I do not own any of the characters mentioned below they belong to the BBC.
Why did I Arthur Pendragon have to die but Merlin live forever? Why did Merlin have live these many years alone? Why was it that he waited all this time for me? Did he never understand that I wished him to leave on that day not because I was angry but because I knew the road ahead was perilous. How I wish to be able to turn back the hands of time to prevent this from ever happening but I can't. I'm powerless. I'm a mere memory of someone I once loved who can do nothing but sit and watch his screams and pleads for this to be over. Doesn't he know that I would grant him this wish a thousand times over if it means I would never have to see another tear on his face again. If it meant that he finally got the rest he deserves. Merlin why does fate and destiny tease you so? Giving you the hope we will one day meet again but leaving you stranded in a state of never ending hope and despair that today might be that day but dashing that hope each and every day you return to the lake. The pain you must have felt watching your friends grow older and die before your very eyes yet you remain the same the noble and brave hearted servant I knew back then. Your eyes showing your every emotion whether it was anger, happiness or sadness I can only imagine how you must be feeling inside for your eyes to turn cold and blank. Oh poor Merlin I wish you only happiness and joy like the way it was back then before Morgana turned evil and before your eyes were tainted with the horror of war and death. Oh poor Merlin.
