Author's Note: It's me again! On another poem, of course. ^^ First off, I wanna thank:

Etherealist- Thanks for your review! I like that first stanza, too… partially because it was the easiest one to write. ^^ Thankiez again!

Ameli Stoncius- Thanks for the encouragement and your review! I'll be sure to boost my self confidence…soon. J/K. (About the 'soon' part) Thank you so much! ^_^

Thank you both for reviewing my poem! They are greatly appreciated! ^^

**********

I can see her now

Her deep, cerulean eyes

Her golden, radiant locks

A gift from Aphrodite

Too often taken for granted.

I know what she's feeling now

What's flowing through her mind

Her blood runs cold in her blue-green veins

Her moves as tense as a lover's first time.

Smiles are a fake replacement

For her life, her past

What she left behind

Words are repeated over

Reading between the lines.

Her duty is as follows

Her salutes an icy stroke

Her eyes seeing what can't be seen

Taking orders as they go.

I know what she's feeling now

What's flowing through her mind

Her emotions are mine forever

Mine to be held through time.

We are one together

And what's hers will be mine

A broken, glassy reflection

Holding me together, you and I.

AN2: Booyah! How was zat?! I actually feel good about this poem! ^^ It's supposed to focus on Quistis, for those who haven't figured it out. But I think the second and third line should have given the character away. *_* I gotta go study for my stupid math and bio test now. See, why can't we have a school like Balamb Garden's?? I'd probably be able to get an instructor's license, too…although not a car license…dang it. R/R, pleaz! Check out my fav stories section, too!
