Silena's POV
I walked onto stage and sat down at the piano.
Flashback...
"Oh my gods! Charlie! You built me a piano!"
"Well you told me how much you liked playing, so along came the piano."
"I love it!"
End of flashback...
I placed my fingers on the keys and started playing.
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, leave you blind
My love, you have found peace
You were searching for release
You gave it all into the call
You took a chance and
You took the fall for us
You came thoughtfully
Loved me faithfully
You taught me honor
You did it for me
Tonight you will sleep for good
You will wait for me, my love
Now I am strong, you gave me all
You gave all you had
And now I am home
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, leave you blind
My love, look what you can do
I am mending, I'll be with you
You took my hand and added a plan
You gave me your heart
I asked you to dance with me
You loved honestly
Did what you could release
Ah, ooh
I know you're pleased to go
I won't relieve this love
Now I am strong, you gave me all
You gave all you had
And now I am home
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, I'll be with you
I took my finger off the keys and stood up, turned toward the crowd and bowed. All I heard after I bowed was cheering and guys screaming " I LOVE YOU SILENA!" I was so surprised. I had only practiced the song once and yet I got the most wonderful applause. But that didn't change why I picked the song.
I suddenly realized I was balling my eyes out. I had no idea how much I missed Charlie. He died for the sake of me and the camp. He was a true hero and I'm proud of him for that. I took the microphone from Chiron and said " Could we all have a moment of silence to remember our hero, Charles Beckondorf." Chiron nodded in approval.
After the twenty seconds of silence Chiron annouced " Up next for our karakoke competion is Connor Stoll and Pollux singing Let It Rock by Kevin Rudolf f.t Lil Wayne."
