Haunted
I remembered once,
But now I've forgot,
A family, a twin,
But now they are gone
-
Music's power
Manipulated by my playing.
Sent to do Seiryu's bidding,
To destroy the servants of his enemy.
-
The servants were not enemies of mine.
I stole their constellation,
Yet could not hurt them,
Not even for him, when the time came.
-
I drown, or try to,
My choice of escape,
Her face fleeting before my eyes,
Forgiving me as he, my brother, would not.
-
She came back to me;
I almost had her.
We would forget together,
But she belonged to another.
-
I would fight for her.
I would die for her; I almost succeeded.
My other half saved me from death;
I offered him all I could.
-
I gave the gift to forget;
We would be happy, I knew.
He accepted, or so I thought,
Drinking from the juice.
-
Then he returned my gift with a kiss
And said good-bye.
He loved another;
He loved the enemy of my love.
-
Cursed to be born what I was;
Cursed to love the opposite of my brother.
Part of me is torn away,
Yet I have become whole.
-
I do not really remember this tale,
Except in distant memory.
It is only a dream to haunt me
When I remember and then I forget.
