I don't own anything at all. There would be havoc if I did.

For those who don't want to figure it out on their own-

Roxas' lines are underlined and Cloud's are normal, whilst the bolded words are both together.


We saved the world.

From lurking darkness

From the company that stole the life of earth

Through friendships

Made in many worlds

Past the gates of death

And the streams of life.

Begin in the Station of Calling

And look inside my heart

To gain the Keyblade that will open the door to light

With the missing pieces of my memories

Forgetting the people who laughed beside us.

When I found out we were country boys

And when I found out I wasn't myself

My heart is my own!

So I doubted

Who am I?

I left the organization

I left the company

And fought against friends and foes

I killed a friend against my will

A friend died to save my life

And another to save the earth.

An ally told me what to do

I tried to defy, but fate had other things in mind.

I fought against the person I once looked up to

Who took everything away from my cherished childhood

Do I even have a heart?

I can't just look inside.

But a child

A pyromaniac

Scolded me

For living in the past

For not believing in myself

But I guess it doesn't matter anymore

It looks like my summer vacation is over.

It looks like I've carried a heavy burden

But I know

That I'm not alone.


How's about a little back story? My English 2 Honors teacher was setting up a poetry slam for all her classes, and we all had the option to get a partner. Me being the Kingdom Hearts obsessed fan that I am, wanted to do something relating to video games. Specifically Kingdom Hearts. Unfortunately, none of my friends that were in my period were into games much, so I talked to my teacher and asked if I could do my poem with a friend after school instead. She agreed, and so said friend I wanted to work with came up with the idea of her typing lines for Cloud, and me typing up lines for Roxas. It took us a good couple hours to think of the whole thing, and practicing was a real blast. I got bruises on my knees from continuously collapsing onto the concrete ground. Worth it. My teacher was pretty shocked in the end, because I was usually a quiet student, and then when I did this, I made myself sound pretty damn angry/confused/heartbroken/defeated/etc. I'm only disappointed that I didn't dress up as Roxas. In the end, I was dressed as Xion, and my partner was dressed as another character from Final Fantasy (it wasn't Zack or Cloud, nor Sephiroth).

That's that. This is my first Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy submission, and possibly my last, unless it's a oneshot, or people decide they want to see my writing skills and throw ideas at me. Which is more than welcome. But I digress. Thank you for taking a look, it's much appreciated. Toodles~
