I do not own the Sarah McLaughlan song, "I Will Remember You" or Fruits
Basket (I only wish I could own Kyou... ~devil grin~)
I stood in the gentle breeze, watching you walk away. You had no idea about anything as the wind tousled your hair. You would never remember about how we found your tired body in the forest... but I would.
***
I will remember you... will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, Weep not for the memories...
***
Of course you wouldn't weep for the memories. They had all been let go... You had let them slip through your fingers one by one as I held onto your hand so tightly. A tear ran down my face as I watched you walk down the dirt path into the forest.
***
Remember the good times that we had? I let them slip away from us when things got bad... How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun, wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one.
***
I still remember how that day you had told me not to worry for you. You were so strong for everyone as we cried in silence. As he put his hand to your forehead, you just smiled and told me to remember my promise to you. I will always remember that promise.
You fell to the ground softly, the blinding force knocking you down. Your hair scattered on the floor, falling softly across your face. The sunlight streaming through the open window fell across the smile still softly plastered on your face. It was like we were meeting for the first time again. Another tear fell from my cheek as your back became a silhouette against the steadily darkening orange sky. I couldn't understand how someone could love that much. I stood staring at where you were on the road until it was dark, and headed inside.
***
I will remember you, but will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, weep not for the memories.
***
I stared at the stars burning themselves out in the sky, thinking of everything we had shared. How your hand, soft and warm, had brought so much joy upon this household.
***
I'm so tired, but I can't sleep, standin on the edge of something much too deep. Its funny how we hear so much but cannot say a word, we are screaming inside, but we can't be heard.
***
I should have told you. I should have always told you the feeling eating me away inside. Why couldn't I have uttered those now useless words? 'I love you.' That isn't so hard. That is what my heart said, but my mind told me that I could never do that. I love you.
***
I will remember you, but will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, weep not for the memories.
***
I remember that promise well, I thought as I sat in my bed, laying awake in the moonlight. "If I get my memory erased, please become my friend again!" How could I do that now...
***
I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose, clinging to a past that doesn't let me chose. Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night, you gave me everything you had, you gave your life.
***
Still I thought of the love bursting its way through my heart, tearing a path towards you through my soul. I must find a way to tell you. You rescued us all from the darkness that engulfed us before. Your smile brought light upon our family.
***
I will remember you, but will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by, weep not for the memories.
*** I wouldn't cry. I wouldn't be sad that you would remember nothing of strawberries or lakes, of mice and cats. I wouldn't be sad. I couldn't cry anymore, I thought to myself as I listened to him cry on the roof, as I listened to the others silent sadness as he wrote. You wouldn't remember us, but we would always remember you.
