Normal is boring, danger is exciting

Audrey オードリー

Lyrics:

“Our shadows blending
And my hand is shaking,
When touching your face
I feel your pain...
Your fire’s burning,
My heart is melting...
This song...


Is not about us, is not about us,
Another man to forgive, another story to live!
Is not about us, is not about us,
Another man to forget, another love to regret!
Cause is not about us!
Oh, no no no, oh, no no no

 
Recently, I am into creative writing. Creative writing is typically fiction or poetry, which displays imagination or invention, which often contrasts with academic or journalistic writing.

This is my favourite song.  The lyrics are simple and yet the emotions are so strong. 

Below is a short story based on this song:


No one told her that love is painful..

Love is painful when you fall in love with somebody you shouldn’t love, somebody you cannot love.

A man who is wounded...a woman who is wounded… when two wounded people get together and fall in love, it is very painful…

She knew from the start, that he was not the kind of man she should be seeing.  However, she thought that “normal is boring, danger is exciting”.  That’s how the story started.

She thought that she could tame him, but she couldn’t’.  A man like that cannot be tamed.  Many women before her have tried but failed.

She was a complicated woman, he told her.

She wondered, how come she couldn’t have a normal life like everybody else?  How come she couldn’t settle with a normal man who could make her happy?  She tried, but she felt restless.

This man was different.  She felt alive when she was with him.  He ignited the fire inside her. 

Every time she saw him, her heart would melt and all the pain was worth it. 

And when he left, she was all alone again.
