The Dark Side of Your Moon
by: Princess Cora

It will be the hardest thing I ever did. I just know it. But I've promised, you see, and I promised you that I never break my promises. I didn't know it would backfire like this, but don't you see it's because I want you to trust me? I'm not the type to be trusted, and maybe the rest of the world will scream it all out, but I hope you can understand why this means the opposite. It means I don't just pick who to be faithful to, it means that I'm not selectively trusting. I'm sorry to say that I wish I hadn't, now. I wish I was a bad person who could turn his back on his promises to be with the one he loves. Je suis le côté sombre de ta lune.

But I can't do that, and you know it's true. As they say in the song, there's something kinda sacred when it comes from me and you, or something like that, and I will firmly believe in it. You had the courage to believe in me when no one else did, so keep that courage when I leave in the morning.

I will miss you. I will miss you so much that it will almost tear me apart. I can already feel the edges of pain creep in on the overwhelming love I have for you. I already miss your hair, your eyes, your smile, and you're still sleeping peacefully next to me. What will I do without you? You've given me so much that I might not know what to do when you're gone. And I'd like to think that you will miss me as much as I miss you, but who knows? We never wasted time on words.

I never promised that I would always be there. I never promised that I would give up everything for you. I never promised not to leave you. I never promised the Dark Lord that I would always serve him – I never promised that I would not be secretly rooting for the other side. But I did promise that I would love you forever – and I promised the Dark Lord that when I turned eighteen I would join him. However, today I am making a new promise. When I get a chance, I promise that I will do everything in my power to come back to you.

And when you wake up and find me gone, just look up at the moon, and know that we all see the same side of the moon. Tu nommes des moyens "moon". Tu es comme la lune - tu as un côté que tout le monde voit, et un autre côté, le côté sombre, que tu montres seulement me. Perhaps one day you should learn French, so you can understand my speeches. Or perhaps you won't, because it would take away the exotic beauty of hearing me speak it. Un aigle, peut-il aime un serpent? La réponse me regarde dans la face...

I never made promises but this one I'll keep
There's something kinda sacred when it comes from you and me
Can an eagle love a snake?
The answer's staring me in the face...
Although I know I'm falling in love
It may get worse, but tonight all bets are off

Author's Notes: wow, REALLY cliched title.... anyway see if you can guess what ship it is ~.^ for the French, I'd suggest using freetranslation.com ... that's what I used to translate it, along with some edits from my two years of high school french, but I double checked it in freetranslation so if you want to know what the beep he's saying, go ahead... also, the song at the end (and mentioned in the middle) was written by me for a fic completely unrelated to this one, I changed a few words in fact, but it's my song so I can do that, bwa ha ha.
