Ok this is a sweet poem, sad, yet full of fluff and love between Luke and Mara Jade. Mara lies in the shackles of death and Luke must piece himself together over her death. From both of their point of views, every other stanza is written from the other's perspective. Make sure you have tissues!

I don't own Star Wars so don't sue.

Please read and review.

In the Memory of You and Me

By Aiko "Kitty" Skywalker

Your life may lie in the shackles of the end

Your heart may stop its beating

Yet I know that as I stand

And look upon your face

You shall continue living

In the memory of you and me –

I still remember the times

In your young Jedi days

Your heart did beat as a single tone

A wing of the honest, the good, and the pure

I was but a woman in need, evil to the core

Yet you showed me the force, you showed me the love –

You were but a woman

I have known more women than you

Yet you stole my breath away

Though evil crashed amongst your heart

And the murderous sort stole your eyes

You were able to see the good in me, not in anyone else –

My heart did bleed upon the ground

As you walked away again

Yet as I held your hand against my own

And felt my salty tears

I as a Jedi female fell

For the Jedi male of dreams –

You could never understand how I felt the first time

I heard "I love you" escape your lips

I asked you to marry me

You didn't falter in your acceptation

And our love never faltered for a moment

The Jedi order long ago gave away and I should be with you –

You threw away the rule of it all

You were willing to give it up

But with a spirit soon to be a shinning

You knew the truth be known

You took the rules upon yourself

And threw them out the window –

You were mine and I was yours

For a short time anyway

We married on Coruscant

Our first child was born to the two of us

However here you are lying there

Your end is soon to here, and I am helpless to intervene –

I love the way you look at me

And you look upon our son

Ben was his name, after your first master, your heart is in his eyes

But my love I cannot bare to not ask how can we last

On my dying day?

You try for the courage built inside, fight the tears from falling –

I love your heart and I love your courage

You can't help but hold him tight

You'll love our son to the end of your dying day

As he whispers "I love you mommy"

I can't help but break down and weep for you my love are lying dying

My good lady, my Mara –

My Luke I see those tears of yours

I lie dying and you stand weeping

Why do tears fall for me?

You beckon him away

You hold me close again

And I shall always remember, you my love, my soldier, my Jedi –

I stand here alone

I feel your heart stop beating

You whisper that you love me I whisper it too

I know that you're body gone

Yet you are here

Your spirit is still with me –

My life may lie in the shackles of the end

My heart may stop its beating

Yet I know that as I lie

And look upon your face

I shall continue living

In the memory of you and me.

The End

How was that? Good? Bad? OK?
