Woman-Child

Author: Celestia Vitaria
Disclaimer: I don't own star wars. This is a poem based on a character *I* created for my story "Dark Secrets" named Tiara Starfire. She is Qui-Gon's long lost daughter. If I get enough reviews, I might post the story. I mean no harm in this, so please no body sue me!!! I have nothing of value! Please R&R!!! I REALLY MEAN IT!!! AND NO FLAMES. ALL COMPLAINERS SHALL BE SENT TO THE SPICE MINES ON KESSEL!!!! MWA HA HA!! Ok, I'll shut up now. And now the moment you've all been waiting for...LOL!!!



She is innocent

She has done nothing to harm anyone

Some say she's naive

But she is not

She has seen far too many

Unspeakable horrors in her life

She appears so young

And yet her haunted eyes

Speak of something which is far

Beyond her mere 14 years of life

Abandoned unwillingly as a child

She wanders in a world of

Darkness and shadows

Lost and alone

The woman-child

With a heart of stone

The thought crosses her mind

That she needs no one else

That she can make it alone

But then he entered her life

Shining his light

Where once only a world of

Darkness and cold shadows

Were capable of existing

At first she attempts

To push him away

Unwilling to trust

Frightened of being hurt

But there is something there

Something about him that

Begins to ease her fears

He offers her shelter

Which she warily accepts

Amazed at his kindness

From there her destiny

Seems to slowly unravel itself

Before her very eyes

Frightening and exhilarating

At the same time

It takes a while

But the two companions eventually

Form a fledgling bond

Realizing things are as they were

Meant to be all along

She has a startling revelation

As her heart of stone

Slowly begins to melt in the

Comfort and love that she sees

Reflected in his blue/green eyes

As he holds her close to him

Almost protectively it seems,

Wiping away her silent tears

She is no longer

The girl she once was

No, not anymore

Never again

Something inside her has changed

She is no longer the same empty

Woman-Child

That she used to be.

Well, what do ya think of it? Love it? Hate it? Want to know what the Sith this person is on? LOL!! Want to read the actual story? Then leave me a review and lemme know. I won't post the story unless I get enough reviews, and if no one reads it, i'm taking it down. Oh, and in case you haven't guessed who the one with the blue/gray eyes who befriends her is, it's Obi-Wan.
