Title: Ashes
Author: [livejournal.com profile] shaddyr
Rating: ANGST! Oh, sorry, uhm... PG13 I guess...

Lyrics:
- Even when the dark clouds gather, you will be the light Never Be the Sun - Dolores Keane
- I’d never want to see you unhappy, I thought you’d want the same for me Almost Lover - A Fine Frenzy
(I thought we had to incorporate both sets of lyrics, so I did.)
Summary: Written for [livejournal.com profile] skidmo_fic's Song Lyric Challenge. People make hard choices for what seem like good reasons, and still lose everything in the end...

Author note: I *don't* write angst. I just don't. It makes me sad and I usually want to eat a pound of cotton candy fluff fic after reading angst. And yet, these lyrics spoke to me of angst and pain and suffering, whispering in my ear. ::cries:: So I'm sorry if this *sucks* because I don't write angst, but the muse, she wasn't listening to *me*, she was listening to the music...

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] the_cephalopod who looked it over when it was half done and helped me refine my direction.
