That's Not Me
…
I'm trapped.
Chained.
I wasn't supposed to be in the light.
The darkness is calling me…
I wish the light would let me go.
The dark has tried to retake me many times. The light always stopped it.
Why did it have to send Kairi to the Destiny Islands? I would he in my rightful place if not for her. She entered my heart without my permission.
It's waiting for me. I know it is!
I keep plastering this smile on my face, hiding my true emotions…
A laugh to cover my sobs, a grin to hide my frowns. A sigh to hide my groans, a game to hide my pain.
Constantly trapped in a tug-of-war.
Get Ventus, this piece of pure light, out of my head! Just another link in the chains of light…
My jail guards, the other Keyblade wielders. Riku had the right idea, I'm not afraid of the darkness, either.
Those aren't my words, coming out of my mouth, I wasn't trying to say that…
Someone, save me…
So much pain, pent up, years of it…
Don't hold me, don't touch me! Leave me alone!
What lies beyond this morning is day. They say the light is good, but what does the sun do? It burns you.
Regardless of warnings? They're always for a good reason.
Because I've been warned, and the future terrifies me.
My heart is a battleground, between the forces of dark and light.
Just let me go…
I was the one that was supposed to fall into darkness, not Riku…
Riku's sword… it looks like the Keyblade that man showed me years ago, Vanitas… the eyes, the red and black…
It was supposed to be mine.
I've been warned, and the future terrifies me.
…
Wow, I never expected something like this to come out of me… Oof. Especially if you put yourself in Sora's place. Anyone recognize the song lyrics? Sorry to RB followers.
This has a mention of another story of mine, A Little Bit Of Light, where Vanitas meets little Sora. The end might make a bit more sense if you read it.
Review please!
