Faltered Faith
This day, it holds so much for me
I try to lock away
But then my wall of bitterness
Begins to slowly fray
I think of times of innocence
When we dreamed and built our raft
But looking back upon it now
Our hopes and dreams seem daft
I long for what I deem is fair
And pray for what I dream
The stone I hold so close to me
And love is what it means
I wait for him, come back to me
On this special day
A year of hope and nothing
So my faith begins to sway
But love is what keeps me alive
And lets my hope live on
Our hearts are one, connected
So I know he isn't gone
The last time that I felt pure joy
Was when Riku and Misty returned
But with them came my loneliness
And so it stayed and burned
Another year is drifting by
My bitterness comes back
Another year of loneliness
My hope and faith I pack
So then another year goes by
Again, this horrid day
"It's stupid, and it has no meaning"
To myself I try to say
I see the love around me
And my soul begins to scream
I treat my friends like crap today
To blow a little steam
Approaching now the fateful time
To him I turn my thoughts
A breeze from nowhere calls to me
And with myself I fought
It's just a breeze, it can't be real
I'll just be let down hard
But curiosity grips me strongly
So I play my final card
I walk to where the rock is open
My eyes begin to mop
I feel the rock leave my hand
And so my heart does stop.
I owe the inspiration for this poem to "Riku of Darkness", a talented writer who wrote the original story "Faltered Faith", check it out; it'll make it easier to understand my poem. It's on as well.
