~Author's Note~
My first fanfic *jumps with joy even though it's a depressing story* :D. A Halt POV poem I wrote when I was attempting to come up with ideas for a school poetry project. I am going to apologise in advance for any grammar errors (ughhhhow I hate grammar :| ). But it's just a little one-shot/between Halt and Caitlin when Halt is forced to leave Hibernia. Yup so read and review, please and thank you!
Eyes of Amber
Your eyes of amber glare back at me
Your voice is a drone, like you're under the sea
Suddenly you are livid, your eyes light up like glowing embers
Why you're upset, I forget, not wanting to remember
I lose myself for a moment hypnotized your cryptic gaze
Your eyes search through my soul as if it is a winding maze
How can you know so little, you haven't been alive very long
But, yet, can be so wise for one ever so young?
You were the only one believed me; you always offered the best advice
You always had a way with words and easily could melt my heart of ice
We stand there in silence, no words are spoken
Then your stare breaks from mine, as if a spell has been broken
You turn your head away even though I've known you for years
You think you're showing weakness and don't want me to see your tears
Now, I am forced to remember the cause of all your pain
Because of what our brother did to me, everything will change
How could my own flesh and blood want to kill and betray
This is just another unanswered question, but more reason for me not to stay
Your voice is barley a whisper I softly hear you say
"Halt, please, there has to be another way"
I shake my head sadly tears forming in my eyes as well
We both knew it was coming but we kept saying "only time will tell"
But the time has come and sadly, Pandora's Box has been opened
I haven't even left yet and my heart's already broken
Between us, there are not many words are left unsaid
What are left over are emotions and tears still to be shed
It seems to me that you were thinking along the same lines
I can stand to see you cry no more so I hug you tightly for the last time
We stand there a minute still wrapped in a tight embrace
I hope you know that in my heart you will forever hold a special place
I know I need to go; I turn your face toward mine
And softly whisper goodbye to your tear filled amber eyes.
A/N:
Well . . . that was depressing . . . Anyways, please review and tell me what you think! :)
