful work from a talented writer/artist.

    But were you real?

    Underneath, you were, which showed when you fell and broke.


    He is only human. We are only human. We have the right to make mistakes and be given a chance to correct the mistakes. But what do we do to him? We expect him to be perfect and flawless, which is impossible.

    People should read this. Not only his/their fans but other people, also. I am going to recommend this, not only to the other mibbians, but also to my friends [ who, unfortunately, don't have mibba accounts }.

    Wow.
    Amazing, ate.
    In Love :hug:

    That was amazing. It was just so perfectly true, and I can't describe how much hope I felt while reading it. I mean, if everyone read that, people would realize that they're all just human, right?

    You wrote it so persuasively, so well that there's no other option but to believe it.

    Honestly, I think you'd be able to convince anyone of anything with your writing.

    GOOOOOOOOOOOORGEOUS.

    Not to mention true, and probably necessary right now, when so many people
    are forgetting the damage they can do, not by losing faith, but by posting it on
    every fucking myspace blog they can find like they want him to read it.

    Ugh.

    I absolutely love your writing, the imagery you use...
    It's so delicate and beautiful and real.

    That was a gorgeous one-shot, and the ending was amazing.
    Youuuuu're so talented. ♥

    In Love

    Aww Isa. That was beautiful. It reminded me so much of that drabble I wrote on the same topic.

    I loved it, I did. It was all so beautiful.

    One thing I noticed though, some of the sentences are half finished then start one a new line. A little

    like this.

    And I think you missed the word "You" in this part.
    But

    weren't that anymore, weren't you?
    :S

    Good job again. :)
