This takes place during the NJO series…. Jaina's writing about all that she's lost…. (Thanks to Julie-Sis for making me post it :P )

I Remember

Watching everyone I know be swept away

And feeling the ground beneath my feet

Shatter into shards of glass

And I can still see

The tears I never thought I'd cry

Draw canyons on my dirt-streaked face

Now faces only memories

Love now sent only to heaven

And all I have lost

Consumes me in a darkness

A scream, a cry, I try my best to keep @ bay

And all that is left

Is the weakened soul I now call my own

And the bare arm I reach out to the light

That swims past my fingertips, evades my grasp

And my salty tears

My own unexpected weakness,

Is drowning me in a river of sorrow

But there is no one left to wipe my eyes

No heart to comfort mine

And I slowly die

Of the death of those who died for me

And the pain of their blood shed for mine

My fate is sealed

And my life now darkness

Only dwelling in shadows

I am jailed by my loneliness

For now my only friends

Are my own tarnished teardrops
