A/N: So, after the X Files ends, I'm sitting at home, bored one night, on the phone with my Girlfriend, and she's like, "Honey, you should watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it's a good show. And I'm like, "No." Well, guess who won that argument, just like every argument we have? She did. So here I am, now writing Buffy stories. Read and Review and if you feel the need to flame, do so, it doesn't bother me, as long as its constructive, and not just some stupid flame. And for those of you who don't know, Tara and Willow are gay, so please, don't flame me for liking Tara and Willow.
Dedication: To my Willow. I love you. Thank you for making me believe in myself when I think I have no talent. I love you.

Someday soon, we'll be together
It's the thought that keeps me going
What keeps me away from temptation
It was hard the day you walked out of my life
Walked away without a backwards glance
Telling me that you couldn't help me unless I helped myself
I came back to you, saying I had made a mistake
I was through with the temptations
I was through with the one thing that kept us apart
So, we got back together, with promises
We were closer, and more in love than ever
Until the day my world shattered
You were suddenly gone and I was left alone
So alone, holding only your shell in my arms
Depressed, consumed by grief and guilt for not being able to bring you back
I snapped
I avenged your death
Killed the person who took you away from me
Revenge was mine, or so I thought
Yet, I felt no satisfaction
Killing him didn't bring you back
And I knew you wouldn't approve
Me avenging your death
Even though your life ended in a single moment
So tragically, so senselessly
So, my soulmate, my love
I try to move on from the grief that I am enclosed in
That fills my soul with darkness
I can never forget you
Because forgetting you would be denying that you existed
And I could never do that
To forget that would be like forgetting myself
Someday we'll be together again
Together forever, never apart
It's the thought that keeps me going
The thought that keeps me away from temptation
