I saw myself…

By…CloudNsword

I saw myself

Grasping the sword.

I saw myself

Getting closer to you.

I saw myself

Stopping myself

But there was nothing

To be done.

I saw myself,

Slowly with danger,

Holding up the sword

High in the sky.

Then, with powerful swing,

I saw for myself

The sword went across…

No, through you.

You still smiled

And didn't let any tears

Wet your face.

I saw myself

Dropping the sword

And running toward you.

I saw myself calling your name

Over and over.

I saw other myself

Pitying me,

Shaking his head

That there was nothing

To be done.

I saw myself doing all these

But there was nothing to be done.

But was I really sure

That there was no hope?

I closed my eyes

And opened them.

There was a light,

Very bright and white.

I stared and saw

Your hand reaching for mine.

I saw myself

Reaching for yours.

I felt warm,

Very comfortable.

I saw myself.

I saw myself

Going through that

Heaven-like place with you.

Then…

I opened my eyes wide.

It was another dream.

A foolish one, too.

I stood up from my bed

And walked around in my inn.

Then, I saw myself

Looking at you

As you were looking at me.
