Braska

Braska, dear friend

Please forgive me

For I failed you

As a Guardian

You probably tire of my complaining

About how I was too young

But, it is true!

I did not know enough to protect you…

Hn, ten years ago, yes, ten years…

It has been too long

Yes, I long to join you Braska, at the Farplane

But I still have a few more promises to keep

They are both for Jecht

Hah, you thought I did not care about him?

Well, I do

And a promise is a promise

Braska, you were so kind to me

I learned so much being your Guardian

And now, I laugh at your joke

Of the irony of our Journey

I actually realize what you meant

If you, myself, and Jecht

Defeated Sin…

Myself, an exiled warrior monk and Jecht from Zanarkand

Then there's you, Braska

You married an Al Bhed

No matter now, do not worry

Yuna is so beautiful…

She looks up to you, especially now

Your little girl is grown up

She has learned so much

And you know, she wants to be just like you

Yuna, she just, smiles

Almost like you used to

She's probably thinking about what she can do

For Spira, and make everyone happy

Braska, you had sacrificed yourself

For nothing; but it will be alright

I'm still alive, somewhat, and I'll do something

I Promise

A/N - 9/4/02 - This is the first of three poems I wrote while I was in school. Ahhh I was about to fall asleep at my desk from boredom. Fortunately I came up with three pretty darned good ideas! ^_^ BTW Apparently people are thinking that my poems are by Amberlee. They're NOT! I just happened to use the same title as one of her own stories…So don't think that I'm Amberlee under a different name. I'm really not! v_v Though I wish I was…
