Dedicated to Carrie Fisher. You *are* Princess Leia. :)
Author's note: Thanks to
the wonderful reviews of my ESB Han/Leia poem Destinies Collide, Forever
Entwined (thanks to everyone who took the time to review it, I appreciate
it!), I thought I'd work on more poetry about Star Wars' greatest couple.
Here is my first NJO work, a poem about Leia's feelings towards Han, after
Vector Prime and before their reconciliation in Balance Point. A poem of
Han's POV in Balance Point should be along shortly. :) Thanks to DantSolo
for beta-ing this for me. :)
One More Chance
by Bria
Tuesday, March 20, 2001
One more chance is all I
need
One more chance to make
things right
One more chance to mend
what has happened
Both to my husband and to
our marriage
When did the space between
us start to fall?
When did everything go all
wrong?
Sure, Chewie's death might
have been the catalyst
But it had to be something
deeper than that...
Was it all the times we were
separated from each other?
Or the restlessness of responsibility
I knew he sometimes felt?
It was all of that and none
of that, as odd as it may sound
But my husband needs help,
and whether he wants it or not, he's going to get it
Who was right and who was
wrong?
I can honestly say I no
longer care
I want my husband back and
I want him back now
Before our marriage is destroyed
One more chance is all I
ask
One more chance to put these
past few months behind us
One more chance get back
to what is important
Just one more chance...
that's all I ask
