I spent hours on this, yet it's not super long. Oh well. I love the deep emotional plot of Dreamtalia, and I came up with a headcanon. What if the Faucherve is actually in love with Italy? Not love as in stuff like Gerita, but a different, much darker kind of love. I wrote this poem about it, and I'm actually pretty happy with what I wrote. Review, good or bad, anyone?

Partially inspired by the epic song Bad Apple

Dream of sweet things, Italia

Of pain gone with the light

As you sink into this sea of purity

Your blackened heart will fade to white.

One day he will disappear once more

And alone again you'll be

Trapped in endless battle with yourself

But I will set you free.

Unbind your wings, Italia

After all this time

You've been on the ground so long

You have forgotten how to fly.

I won't leave you as they once did

I won't break your heart

You've had enough of life, I know

It's okay to fall apart.

And when you close your eyes, Italia

I will be there by your side

I will take you in my arms

And watch you as you die.
