A/N: So I don't really know where this one shot came from. I was just thinking about how confusing it must have been for Kairi during the time that she couldn't remember Sora… And this is what came out of that…
Who Are You?
Who are you?
I can hear your name and I feel it sitting on the end of my tongue, but when I open my mouth to speak it, words fall short and I'm only left with a vague memory that I can't remember. I see your face when I close my eyes and the warmth of your touch burns my skin still. But when I open them, you're gone, along with your memory. I wonder how I've made it this long without you… how'd I make it this long with only my dreams of a face I can't remember to satisfy my longing for you?
Your scent lingers everywhere on that God-forsaken island, though I don't know your smell. The breeze carries your laughter that I've never heard and the ocean waters only remind me of deep sapphire eyes that I've never seen. I can't go anywhere without seeing your smile, and I don't know why.
My friends tell me I'm crazy. But I know you're there… because I've seen you. Your image is chalked in the side of that cave. And I know that it's you because I drew it, even though I can't remember ever being there before…
That place is special to us, isn't it? I can sense you the most when I'm there, so I know it must be. It's almost like I can feel you, even though I reach out my hand and no one's there…
I've always been strong. Emotionally… Physically… Strong. So why is that I have to bite my lip to keep from spilling tears every time I think about you? Why is that I'm the only who knows about you? And most importantly, why can't I remember who you are?
I try to move on. I try not to miss someone that I can't remember… Because it only makes me feel vulnerable and frustrated and so incredibly hopeless and broken… And worse of all it makes me feel empty. Like some great big part of me is missing and I'm totally helpless to its power over me. And it kills me inside to feel this empty over someone that I can't remember.
But I can't move on. I won't move on.
Because, you made a promise, didn't you? I know you did, although I don't know what it was… I know that it's important and I know that one day I will open my eyes and you'll be there. And then all of this will make sense…
So I'll be strong for you. I'll fight for you and I won't give up on you. Because even though I can't remember you and I don't know who you are… I know that I love you.
