Don't Leave Me
Chapter 1:
One Less Bell To Answer
Another day, alone in my house; I can't believe he left me. He didn't die he is on a journey, a mission for GUN. I don't think he is coming back but at the same time I do. I am not confused, I am having a confliction. I love him all the same. I always think he comes home when I answer the door; it's not him every time.
Shouldn't I be happy…
He isn't here anymore…
He just left me alone in this house…
I just can't forget it…
Even when the doorbell rings…
I still run for it…
I love him so…
I don't have to clean up after him anymore, but not all the time is he lazy. It was actually fun to pick after him but all the more, I have more time for myself. Always being alone at night keeps me scared because he's always there to make me feel safe. Our laughter, our love is what keeps this going on. There's no more happiness in this house. It's just empty and spacy. I'm kinda starting to get claustrophobic.
One less man to pick up after…
No more laughter…
No more love…
Since he went away…
Chapter 2:
A House is Not a Home
This house is so empty… All I see is furniture and empty chairs, and that special chair I bought for Shadow as a gift. It was a black leather rocking chair with a matching, rocking ottoman to go with it. No one sits in it. I don't even sit in it. It still smells like Shadow, his musky smell of leaves and a waterfall mist. There are even little hairs of his fur on it; mostly I can see is his whit chest fur. It's always so soft, but it's been a long time since I remember the feeling. I miss his touch; me hugging him, he hugging me; me kissing him.
That chair is still a chair…
Even when there's no one sitting there…
But it is not a house…
And this house is not a home…
No one to hold me tight…
No one I can kiss goodnight…
Sometimes when I come back home I always think Shadow is home waiting for me. It's always a home when he's there… I'm still lonely in this house. I turn the key, he isn't there. He can't even call. I'm not mad I'm just worried, and sad, I might even be depressed. I don't talk too much anymore, that's what Tails says. I'm not so energetic, I don't run anymore. "I want Shadow Back!" I yelled into my house.
I'm not meant to live alone turn this house into a home…
When I climb the stair and turn the key...
I just hope we both learn from this; that we can't stay away and that a promise is a promise. I hope that we don't become apart because of this mistake. I let him go promising to be here for him; he promising to come back alive.
So please have a heart…
Let no mistake tear us apart…
My Shadow,
All I do in the morning is cry… every time…
Please be there… still in love… with me…
One less bell to answer in this homeless house…
