~Falling Is Half the Fun~

Back to Beast Boy's POV.

***

Shadows hid your face from me,

So that I could not see

The unspoken love

Dancing in your eyes.

But, now I know the truth

As inner secrets pour from your lips,

Secrets you can no longer disguise.

I was being called away

By a warm and brilliant light.

Calling me to a place of dreams. . .

Without any fear,

Without any pain,

But, without any trace of you.

How could I go on

When your darkness called me so?

But, hey, don't worry about me-

I'm gonna be okay.

Not because I didn't die,

But because you love me.

We're gonna be okay.

~Author's Note~

I still don't know if I like this chapter. It serves its purpose, but I can't decide if it sounds enough like Beast Boy. Well, review if you so desire (but no yelling if you don't happen to like this pairing). Also, I was planning on ending the series after the next installment (another Raven POV). However, I got an idea to write a poem from the remaining points of view (collectively). Would anyone be interested in that? I'll probably try and write it anyway, but I just wanted to see if anyone was interested. Finally, if you were wondering about the title for this particular poem – the idea is that falling in love is fun, but finding out that the one you love loves you back is even better.
