In Our Hearts
A/N: A short little tribute to L, our favourite detective, who met his end at the tip of a shinigami's pen, and because of Light's schemes. Contains a little poem I composed.
This marks my tenth story/poem thing published! Hooray! –rejoices-
----------
He was the world's greatest detective.
Slain by a single mistake.
Slain by a shinigami named Rem.
Slain by a boy named Light.
But it didn't really matter.
He lives forever.
In our hearts.
Say goodbye to all my lies
Say goodbye to the tears I cried
The night that ran so long is now
Lost in the light of dawn
Shimmering into closing eyes
The light to darkness will defy
All my will to continue living
And allow me to die
I hear the sobbing of my friends
And comrades too around
But I'm thinking about heaven now
So I can't hear a sound
My heartbeat slows considerably
And I can't help but think
How those I leave behind will suffer
What the next day will bring
Finally I whisper one last word
To tell them it was time
That it was time for me to go
I tell them all 'goodbye'
Remember L.
