A/N: Finally, some MOTHER 3! I really love this game, especially how it manages to be so funny yet so sad at the same time. And I sure love Lucas. This is a Lucas inspired poem.

I'd suggest listening to "Gentle Rain" or "Memory of Life" while you read this.

I do not own MOTHER 3. If I did, it wouldn't be nearly as good.

The rain is gentle and light

As it and tears obscure my sight

I stand in front of your grave

Thinking of the sacrifice you gave

As you pushed us

I gave you all of my trust

Looking up one last time I see

Your sweet face smiling at me

And before we are swept away

unknowing if we'd see the day

You suffer from the final attack

And my mind fades to black.

When we awake, we take a deep breath

And are then informed of your death

I wasn't surprised, tell you the truth

To figure that out doesn't take a sleuth

But it sure hit home

The weapon that killed you is shown

Claus looks in disbelief

I am consumed with grief

I huddle under a blanket with my twin

Thinking of how things might have been

If we had not been there

Never received that scare

That piercing roar

I dream no more

Nightmares plague my sleep

Until I awake and weep

Dreaming of that day

When you were taken away

And he went to avenge you

I lost him too.

I told you not to go

Father searches high and low

Because you did not listen

As I beg you, my tears glisten

You tell me not to follow

My heart is empty and hollow

You say you will return

This does not ease my concern

I watch you walk away

Hoping I'd see you the next day

But you never came back

I cannot accept this fact

They tell me to move on

You are long gone

But they never found your remains

Or the blood that runs through your veins

I know I'll see you again

Though I do not know when

The house is quiet without you

I wonder where you have gone off to

Or if you miss me

I miss you, you see

You are my twin

always graced with a grin

But as you left for the final time

the smile that used to shine

Is no longer there

It's filled with despair

Just like my soul

Where you left a gaping hole.

Three years have come and gone

I know I am not wrong

I will never believe you have died

They tried to persuade me, they tried

Until there is a sign

To crush this hope of mine

I will wait for you

And forever if I have to

You promised to come back

And trust, I do not lack

Until then I wait in pained tranquility

Remaining in stability

It's painful to be alone

Left on my own

But I have faith

That if I wait

You will come home

Your mischievous smile shown

Telling me stories, you insist

For you are the brother I missed.
