Authors Note: Just another Baten Kaitos inspired poem. It's first-person Spirit perspective. The content is sort of based on scattered parts throughout the whole game, along with my own ideas. Not sure how else to describe it. Either way hope you enjoy it.
Thanks goes out to lyudesshadow for being my first reviewer person, it made me feel giddy all day.
Disclaimer: Namco owns Baten Kaitos, I only own the poem.
"Until We Meet Again"
Inspired by Baten Kaitos Origins
To my family
I cannot count the times the that I have blamed myself
For your deaths
There was so much I could have done
To prevent this from happening
I could have argued against the deal
We made for power
I knew it just didn't feel right
But I was afraid to do so
Besides you all said it would be fine
So I caved and said yes
After our battle the reality of what we did destroyed our will to go on
The enemy was stronger then we anticipated
And one by one you were killed
I was paralyzed by my own fear to do anything
Except watch
Then I was killed last maybe it was a sympathy kill
For being the youngest I knew not
By a twist of fate I was given another chance of life
Although it wasn't my life, I was sharing a life with another
I did not know how long it was since our battle
Foolishly I tried to go back in time
But what was done could not be erased
From my final attempt at the impossible
I made an oath to myself
That was to live this shared life to the fullest
For all our sakes
A smile managed to cross over my face
Because I knew that no matter what happened
I would see you all again
Even though it took me so long to remember that
With that said I felt your presence around me
And knew that everything would be alright
I was also aware that you would wait for me until the end of time
So that we would be together as a family once more
