A Piece Of Me: An TifaxAerith Poem
When I gazed into your emerald eyes I knew you were the one for me.
But now that I look back there's nothing left but painful memories.
I chose to live in the present rather than the forgotten past.
Still I at times I feel so weary, sad and alone.
It's as if you took a piece of me when you fell to Death's silver blade.
Sometimes I wander to the place you loved best.
With the sweet smelling flowers and the warm sun high above.
I swear I can see your face sometimes smiling up at me.
Sometimes your gentle voice lulls through my mind.
But I know that it's only another lost memory.
I have the children to protect and care for, just like you would.
He still needs me to bring him back from the past.
They need me to be there when there's danger ahead.
But I wish they knew what I wanted at times.
Even if it's the one thing I can never have again:
Your delicate arms wrapped around my waist.
My lips placing soft kisses along your flesh.
Those emerald eyes looking into mine.
The words "I love you" dancing across your lips.
Our love that ended too soon, but still aches within my heart.
I can't change the things that altered the future.
Or keep wondering what could have happened.
I can only forgive and move on once again.
But I can't go back to who I used to be.
Because I'll never be the same without you.
I choose to stay with them because that's what you'd want me to do.
Dilly dally, Shilly shally is what you would say.
But still I feel empty and cold at times like these.
You took a piece of me the day you met your grave.
And I'll never get it back till I'm in your arms again.
I was feeling sad when I wrote this and I guess partially thinking of someone. I love this pairing though and I think it's sad and sweet at the same time. Anyway I just listened to one of my favorite groups "Plumb" and just played with the words. It's kind of like "Bittersweet Goodbye" but from Tifa's point of view to Aerith. Anyway do leave a review but no flames please. Enjoy everyone.
