While you were Sleeping disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing


A/N: I'm sorry peoples... I didn't mean this to be so angsty. I just saw the title somewhere on the net and my muses attacked it.... It's Duo speaking to Hilde in my mind, though there's no real reason it has to be that way. Send all comments to neekabe@canoemail.com


While You were Sleeping

While you were sleeping the darkenss crept up again... Again I was cosumed by the grief and pain.

While you were sleeping I remembered those who had died because of me. I thought of their loved ones who would never be able to hold them again.

While you were sleeping, I wondered why I had the right to deny those people their lives. My cause was no more just than theirs was, how do I know that I was fighting for the right thing?

While you were sleeping I imaginied what life would be like without me. I dreamed of what this world would be like if there was no one to fight against OZ.... and it wasn't really so bad.

While you were sleeping, I cried in the dark, wishing I had never existed, wishing that someone would just hold me, make the pain go away.

While you were sleeping... It was so easy to become who I had once been, before peace, before love, before you. I lived as, am now, a Bringer of Death, the antithesis of life.

And now, I am allowed to rest, to sleep, to escape the pain. I am finally allowed to leave this hellish world behind... while you were sleeping.
