TO YOU
Author's Note:
Hi again! This is my first poem, so don't blame me if it turns out strange for your taste. I'm inexperience. Anybody who can guess who write this poem and for whom will get the date when I'll update the Amber & Emerald again (kidding or not?). Well, I'll see who is the fastest to review and guess!
Disclaimer: Escaflowne IS NOT mine! (breaks into tears) The poem is mine, however.
PART 1
When I close my eyes, all I can picture is our first meeting place
Making my heart throbs painfully against my ribs
When I inhale the air deeply, I can slightly smell the scent of fields
Another reminder of you, causing my eyes to burn with fresh tears
When I listen carefully, sometimes I can hear the faint sound of flapping wings
Yet in the next second, everything seems to fall into silence
When I try to forget you, when I try to move on from you
I will always remember the warmth of your embrace, and I will always fail
To forget you…
We are far apart, I don't need anybody to tell me that
Why, it is something I know very well, we both know it well
There had been no goodbye when we parted, none of it
It was just the usual 'see you again'
Even though tears were running down my cheeks
And I knew that perhaps it was my last chance to see you
I can accept my fate
Yet I'm lacking of strength to do so
My god, sometimes I just want to give up
But I can't do it, my heart won't let me so
So I'll wait, even if it takes forever
I'll just wait
'Cause I'm too tired to keep going, yet I'm too afraid to let go
I'll just wait for you, right here
I'll wait for you
I won't forget you…
This is for you, just for you to know
PART 2
Here I am, lying on the grass, thinking of you
While my eyes are staring at the night sky above me, searching for any sign of a shooting star
So I can wish aloud what I have been wishing
At least that will raise my hope a little bit
I can't blame anyone or anything
If I can, then I will blame the fate
Yet I know that it won't change anything
I just want to be near to you
I just want to be as close as I can to you
I just want to see you smiling at me again
I just want…
For us to be reunited, once again
This is strange, I know it
We have crossed the line between life and death,
Yet we can't cross the distance between us
Are we afraid? I don't think so
I don't know about you, but
I feel hopeless right now
Sometimes I want to surrender and let go of you
But you surely know that I just can't
I'm not afraid, not even a bit
I just can't forget the way you smile
The way your eyes sparkle
The way you call my name
Everything about you
I don't know why I am doing this
I just can't describe this feeling
My feeling about you
Perhaps I'm the one who is too dumb to understand
Yet I understand something
I will never bear to let you go
So I will keep holding on this little hope
My hope to see your smile once again
To hear your laughter once again
To embrace you once again
To smell your scent once again
My hope to you
Strange, isn't it? I couldn't understand myself when I wrote this. Oh yeah, a clue for the quiz: the 'writer' of part 1 is different with the 'writer' of part 2.
R&R!
