Summery: A poem on how Amidala finds out about Darth Vader and the past.

Holding back the one fear of mine,

I struggle just to understand this rhyme.

I trusted him to be true

And he vowed once he said I do.

Promising to be with me till the end,

Only did I know that he would be the first to bend.

Crying each night for his skin on mine,

Wishing I didn't let him go at that time.

Why did I let him go to be fighting in war,

When I knew he was harassed under a pressure for more.

I should have known,

Should have seen

That he wouldn't make it,

And this would be all a dream.

Obi-Wan saw his ship explode before his eyes

And for a moment I saw his last breath in my eyes.

My vision blurred

Scaring me

But then I saw Anakin screaming.

A pain shot through out my soul.

Collapsing to the ground I couldn't take it anymore.

My entire body filled with shock

I couldn't believe all

Now I lay here in a ball

I feel the twins kicking inside of me

They too felt the pain of their daddy

Why did I let him go?

We all loved him so

Never thought the ship would explode

Now living in a time of fear

As a new enemy lurks near

Hunting for our children each night

Pursuing me to give up on this fight

I didn't believe it

But it's true

That even demon

Is really you.
