Meh... I had to get something out there. This thing goes along with my other fic, my big FMA one... it'll actually be re-titled "Carry Me Home" as well, and reorganized into something that makes more sense... also, I've decided to refrain from posting that until it's more or less finished, so that I don't run into the same problems again.
This poem will show up too... but much later.
Carry Me Home
When my strength is worn out
And our mission's complete
When the light turns to dark
And I can no longer see
When your voice fades away
And I'm left all alone
When my world is gone
And I can no further go
When I make good on my promise
Though you couldn't do the same
I have never forgotten
As if it were yesterday
Back when you reached for me
But I turned away
And when I called for you
But you never came
When I see you again
And you look at me
You'll not make a move
And I'll not try to speak
When you come without calling
And I do the same
When you smile proudly
And we dash tears away
You promised to be there
And I promise too
You gave all you could
And I'll give the rest soon
When I close my eyes
And you're there, sure as stone
You'll hold me once more
And carry me home.
I will write a gift fic for anyone who can accurately guess the main character of this poem! I am confidant that nobody will get it right, so I may give a consolation prize if you get reeeeeally close.
Although many people will probably get very close... if you review... (points)
