Thoughts
Thoughts
An unwelcome guest
That refuses to leave
The one that will walk in
As if they own the home
You call the mind.
They can be safe
They can cause joy.
For me
Itâs the pain.
The pain of thinking
The pain of knowing
That if I listened
I wouldnât be here.
Knowing that if I listened,
Everything would be different.
Thoughts are different,
But they carry the same message.
When I was younger,
They were a safe zone.
Now that Iâm older
They are a death sentence.
Thoughts that yell
Despite how silent they truly are.
A silent knife
To a heart unshielded.
If I listened
Would they finally leave?
If I took the plunge
Would they finally become mute?
We shall never know
Because the thoughts keep me silent.
From the observations
That I never asked for.
The thoughts will announce things,
How skinny that girl
That girl in my biology class,
Who has a family perfected
Who has friends and is popular,
How that girl in my biology class
Shouldâve been me
If I had only listened.
The thoughts will point out that kid
With a present father
And a picture perfect home
And say that couldâve been me
If only I had listened.
If I had listened
I wouldâve been happy
I would be happy
If I listened to the thoughts
That were once a safe haven
That have turned into my own personal prison.
Shrouded in the lies people would say.
Once a gift
Now becoming a curse.

Wolfstar fanfic cause Iâm bored, it will be up after I post this so, fair warning it made me cry writing it, and is now my beta readerâs 13th reason. It is angst, there is no happy ending, I would guess. I mean the end is slightly happy, but like in wolfstar, no happy ending. Pure pain, have fun!
Pain
A pain
Only so many would feel.
A world
Shut away to those
Who wished it to open.
To them,
The life in those pages
Seemed so perfect,
So colorful,
So romantic,
So fantastic,
So real,
That when the end came
They would mourn.
They mourned the deaths
Of a person who didnât know them,
But they would still cry
For they knew the person
They knew all you could
Except for how the character
Would live on.
For this was the final page
And they had died
As was the fate chosen.
So, the people turned
To their minds
Their heart heavy.
A pain
So real
Yet so distant
A pain towards a world
They could never experience
Hence why they mourn.
Yâall I was watching labyrinth, again for the 800th time because ye, and came to the conclusion that Jareth would fuckin DESPISE me. Because the entire movie is just be climbing the fuckin walls of the labyrinth. Like if Jareth gonna cheat so shall I. Not to mention with the ballroom scene Iâd hide in a corner, like im not tryin to find him in that sea of people, ima do what a good socially anxious person would do and hide away, he gotta find me now. Also the stairs would make me so sick, like I played a vr version of the movie that someone made on recroom and felt like I was gonna puke after a few minutes to where I had to sit down. Iâd probably not even get into the ballroom scene tho just because I donât like peaches, which is what Sarah had to eat, so hereâs how thatâd go down:
Hoggle: âHere eat thisâ
Me: âno thanks, Iâll just be hungryâ
Hoggle: âbut, you need to eat, itâs good.â
Me: âI donât doubt it, I just hate peaches, too fuzzy it feels weirdâ
Hoggle: âwell, at least Jareth cant yell at me for it.â
And the door scene im just indecisive so, both of the door scenes Iâd sit there thinking, and then would climb the wall.
Memories / Wolfstar
The pain from losing his best friend hurt, Remus barely coped, when he started remembering, it wasnât a happy memory though, it was the mistake he made before.
(Also posted on my AO3 account, message if you want the link to it since I will probs post more there.)
It was late, and it was cold, yet he didnât seem any closer to going inside, afraid of what he might have to face. Remus had barely a single conversation with Sirius before he was gone once more, unfairly taken again, only this time, he wouldnât have the ability to come back.
âRemus, deary, you need to come inside, he wonât be happy if you join him now.â Molly said gently, coming outside with him. That's right, Siriusâ home had closed to him, he was at the burrow, the new meeting place of the order, the group of people who got Sirius Black killed, no it wasnât their fault, it was Voldemortâs, and his fault alone, as well as Bellatrix.
âNo thanks Molly, I need to head back to my home, I will see you tomorrow.â Remus replied, his voice shaking slightly, the pain more obvious.
With that he apparated away, but not to his home, but the shrieking shack, a place that held his worst memories, and yet he was drawn to it. Memories of his last day flooded his mind, a particular moment he had wished to forget.
June 25th ,1978, the shrieking shack,
âRemus, will you just listen to me! For once in your life just stop and listen to me.â Sirius Black was heard exclaiming, the boy in front of him just sitting on the beaten down bed. Remus just shook his head, not wanting to hear the words that needed to be said, not wanting to admit that it was finally over. The best thing in his life, now over, in a few years it will be nothing but a painful memory.
âNo Sirius, you listen, you always have the final say and I am tired of it. You have to be in control all of the time, and I canât deal with it.â He shot back, the other just stood there, shock being the only readable emotion on his face.
âI canât keep doing this Remus, it hurts me too much to just watch you destroy yourself, I love you, I really really love you, but I canât keep acting as if I canât hear your cries at night.â Sirius decided, going up to the boy, whose head was now hung low. Gently, as if not to startle him, Sirius brought his hands up, cupping Remusâ face, the otherâs eyes looking anywhere except his fellow marauder. âRemus, please look at me.â
âI canât.â He replied, his voice barely there, the tears he had been holding back finally getting loose, only for Sirius to wipe them away.
âOne day, when we are both finally ready, we will find each other, and live the fairytale ending you deserve. I love you.â Sirius whispered back, planting a kiss against the boyâs head, before leaving the werewolf alone.
June 13th, 1996, the shrieking shack,
âI was ready, and you were too, yet still, you left.â Remus found himself whispering, not towards anything in particular, seeing as the one who he desperately wanted to hear him, never would ever again. Remus couldnât handle it, and felt himself falling, crumpling on the ground.
June 27th, 1978,
It hurt, more than Remus would ever let on. Over and over, he just thought about what Sirius had said to him, knowing in his heart that it was built on nothing but the truth. He still shared a room with the guy, hell, sometimes he found himself wishing that Sirius would slip into his bed late at night again, when he thought Remus was asleep, only for the boy to turn over and pull Sirius into his embrace, needing the contact just as much.
âRemus, you're in your mind again, what did you want to talk about?â the aforementioned boy asked, causing Remus to shake his head lightly.
âYeah, right, sorry. Look, I can't keep acting like everything is okay. And I know itâs messed up that I just pushed you away, but I canât see it ending well if you actually become a part of whatever life I will have after Hogwarts.â He explained.
âWhy do you do this Remus? I ask to be part of your life and all you can do is push me away. What is so impossible about us being together that you have to end it before anything gets started?â
âDonât you see, Iâm a werewolf Sirius, the hate you would get and the unfairness of it all, I canât force the person I love to go through that.â
âSo sad, a few unimportant people get butt hurt. Why canât we have a family huh? Because youâre a werewolf and Iâm gay?â
âThat's just it Sirius! Why do you think Iâm trying to get rid of you? When I look at you all I see is everything I canât have. It hurts too much.â
âWhat? Explain what you canât have with me right now.â
âThis, happiness, a family.â Remus exclaimed, his voice now raised slightly. Sirius only shook his head before leaving for one of the last times. âYou, Sirius, I canât have you.â
June 14th, 1996, in front of 12 Grimmauld Place,
Remus didnât know why he came here, why his mind told him to. That was before a noise came from behind him, that noise belonging to Harry, James and Lilyâs son, the two just stood in silence, as the final remnants of what the marauders once were.
âMy mum wanted you and Sirius to raise me, so did dad.â The green-eyed boy said, causing Remus to look at him.
âSirius wouldâve been the most chaotic father alive to you.â Remus jokes, Harry nodding in agreement.
âHe loved you, he told me, how no matter how long, one day you would be together again, in the way that it was meant to be.â
Remus could practically hear how his heart plummeted, unaware that Sirius ever told anyone about the life he and Remus shared for such a short amount of time.
âI love him too, with every bit of my heart.â He admitted, meeting Harryâs eyes, only to be greeted with the same eyes that Lily had, the first person he ever told, the one person he would confide in about his forbidden feelings towards Sirius. It broke him, but not in a way that would cause you to lock everything out, no, this was a different kind of break, one that was freeing in a sense, and Remus found himself smiling for the first time since Sirius Black had gone through that veil.
Unbeknownst to the pair, a black dog was watching them from afar, hearing everything that they said. âI love you too Moony.â He said, before turning, seeing the man that died long ago. âRegulus.â
âCome on Sirius, Potter says you kept him waiting long enough, Evans can barely deal with it anymore.â His brother said, Sirius nodded, standing, and bid farewell to the marauder one last time.
âTake care of him Moony, it's up to you now.â

Bro no why???? I liked the old oneeee, go back. I like the little man guy, but I donât like the background, and my favorite color is red so. đ«
