Chapter 5; Meryl.
Before I go any further with this fic, I'll drop in a little chapter which I think is quite relevant to the overall story. So far it's been through the views of Liquid Snake and Solid Snake and nothing from Meryl. Three views would be difficult to manage and would be difficult for you, the reader, to follow. But here's my chapter with Meryl. Well kind of. I'll explain. In MGS there was a song that played at the end credits called The Best Is Yet To Come. On hearing it I pretty much fell in love with it. Then when I eventually got the CD and the English translation for the song loved it even more when I could finally understand the song. While the song carries the anti-war message I also thought that the questions asked in it sounded like something Meryl would ask Snake. So as you read the lyrics I borrowed, try and bear that in mind and see what I'm trying to get at.
These lyrics were written by Rika Muranaka and are not mine.
Do you remember the time
when little things made you happy?
Do you remember the time
when simple things made you smile?
Life can be wonderful
if you let it be.
Life can be simple
if you try.
Whatever happened to those days?
Whatever happened to those nights?
Do you remember the time
when little things made you sad?
Do you remember the time
when simple things made you cry?
Is it just me
or
is it just us
feeling lost in the world?
Why do we have hurt each other?
Why do we have to shed tears?
Life can be beautiful
if you try.
Life can be joyful
if we try.
Tell me
I'm not alone.
Tell me
we are not alone in this world
fighting against the wind.
Do you remember the time
when simple things made you happy?
Do you remember the time
when little things made you laugh?
You know
life can be simple.
You know
life is simple.
Because
best thing in life is yet to come.
Because...
best is yet to come.
