Once Upon A December

Things I almost remember,
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December

The sight of my sister, after so long, brings back memories of our childhood. Not that our childhood, in my eyes, was particularly happy, but it had Beatrice in it and I was content with just spending time with her.

Even when I knew I was Erudite not Abnegation, I still managed to go along with her.

The memories are almost there, but then I forget them again, as they break up into cold shards, like the snow in long ago Decembers, singing me to a death-like sleep-state where I can ignore everyone.

Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory

There was a time at school, in our childhood where there was no rush and no doubt, that music started and I so wanted to dance, but I was Abnegation so I didn't, instead I remained prim and proper, but smiling slightly at Beatrice.

This memory dances to the surface gracefully then quickly disappears as I became the fire and she became the rain.

Far away, long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart
Used to know,
Things it yearns to remember

I almost wish I could go back to that childhood, that long ago faraway place that I can only just remember, that I used to know and love, well, as close as love could get when you knew you were different, and I almost yearn desperately to pick Abnegation so I didn't have to be here, but then I remember Beatrice picking Dauntless, and I remember finally why I'm here and why I'm doing this.

It's all for Beatrice.

I decide I don't want to remember that childhood, and that girl who used to be my sister. I can't remember anyway.

Almost.

I almost can't remember. they still dance across my memory, taunting me. I kind of like it that way.

It's better than remembering who I used to be.

And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a December

I hope you liked.

Caleb needed some love *inset heart emote that won't show up :/* and this song so fits him and Tris, even though it's sung by a girl.

R&R!
