Okay, I have decided to type an Epilogue for "Waiting to be With You." Why? Well, I need to type something. I am going crazy just figuring out story ideas. Second, I have to update this story because I posted the last chapter two days before Christmas and nobody saw it. So, I'm giving you all more stuff.
I would like to take this time and thank everybody who has reviewed me from a certain point;
Treasured Memories-Kairi099 (x4), Zelphie, Heartless Kairi, Devil's Whore, Aika Ishtar, baka coconut, and JillyBean3
Operation: Mistletoe- Tashua's Soul, Kairi099, RainWarriorPrincess, and Elle King.
Waiting to be With You- Kairi 099 (x2), Zelphie (x2), and baka coconut.
Simbelmynë (Lord of the Rings)- Yamitano. ElvenRanger13, and Kaya-Marlowe.
When I added up these (including the x's) I came up with... about 22 reviews. So, added with my other LOTR story (Elven Angel- 4 reviews) and my Rockman/Megaman stories (Lullaby in Blue- 6 reviews) and Unwanted Paradise- 1 review)... I have an estimated total of about... 33 reviews. Wow... I hope I get to 50 soon!
This is a poem, typed while listening to Dearly Beloved on the K.H. soundtrack. This is the title. I do not own Kingdom Hearts or the title of this poem. They both belong to Squaresoft and Disney.
This is Riku's poem, like in Treasured Memories we had Sora's poem. Okay? Okay.

"Waiting to be With You"
Epilogue: Dearly Beloved.
_
Dearly Beloved...
Can you hear it?
The calls of Elysium* are speaking through the wind,
Telling us we are back with the one that we loved.
A Paradise that can never be tainted,
No blood is ever spilled,
I am happy here with you...
I am happy being here, acquainted...
The water is crisp and clear,
And the birds chirp along with your chorus.
The harsh words of the Darkness
I can no longer hear.
Oh, Dearly Beloved,
I want to stay here forever.
With you, by my side,
With our feelings that have developed.
You used to be a friend,
A rival...
But as I heard you soft words of your heart being mine,
I knew there were wounds I needed to tend...
Then, I slayed you unwillingly,
And then I vowed to watch over you,
Until the day I died of insanity,
Or the day my blood pooled around me coldly*.
My Dearly Beloved,
I feel your gaze upon me now.
I turn to you and smile back
And together, we laughed whole-hearted.
As I look up, I can't find
A shrouding black cloud over the moonlight.
The moon cascades upon you,
And your beauty is never blind.
I lean forward and kiss your silk lips.
I feel you smile
And your quasar* gleams
As I take you in sips.
Dearly Beloved,
I could stay here forever in your arms.
And even those stars wither and the sun sets,
My love for you is eternal and said.
The End

Yay! I am done! That was long... Okay, everybody, I have a story idea! But don't worry about, it's a Harry Potter one. But if any of you who read this who are fans, have you seen how many pages just Draco and Harry rated 'R' has?! That's a bunch. Anyway, Thank you everyone!
I added the * for a reason. I have a little thing here that explains the word if any of you are confused.
Elysium- In the Greek or Roman Mythology, I can't remember which one, there was a place in the Underworld that was an everlasting paradise for those who were obedient in life. Also, Elysium in Megaman Legends 2/ Rockman Dash 2 is a place where there is no war, disease, famine, or death. But everyone there is pretty much an android, so, nevermind.
'Or the day my blood pooled around me coldly'- No, this is not suicide. This little sentence is talking about that someone would kill Riku if he didn't die the way he originally did, which was from insanity, strokes, and malnutrition.
Quasar- a celestial, luminous, or heavenly body.
...just an after note... this poem was horrible. I mean, it's hard trying to think of rhyming words for 'Beloved' at 8:00 in the morning!
