Hello everyone this is my first crack at a song fic. I am not even
sure if this is how you do one, but at least I tried! Some of the text has
inserts from "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence, but the body is from a song
called "Once" from the Brotherhood of the Wolf soundtrack aka [La Pacte Des
Loups]. If you have the song please play it while you read (it would be
understood better. Plus the song is great). I have also left some things
for you make your own conclusion on, but if you are confused about
something or just want to comment email me at babyb26@hotmail.com. Before I
forget, this fic is not graphic for those who may want to know. I hope you
enjoy my fic. Good reading.

Once

The young woman stood on the high cliff that looked out upon the world
around her. In the dark of night she watched the stars that lit the sky
dance, then she remembered that they were the same stars that her beloved
was seeing somewhere on a distant shore or perhaps now he was one with the
sky and earth. As she stood remembrance washed over her. Memories of a love
she once knew.
From across the ocean he had come to her lush green forest in search of
wealth and honor. That of which he did not find, but he had found her, the
woman he had promised to love forever. Now silence filled the air around as
her tale and memories form long ago unraveled.
*****************************
Once there were oceans
Endless emerald forest
Filled with sounds of magic
Once so long ago
*****************************
Once she thought, she had understood the world around her and the things
that would guild her role in life. In life she was to take the befitting
role of the great chefs daughter. A role that ment being given to a man she
did not love. In this, her great dream of a love of her choosing was
crushed. With hopes crushed and her sprit sleeping somewhere cold, she
never dreamt that he would save her from the darkness that shrouded her
life. The woman opened her hand and slowly glanced down at the compass her
lover had given her, then she thought, if only we knew so much would be
lost.
***************************************
Once I was jaded
thought I knew a few
understood so little
had so much to lose
**************************************
On his journey to her land he found her and she knew she had found the
path. A path that she would fallow for the rest of her life or for however
long she could last without him. She remembered back to the first time she
faced him, in the middle of the river his hair sparking like the sun and
the look he held within his blue eyes that made her heart stop. His gaze
had awakened the broken part of her soul and as she stood she knew what she
was without, him. With him, she had found the missing part of her heart.
She had broken the façade that had held his life in a cold grasp, for he
was once frozen without her love and to him she saved him from a life among
the dead.
*************************************************
Once on a journey
Through the streams and mountains
I stumbled on the road that
Brought me close to you
I will fallow you
I will fallow you
Even as winter is coming
******************************************************
Her thoughts drifted back towards the night she had given herself to him.
She remembered how moonlight made their skin glow, one so pale that it
mimicked the moon and the other a bright copper that had blazed to red. His
gentleness had astounded her as he became one with her. That night he had
guided her into ecstasy and her life forever changed. As she lay in his
arms he caressed her cheek and told her that, "all of my I life can not
believe I could not see and now that your here with me I see love, your
love and now I am whole." It was then that she had known that their love
was right and that they would love each forever. As she look back at her
memories she pondered how either of could have known that their night would
end in death and that they would be separated by events that stemmed form
that night. Now he was gone forever.
**************************************************************
Once in the forest
(You) told me that you loved me
from that moment changed me
something said just once
words in a diary
faded upon the pages
people gone forever
shadows on a wall
**********************************************
Now that he was gone, she had bid her blood to run and to became undone
from the bonds that held her to life. Now she remembered the time they
spent together, of how his eyes shined in the summer day as his hand tucked
her raven locks behind her ears after it had flown in her face as the soft
wind blew. She drifted now to how his lips tasted like the essence of home
when he kissed her, and finally how they ignited a burning passion that
could only be found in each other.
***********************************************
Still I remember
Love we had in summer
Sunlight on your fingers
Secrets in the snow
*********************************************************************
The woman eyes closed as her thoughts come upon the their last moment. He
had told her that he would be with her forever no matter what lay in her
life and that his heart and sprit was with her. On his last kiss to her he
whispered, "I will fallow you." With tears falling down her face, she
watched him leave and wind carried his last words, "you will stay with me
forever and always."
**********************************************************************
I will follow you
I will follow you
All though the night I will fallow
******************************************************************
From her cliff, the woman felt the breeze come in from the ocean, as it
pressed against her body she felt it enveloped her like the arms she once
knew and in it she heard, "stay with me forever now, always, and once." Her
reply was, "yes I will stay with you now, always, once, and forever, she
gently closed her eyes and there was darkness.
*******************************************************************
Once on the ocean
Thought I heard you whisper
stay with me forever, now, always, once.
