A/N: This is a series of poems written in different POV's, musicalverse look at the chapter titles for which acts and who POV but that should usually be obvious if you know the musical well.

The first time I saw her, I was at a loss for words.

She had a glow to her,

Like the Emerald City.

She wore a scowl, Raven hair pulled into a long braid.

She walked with her head down.

Books in hand, she was ahead of her class.

They didn't get her, she was their joke.

She danced awkwardly, but gracefully as well.

They laughed.

I was intrigued.

Pink made her eyes sparkle.

'Galindafied'

She didn't need it though, her beauty stood alone.

The creature was helpless, She acted fast.

I followed.

'What is this feeling?' I asked, I wasn't sure.

Love, perhaps.

She looked right through my façade; to her I was an open book.

She grabbed my hand, Green silk.

I fled, I was a coward.

I heard my name but I didn't go back.

I took me a while to decide.

Poppies.

I saw her there, looking unsure.

I had been thinking, She knew.

A name change, no difference to me.

I wished her luck.

Again I ran.

I had hoped to see her again, how I was wrong.

Shattered remains of a bubbly girl, worried about her best friend.

I was there, her shoulder to cry on.

We grew apart, I could only think of her.

Captain of the Guard? A Joke.

I missed her like crazy.

A hollow shell of a man in this city of Emeralds.
