Mistaken Love

(Quistus on how she thought she loved Squall.)

I was always there for you,

Even from the begining in the orphanage.

When I was the oldest,

And the bossiest.

I looked out for you,

I tried to replace Ellone.

Then we all left for the garden,

I was older.

More disciplined,

And became your teacher.

Then I looked out for you again.

Because she never came back.

All that time trying to replace her.

I thought that I was doing it because I cared for you,

Which I did.

I thought that I was doing it because I loved you,

Which I really did not.

I have mistakenly loved you.

I thought my feelings were stronger than they were.

That they meant more than they really did.

That they were more personal then they should be.

Then she came,

And stole the heart you showed to no one,

Not even her.

I saw what I had thought I had wanted all that time,

And realized that I didn't,

Not at all (no offense or anything).

All that time I just cared for you like a big sister,

And I dont want anything more.

Sometimes when the one we want to care for us finds someone else,

It just strengthens our resolve and love for that person,

Through jealousy.

But this time it just proved to me that I didn't want it at all.

I will still look out for you,

But as a friend and big sister,

Rather than a woman wishing to be a girlfriend.

Because that is what I actually want.

This could have been serious if it wasn't for the comment in the brakets. Sorry to anyone that that spoiled it for them. But it just made sence to me.
