Short poem from Jyn's perspective. I do not own Star Wars or it's characters. I hope you enjoy :)
Death didn't scare her
Not like how it did for others
She lived dangerously
Carelessly, at times
With the reaper creeping around the corner
She wasn't scared of death
She used to be scared of what it could take from her
Her life?
No.
What was important to her
However, she lost that years ago
It wasn't like she had anything left
All she did was herself
And if that was all, so be it.
But that changed
Sometime between a rescue and infiltration
She had come to hold more when it came to the word important
It no longer included just her
Bodhi
Baze
Chirrut
K-2
Cassian
They became what is important to her
No longer was she alone
And no longer was she fearless in the face of death
She had something to lose
Someone, to lose.
And that made her afraid of death
Because it now held the power to destroy her
Rip a wound so unbearable
That it would stain her chest permanently.
Right now it plagued her thoughts
But she could not give it the luxury
For now there was a higher cause
She could no longer be selfish
She needed to push through
For what she considered important to her
She will overcome for their sakes
Jyn will not fear death
She will fight it
Until she no longer needs too
