Forgiven TifaxAerith

Why did you leave without saying goodbye?

You knew you were walking to Death's embrace!

There could have been another way to stop the madness.

But you never even gave me a chance.

You never left a note or a sign of goodbye.

My last memory of you was the haunted pain in your eyes.

Was this peace worth the price that you paid?

Was it so easy for you to leave me behind?

I never wanted to say goodbye.

But I knew that you'd try to force me to stay.

I knew in my heart there was no other way.

There was no other choice but to be the sacrifice.

I couldn't let you be in harm's way again.

My last memory was of you asleep in my arms.

When I look back, it was worth the price I paid.

But it left me broken hearted, to leave you so far behind.

I couldn't protect you from this shattered world.

You gave in so easily, and broke so sweetly.

It tore me open to see you so lifeless.

Everyday I wonder if I could of stopped you.

From giving up the fight, and leaving me behind.

But I can't find myself to be angry with you.

My ancient angel watching over me.

Can you forgive me for failing you in the end?

No one could protect me from our fallen world.

All my thoughts were of you as I fell so easily.

It brought me to tears to see you so broken inside.

Every night I pray I'll see you again.

That maybe you'll wait for me till we're together again.

I was never angry with you from the start.

My beautiful warrior gazing up to me.

All our mistakes we made have been forgiven.

I can see the flowers are growing again.

Maybe it's a sign that you're still with us.

Sometimes I can feel your presence beside me.

Even through the silence that surrounds me.

I feel so cold I can't feel the sun on my face.

I hide the pain behind this simple smile.

But I need to know before my demons consume me:

Even in the distance will you still be mine?

This world is beginning to heal again.

It makes me feel almost whole again.

I can still hear your voice within.

Even through the vague and fading memories.

I can feel the tears though I cannot cry.

I try to remember you'll be with me again someday.

I'll always be yours but I need to know before the time comes:

Will you forgive me for never saying goodbye?

Was it only a dream?

It felt so real, like she was there beside me.

I have to live my life for her sake I know.

But I wish I knew if she could hear me.

I wish I could have seen her one last time.

I wasn't meant to save her from the start.

But I forgive her for what she's done.

She'll always be mine, deep inside my heart.

It wasn't a dream.

But I know she could feel me so close to her.

I can't let go of her memory, no matter how vague.

I hear your words; I feel the same as well.

But you'll see me again when the time comes.

You were meant for me, and that's all I could have.

I can rest in peace, knowing she forgives me.

I'll always belong to her, till forever fades.

Okay this is definitely not the greatest so please don't flame me and what not. I did try my best and I can say I am little bit proud of it. Anyway this is kind of a back and forth thing. Tifa had a dream about confronting Aerith... and you get the idea. Plain texts is Tifa, italics are Aerith. I did try my best so leave reviews please I do appreciate them. Happy reading! :3
