Faded Dreams
"This is the last time we fight together."
Those were the words I said
"When we beat Yevon, I'll disappear,"
Because I'm already dead
If I had my way I'd never leave
I want to be on Spira with you
Zanarkand can wait forever
Because our love is right and true
But as the last strike of the sword
Crosses Yu Yevon's chest
The time for me to leave is sooner
To be put to eternal rest
I can feel myself fading away
Turning into a distant memory
But one last hug from you is all I want
One last kiss, one last breath will satisfy me
You shake your head for me to stay
But we both know that can not be
But I want you to know that I love you
For all of eternity
"I have to go," I say
My voice catching in my throat
I walk towards the edge of the Airship
To be remembered by Yuna is my only hope
A scurry of hurried footsteps
are racing towards me
I turn around and hold out my arms
But touch is an absent certainty
You fall helplessly through my arms
And my emotions are showing through
Then you whisper three words that changed me forever
Those three words were "I love you."
I turn and walk towards you
Hoping to change fate
I wrap my arms around you
So that neither of us can escape
For an instant I was whole again
As our hearts were intertwined
But slowly I walked through you again
And I couldn't waste anymore time
As I jumped off the ship
And soared through the air
I knew you knew that I loved you
And that I would always be there
Auron, Braska, and Jecht
I can see them through the brilliant blue
And then I realized something, Yuna
I'm happy I died instead of you.
