He was still awake. He couldn't fall asleep. It killed him. Why? God, why? He was a pilot goddamit! He didn't have time to fall in love, and this was
definately not the place! Why couldn't his heart understand that if his head could? He looked down beside him, and tried not to smile. He was Trowa
Barton, the quiet, shy, take control pilot. One of the best. Yet something so small and worthless could bring him crumbling to his knees. Yet was it that?
He let his mind drift away as he brushed away the hair that streamed around her face. "Morning star," he whispered, as the ship flew closer. "It's your
time to shine. Even though you don't know it, you're going to save he world, and everyone in it..."
"Last time I talked to you
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space"
"Do you ever wonder what it would be like to be up in outer space?" "Nah." "Why not?" She said, looking at him with those beautiful chocolate eyes.
"Because I'm happy where I am, I guess. I don't really like change." "Oh. I'm happy here too, but I've always wondered. I'll be up there someday, looking
at the stars from way closer. There's just something so pretty about them." "Yah, I guess."
Space. you wanted to be here. But what is there for you? Lonliness, heartache. It's not worth the stars, for they too, eventually fade away, like
your ever open heart. Fade into the dimness, far away from the moon and the sky. Gone, every last breath, until, alas, there is nothing left for you.
We laid underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling brave
I watched the red orange glow
I watched you float away
"You know, you don't always have to be so serious." "I have nothing else to be." She looked at him like he was crazy. "You can be anything you want to
be, as long as you can dream. You're my friend." "I'm not that brave." She laughed. "Of course you are. You're the bravest person I know.
You've been alone. That's the hardest thing to do, you know. I'm scared of being alone." "You shouldn't be. I'll always be there for you." "Thankyou.
There must be something your scared of." The boy turned over on his side. "Life." He said. She nodded. "It can be so big and scary sometimes. But I
guess if you're with the people you love, it's not that bad." He smiled. "Thanks Morning Star."...
"Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
You've gone to save your tired soul
You've gone to save our lives"
He turned back to Kita, looking at the beautiful woman who lay at his side. There's nothing you wanted to live for, so why do you do it? Why do you
keep on living like everything's okay? You don't care about yourself. You want to go along with this stupid plan so that everyone else can...everyone
else can...live. Why is that? Why do you breathe?
I turned on the radio
To find you on satellite
I'm waiting for this sky to fall
I'm waiting for a sign
All we are
Is all so far
I remember all the painful days waiting. All the people telling me I couldn't. I can't help but think you feel the same way. Am I right? I waited every
second of my life waiting for a sign that you were alive, a sign for me to set you free. Now...now...I...I...wish you were...dead. I don't want you to
feel. I don't want you to know or see what I've become...I...I...wish you were dead.
"You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see"
Why do I see you? Why are you here?
"I know you're out there
Somewhere out there"
Why are you in my arms? Why are you here?
"You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity"
Don't ever go away...Don't stumble...get up. Be brave, for me. For me...
"I know you're out there
Somewhere out there"
Goddamnit! Why are you here? Why are you...here...so close to me, yet you have no clue how far away you seem? Why do I live? Why do I feel?
"Hope you remember me
When you're home sick
and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste"
"This is going to be so cool! I've been waiting for a while for this. You're going to love this!" She smiled. The world changed with her smile. It seemed
better, even perfect, for those two seconds. "C'mon, let's go." "Where are we going?" I had asked. "Does it matter?" "No." She held my hand. "You're
dad will be upset. We better go," "No. Please, just let's stay for a while. I...I don't want to go home. I want to stay here with you." "Why? Because I
feel safe with you. And, besides," she flashed another huge smile. "My dad will kill me when he sees what I did to my hair." she laughed. She grabbed
his hand. "Just a little bit farther. We're almost there, I promise." We had climbed up for a while, then like she said, we got there. The sun was just
setting. The shades matched the colour of her hair. Why she wanted to dye her hair violet, he'd never know. But, he didn't care. "Isn't it pretty?"
"Yup. Hey, why'd you bring me here Morning Star?" She laughed. "Why do you call me morning star?" "Because. The stars that are there in the morning,
there the most pretty, shining with brilliance, you know. They're strong to last all the way through the night. Nature's gift." "Is that what I am to you?"
she asked, blushing, eyes diverting to the floor. "I guess. You're whatever you want to be. You've always been." She smiled. "So why was it you brang
me here?" "Because this is my favourite place. I like to come here and watch the sunset." He laughed. "And your dad allows you to?" "NO! He thinks I'm
out with you, I guess. Because I spend so much time with you I guess." "You don't have to, you know, it's nice of you, but..." "I want to." She got
closer to him. "I want to spend the rest of my life with you, you know. It's just practice I guess." He smiled and kissed her. It was their first kiss...
"I know you'll come back someday
On a bed of nails I'll wait
I'm praying that you don't burn out
Or fade away
All we are
Is all so far"
I waited so long for you. You have no idea. I don't want you to fade away. I want you to stay here, even though I know you can't. I let you go once.
I won't let you go again. I promise...I promise. Though I feel I'll have to before this is over. I don't ever want to see you cry again, Kita.
"You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there"
"I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving without him daddy! Why are you doing this? why are you so mean! He has to come! Daddy listen!" "Look, there's no
time! we've got to get out of here now! Get in this car!" "No daddy! I'm not going without him." She wouldn't budge, so he pushed her out the door. I
was running up the steps at the exact same time, and I caught her before she fell. "I don't want to go! i don't want to go! Daddy, why can't he come
too?" "He just can't. Come on, there's no time." Her father never told her why, but she figured out soon enough from the gossip of others. "He can't."
"Why not?!" "You must understand, it's for his own good, love. He has to stay behind." She clung to him. Even though she was only 8, she knew she'd
never see him again. "I don't want to go," she said over and over as she clung to him. "You're my best friend. Don't let him take me." He let go, a single
tear drew down his face. "Your dad knows whats best for you Morning star. Let go. I want you to be safe. It's a bad idea to stay here. Anyways, I'm
only a stupid orphan who has no friends or family beside you. I don't know why you'd want to stay with me." She burst into tears, and through shaking
fists, she slapped him. "Don't ever say that! you don't understand! You don't..." "Look, I'll be back for you. I'll come and get you later, when everything's
okay. I promise. But you have to go." She nodded. "But I'm scared. You..." "Look, as long as you remember me, I'll be okay." She turned to leave.
"Wait, here, have this." she said, handing him a small charmed bracelet. It was worn and torn, but to him, it was as if it had been made of the finest
jewels. She hugged him one last time, and then, without looking back, she left him standing on the dusty road. All by himself right back where he started
from. She didn't look back.Didn't look back...Or was it she did, but he couldn't tell, because of the river of tears streaming from his emerald green eyes.
"You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see
I know you're out there
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there
You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see
I know you're out there"
You're here with me now...right here beside me...
"Somewhere out there
You're falling out of reach
Slipping through my fingers, like the sands of time. Why am I remembering?
Defying gravity
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there
You're falling back to me
The promise I made? Why do I still know? Is it only a reflection?
I know
I know
You're falling out of reach
I know...
Why after all the training I've been through...why am I...I...so weak...
So weak...crumbling...I'm nothing.
Nothing but dust...crumbling away at the feet of something I could never have.
Why is life so cruel. Why, then if I can't have her, is she here?
Why have I changed. I never cared for anything, not even my life before now.
I'm Nothing but dust...crumbling away at the feet of something I could never have.
