Warnings: Um, emoish? Alluded death. Hints at a shounen ai.

Zexion's POV
You've probably forgotten by now
when sorrow fell heavily on your shoulders,
but we were holding onto the hands of the stars
I stood there looking at the sky, a lone tear trailing down my cheek. That most hated thing. Tears. A sign of weakness. But that's not what you taught me is it? You told me to embrace myself, to love myself. So I put up a front to keep you by my side. I stood there, looking at the sky. I brush the tear from my face. That hated thing, wiped from existence as I watch the stars and think of you.
With one sigh, everyone resets
It's like a never ending loop everyday
we make detours right and left, which is nice
Just as the wind blows, so did we fly past each other out the front door
You can't hear me anymore
I restart my day the same as always. A shower, clothes, food, then to school. I stopped on my way to my car, the sky captivating my attention. I stood there and enjoyed the cool breeze whipping through my oddly colored hair. I remember. You used to tell me to enjoy the world around me. To savor the beauty that is life. I push down those retched feelings and continue on my way.
It was drawn in the night sky
The stars outline our story
Your heart still yearns for that illusion
I lay there under the night sky. You used to go on about how the stars gave you inspiration. They were your muse. I remember clearly how you used to bask in the light reflected off the Moon then suddenly a light bulb would go off and out came the pencil and paper. I stood and brushed myself off, ignoring the twisting pain in my gut.

but we were holding onto the hands of the stars
I recall how we used to hold each other when we got stranded in the rain. You would always look to the sky, as I held you, and say that you wished the stars had voices so they could tell us the tales of how they came to be. I would just scoff and reply that if the stars had voices then we probably wouldn't be able to shut them up. I turn my head and go to sleep.
You didn't need a reason that day
You traced the sparkling stars with your finger
It's okay if sleep starts to make you forget
Just as the rain falls, so fall the flowing tears on your lips
But no one notices
I found you one day, tears falling like a stream. You looked at me with such a sad face, an expression that was completely wrong on you. You reached your arms out for me and I hesitated. I could hardly hold my own tears let alone soothe your heartache. The rain fell hard. Your blonde hair drenched, messed from it's normal style. Those sad eyes of your's scared me away. I push away the thought and return to my book.

You forgave my weakness. You always did, though it was not acceptable. I was incompetent. You needed me, yet I remember how you would weave a tale of a life were you had reached all your goals and more. But sadly, through all those extravagant dreams, I was not there. I shake my head and put my work in my bag.

but we were holding onto the hands of the stars
I lie under the stars again wishing I could join them in the sky so far away from this life. I felt like though I was here I was seeing the world from their point of view. I saw your pain. Your distress. I saw you floundering, searching for a helping hand. I wanted to save you but it was not within my power to do so. I let you search and flounder because of my weakness. I blinked slowly throwing away those dreadful thoughts.
Even though the stars don't know your name
you can see their radiance shining, even from here,
The tears stop...You start to dream again...
No one can do it but you
I heard your voice first. That melodic sound entranced me so much so that I did not realize the pain entrenched in those words. You sang to the stars who glittered back like winking eyes that saw everything. I noticed your tears. I wanted to wipe them away. I desired to save you from your distress. If only I had the strength to chase away mine. I lean my head on the cool metal of my locker willing the pain to go away.

I stood with you, watching the stars again. You spoke of how when you were a child you would tell the stars about your experiences. About the pain you had, the sadness and stress. You said the stars were the only ones who would listen. I wanted to remind you that I was there for you. I wanted to say many things to you. Some about my feelings, others about how I could relate to your pain.
You won't ever forget
My flower has moved on and bloomed
The mark of your pain & tears is beautiful,
because it has made you what you are today
You made me strong and I thank you for that. Or I wish I could. I learned to accept myself. I thank you. The pain that I have experienced and how you saved me from the depths of my depression. The pain you lived would have made you strong. I know it would have. The pain, not me. How I wish I would have accepted everything sooner. Maybe then you would still be here by my side. The memory of your tears. Your soft blonde hair. Your eyes bright with life, or a pain so strong with one look you felt like you could drown. You were beautiful and you didn't even know it. I wish you did. I wish I could have told you. I wish many things but wishing will not bring you back. Maybe I can make it up to you when we meet again. But for now I will live my life how you wanted me to. How you wanted to. I will live for you.
A/N: Um, yeah. I got bored. Well, I'm tired and I couldn't sleep until I finished this. Hope you enjoyed it. Reviews would be nice.
