A creation formed from a personal experience. Dealing with a severe loss. I wrote this from me point of view, then it started to from Riku's point of view. Written in a male/male relationship way but of course could be read from anyones point of view.

Disclaimer: this poem belongs to me, all to me. Kingdom Hearts and Riku belong to Square and Disney. Critique is welcome.

I can still see you,
I can still fell you there,
Even though I know you arent
I try and I try to forget,
Little things trigger the memories.
And then theres nothing you can do to forget,
I see now whats lost,
A thing out of my control,
It takes more than me,
You claimed to be hurt so deep,
But even so,
Being hurt isn't a cause to hurt others,
Theres no cause,

As I am surrounded by darkness,
Your presence is suffocating,
I am to be like this always,
You were the one to leave,
Why must I bear the guilt?

I knew you were hiding things,
I knew things were dying right before our eyes,
Why must we be so dependant on one person,
When the leave, the pain is unbearable to take
Then theres nothing left,
Because your attempts to mend things,
Are thrown back in your face,
And theres nothing more you can do,
Except die inside
