Hello peoples, this is just something that I came up with on a whim. I was playing More Friends of Mineral Town, and Cliff left because I didn't give him the job. So I decided to write a song/poem about the main character and Cliff's relationship. It's a bit dramatic, so don't hate me or anything! Well, enjoy!
Tima to say goodbye
Cliff was gone...just like that. Sarah sat on the beach, looking out into the ocean, tracing hearts into the sand. Besides her there was a notebook and a pencil. She was writing a song...about them, it was near being finished, but she sat, song forgotten as she remembered them. She had to get over it, but she was having a very difficult time getting over it completely. Even the simplest things reminded her of them. Like when she went to church every sunday, there was always that heart etched into the seat next to her, with both of their names inscribed in the center.
Or things like the cherry tree's by the lake, they always brought up memories of when he picked that cherry blossom and stuck it into her hair, or that one time when she got stuck in the tree and he had to come up and rescue her. Or when she vsited the lake, it always remined her of when they used to go fishing early in the morning and how once he caught the Kappa, who let me tell you, he wasn't very happy to be stuck on some guys fishing hook.
She glanced at the paper and read the completed song, this is what it said.
After all the things I have said and done, I guess you could never forgive me.
That's when you decided we just weren't meant to be.
Before that time I thought a relationship like that could actually stay.
But my mind was too full of thoughts of you and me, to forever be that way.
So, why did you leave?
Why couldn't you stay?
Why didn't you tell me you were leaving yesterday?
When you held my hand, I didn't hear a word.
And right now i'm wishing it was your voice, that I could have heard.
I have many pictures of you, being glued in my mind.
But I know that wherever I search, you will never be there to find.
I have memories of us, that I couldn't bear to leave.
But I can't forget the past, that promised so much to you and me.
So, Why did you say you would always love me?
Why did you lie and say our love was the only thing you could ever see?
When you held me in your arms, you suddenly let me go.
Why didn't you just come over and properly let me know?
I'm wallowing in the past, my tears flooding to the ground.
And when I was crying, you never gave me a single sound.
When my heart was broke you just ignored all of my pain.
I guess my love was too much for your simple heart to take.
So, why do I cry, just because you decided to leave.
Why does my heart always decide to grieve?
When you sailed away, what were you thinking in you heart?
Why couldn't you stay, and we could begin from the start.
Now i'm sitting here, where you first met me.
Praying on the bench that you might come back and see.
These memories of us, can never ezcape my mind.
And my feelings for you I will never hide.
But now you are gone, and I have to face the truth.
It was like you said, this love wasn't meant to be shared between me and you.
So I have to deal without you now, and try to keep going on.
I know that what we shared, can never be replaced.
But you wanted to forget and I know I have to do the same.
She let a tear escape the corner of her eye. Sometimes it was so hard to forget him. but she had to for the both of them.
It was time to say goodbye. she ripped the paper out of her notebook and threw it up into the air. It landed into the water near the shore. Then it started to sink, bringing their special memories down with it. Like I said, it was about time I said goodbye.
