A letter, for myself and for Roxas

When did you change? Why did you change? Roxas please. You were so beautiful then. You're hair, it's darker. You're not yourself at all. It's a familiar face I'm seeing, but I know it's not the you I knew. You're different now. When did all this happen? Did it happen because I wasn't there enough for you? If that why you left me? And it wasn't just me you left behind. It was yourself too.

Those days and nights we spent together I still remember. That night when we stayed up to watch the anime you liked. I didn't care much for it then so I didn't really pay much attention, but as long as you were having fun I was fine. Before you actually went to bed, you started to get tired and you laid your head on my shoulder. I didn't realize it then, but I did later that I might have pushed you away a little then when I moved to put my arm in a better place, you might have miss read that and thought I was uncomfortable.

You can claim I didn't really know you, but how couldn't I? The entire Organization started to think we were dating because we were so close. I would come up and put my arms around you to see what you were reading. Your favorite song was Demolition Lovers by My Chemical Romance. Favorite anime was Death Note. Favorite characters: L, BB, and Mello. You didn't like Xemnas very much either. I could go on and on like this but it would be useless. You aren't coming back to me. Instead you'd rather hang out with your new friends.

What do you see in him and her? At least Xion was a Nobody. First I lost you to Xion and now them. I saw you for the first time the other day; I didn't realize it was you till I got a closer look. Your beautiful soft blond hair, it's dark. You're dressing differently, and your attitude has changed dramatically too. Do I even know you anymore? Whatever. It's not like you're going to ever read this anyway. Go on with your life and I'll try to go on with mine. Maybe someday, time will change me like it changed you. But for now, I'm stuck with who you made me to be.

Hope you're enjoying your new life on Destiny Islands.

Your Former Best Friend,

Axel, Number VIII
