Hello, guys! So the song that inspired this chapter actually isn't a song at all. It was a poem Lana Del Rey read over soft music. So I decided to write my own poem! I haven't written poem in years (since high school, to be exact), so I apologize ahead of time if this chapter is disappointing. I promise that the next chapter will be a lot longer than this!
In case you're wondering, the poem is told from Chrom's point of view.
I own nothing related to Fire Emblem Awakening.
Anyways, please read & enjoy! :D
A future lost,
And a future gone.
Where dying is the biggest cost
In a place where the sun hasn't shone.
Children are without a parent,
And forced to fight too young.
That has become apparent
By the sword Lucina's swung.
The tales she has told
Are so hard to hear.
And if I may be bold,
I can also feel her fear.
But I will not falter,
For there's too much at stake;
An entire future to alter.
We Shepherds have what it will take!
We shall face Grima's wrath,
And destroy the fell beast.
Once we've reached the end of this path,
Than this hell will cease.
When it's all said and done,
The future will be sound
For every daughter and son
With us on the battleground.
Yet I have one wish still:
To take back all their pain
For every bad memory that carries more than a chill,
And that will stay with them like a permanent stain.
The final fight will be tough,
And it's hard to see how long it'll last.
But despite all that will be rough,
We shall change the future past.
There ya go! I hope you all enjoyed it. :)
Review Responses:
MahNati: I freaking LOVE Basilio & Flavia's rivalry! It's so funny to read. Their supports just prove my point. It's beyond amusing in my opinion. Want me to write them more, eh? Hmm...I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for planting the idea in my head! I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter! :)
Please review, and don't forget to stay tuned for chapter 9! :D
