J-E-N-O-V-A

" I wanted to disappear... I wanted to die... But the Jenova inside me
wouldn't let me die..."

With lives untold, creating, destroying
With souls incarnate, playing, toying
Resigned to fate, resigned to being cursed
Watching the cells multiply and burst

" Stay back...! "
1 cell, 2 cells, 3 cells, 4
Give them much longer and there won't be me anymore

" I dream of him a lot lately..My dear, dear son.. "
I've given up resisting
Confined to existing
Left here forever
Living always, dying never

" I heard that he died 5 years ago..."
No, die I shall not
Even though this prison, my body, shall rot
Death I did defeat
Instead, I exist, complete

" But I see him in my dreams so often..."
I will remain in this hell
Forever ceasing my story to tell
When I am perfect
Pure human, with nothing left to resurrect

" And I know that physically, like myself, he cannot die so easily.."
Forever, was and still is
Spread out in eternity ...Forever I be
" Please tell me..."
