(Firstly I'm so sorry about the lines, document manager didn't like the way this was typed so I had to use them to break it all up where there was suppose to be a space. Anyway! I was listen to Memory of Lightwaves of the FFX2 OST and I had the thought of Yuna writing down some of her feelings through the course of her years. This is looking back after the events of FFX-2 and it's based of well...let's just say a certin someone comes back in one of the endings :P Anyway, I really wanted to right this and it was mostly inspired by the music and my refinding of my love for the character :3 As always. Enjoy. Uh you might want to maybe have some tissues handy and feel free to tell me if you enjoyed it. If not then thanks for reading anyway!)

Cherish Me


2 years ago I met someone special.

2 years ago we rid the world of sin.

2 years ago…was the day I met you…and the time I lost you.


I remember the feelings between us, the uncertainty of what might have just been called love.

I knew my fate even then…but you forced your hand and changed my stars.

We grew closer as our journey carried on together.

I saw you laugh, I saw you cry and I even saw you smile.

We smiled together a lot of the time!


But after all was said and done…

You left…

You were their dream…and I couldn't share you. As much as I wanted to…

I watched you fade away…and painfully you said your goodbyes.

A part of me fell into slumber that day peaceful in my memories.

The other part cried in silence as I felt my heart tare itself in two…

My smile felt a lot thinner without you standing beside me…and the world a lot emptier.


Sin was destroyed, Spira was saved.

So many smiles that should have been there weren't…

I hoped to catch glimpses of you in the crowds, a familiar smile amongst all the thankful faces.

But you never came…and I knew it.

The Fayth had taken back their dream and once again…I felt alone.

I carried on pretending to smile. "Smile when your feeling sad" I said that to you once…I never noticed, how much I was smiling then.

But after so long…I found…this sphere of you.


The memories flooded back, my smile grew new branches.

And I set out with new friends, all in the name of fun…and the brief hope of finding you.

2 years is a long time though, people change. Gone were my summoner robes…but not my love of you.

That will stay with me long after my heart stops beating.

And so I set out on a grand new adventure!

All in the name of love!


But things never go as planned…

Spira began to pull itself apart again…

A new danger began to rise its head as we dived deeper into the rabbit hole.

Deadly whispers of Vegnagun were enough to stop the in-house fighting.

And the one behind it…he looked like you.

He followed a reason that was behind my journey.

Love.

But he had twisted, he sought revenge on the whole of Spira.


It was hard.

To see someone that looked like you…doing such horrible things to others.

He had lost her…but lost himself in the process.

He was the one I had saw in the sphere…not you.

Not the one my heart belonged to…

My resolve began to shatter, I felt like I was smiling for the sake of smiling again.

"Forgive us…be had no choice…"

The faded smiles began to play…

The ones who should have been here smiling with me weren't…

I didn't want to fight another battle that we had to loss someone in order to win…

I didn't want any more friends to die or fade away.

Your thoughts, the people we lost.

You all gave me strength when my own was not enough!


But then…

After the storm had passed…after the battle had finished…

They told me…that you were waiting for me.

My heart began to dance! The world began to lighten!

I felt less heavy than I had been.

The sadness was fading.

And my smile returning.


Cherish me Yuna!

And I'll cherish you!


That is something I will never stop doing.

Even I you are only still a dream.

My dream.
