TFA Sentinel Prime/Elita-1

A pairing that can be seen many ways. This is how I see it.


When I was young,

I was better;

I was tolerant;

I was understanding.

I was bright;

I was outgoing;

I had the workings

To go out of bounds.

But I had my love,

My femmefriend,

Who loved me with all her spark;

Who I loved back.

She supported me

Through my training;

She was there to help me

When I was down.

I was cheerful with her,

I was happy with her,

I envisioned living a life with her,

For she was the one.

But then I lost her,

And I lost it all;

Transformed by grief

Into someone else.

I closed myself off,

Hiding my heartbreak;

Channeling the insecurity

Into my behavior.

I became intolerant,

I became vain.

I even blamed a friend

For losing her.

His dream was lost

Because of me,

Yet I had no regret,

No remorse for blaming him.

My ego grew,

And so did my intolerance;

Crushing the dreams

Of many young hopefuls.

I rose up high,

Higher than I ever imagined,

I soon desired more,

More of this power.

But then I saw her,

Not dead,

But different,

A shadow of what I remembered.

I rejected her,

Calling her a freak,

saying she should rot

inside The Pit.

But since that time,

I have changed.

I am better,

Like I was before.

I lead Cybertron,

And everyone respects me,

Everyone thinks

I have it made.

But I am not perfect;

I have something missing,

A special something about which

Only my Second knows.

I still long for her,

I still want to hold her,

To dance in her arms

Like the times of past.

But she is gone;

Forever lost.

Hiding somewhere

I'll never find her.

I wish I'd done different;

Accepting her change,

And giving her

A chance to return.

But I shunned her,

Calling her a freak;

And so she is gone,

Gone from my life.

Everyone thinks I have it made,

But inside, I am empty.

For I lost my love,

And will never have her again.
