~Waiting for Forever~
Half-Moon
I looked up to where the moonlight was washing down upon me from the crack in the roof of my cave, and sighed.
I hade long ago admitted to myself that my time had come, and after a lifetime of leadership and loss, I welcome the coming peace.
I have lived a long time, and have done so much. I have lived by the lake, traveled to the mountains, became the first Stoneteller, and had sent half my cats off, never to see them again.
I deserve my rest.
And yet, as always, there was a tiny flickering of doubt, a spark of uncertainty that I have done the wrong thing. No matter how hard I try to push it away, it was always there.
For, you see, I had once known love, and although he had left me, not once but twice, I still love him with all my heart. He walks my dreams, stays beside me by day, never leaving my side.
I am still waiting for him, and I cling to the hope that I will see him, wherever I go when I pass. However, in my heart of hearts, I knew that I would not.
But even so, I will still wait, however long it takes.
As I felt the darkness start to take a hold, I let go of the doubt for the first time since he emerged into the sun.
"Oh, Jay's Wing."
"I will wait for you, as long as it takes. I will wait for you forever."
