xX Shadow's Reflection Xx

Can mirrors lie?

Every time I look,

I see that shadow which looms behind me,

And deny it.

"No you are not me."

How after all this pain,

After all this happiness,

After all this need,

Could I possibly leave without leaving?

My body is mine but my memories…

Were they ever?

You left me first,

Left me with these words,

These feelings.

"Never stop walking. I love you."

Who did you love?

Were you talking to me or…

How could have I lost everything before I even had it?

I never had it.

Always, always that shadow.

Because that was who you were talking to,

Wasn't it?

I never had you, but I had them.

Because I kept walking,

And found people who I cared for.

Then the shadow appears and again I'm left with nothing.

Why me?

Didn't I ever…

Wasn't I ever…

Enough,

For you,

For them,

For myself?


A rather dreary poem from Allen's point-of-view about the 14th, his friends, and Mana.

Thanks for reading!
