Another re-upload and I also (still) don't own anything resembling the FFVIII except my stories and my imagination.

This is a poem is about the sad ending for my fic, "The way we were before" which can be found under FFgal. This is Squall thinking about how he misses Rinoa.

Gotta Close

Gotta close my eyes,

I don't want to see anymore,

because when they are open,

all I see is you.

Gotta close my eyes;

It's not helping much;

When I close them,

I still see you.

I closed my eyes,

but in my dreams I see you.

I closed them in my dreams,

but in my heart, I can still see you.

Why do you suddenly appear,

in places that I've armored?

Why are you always there,

in times when I shut myself out?

No matter how much I want to ignore,

no matter how much I want to forget,

no matter how much I want to turn away,

my eyes remain open;

my eyes can see inside of me,

and it knows that I love you.

NOTE: Although as much as I want to be, I am not much of a poem person. This is just a little something that I had to get out and not a life changing, type of poem that will change your views on the game or its characters. But I enjoyed writing it and that's all that matters!

YAY!
