~~~All I ever wanted~~~

Opinions never meant much to me, not if I had you by my side.

I could have lived this life with a light heart and a smile on my face with you there.

Tears were signs of weakness—I knew that—but I couldn't help but let them fall freely when I learned of your demise. In the deepest part of the night I let my sorrow condemn me and now we're here.

Again.

I can't bear the look of hate as you look at me and say what you feel. Never remembering me. My heart is bound in black and placed faraway so that you cannot reach it anymore.

I do not miss you anymore.

I smile bitterly and rejoice outwardly for their sake as I'm told of your demise yet again. While inside I believe I'm falling into pieces.

I slipped away from them and went to where you lived out your last moments. In a catch of wind, something flows past me. I hold out my hand and discover a shred of white cloth the last remnants of you.

In my palm they disintegrate as you did.

Fading, fleeting. Unlike the lie everyone speaks: true love is forever.

Nothing is forever.

Ashes to ashes, dust-to-dust, right, Ulquiorra?
