Author's Note: First off, I wanna thank:
Rinoa36-I'm glad you liked my poems! Make sure to come back and read more…well…if you're reading this right now then…duh. ^_^
Ameli Stoncius-Hi! ^^ I'm glad you think of my poems that way. The reason I try not to make them fancy or anything is because it takes me way too long to finish the poems like that and my vocabulary isn't all that expanded. Thanx for your review a million trillion times!!!
I really, really appreciate yours guys'…or…girls' ^^ reviews! Thank you SO MUCH! *bear hugs*
Disclaimer: I own a copy of the game. Does that count?

Hyne has given me
A special kind of power
To see into the past
And to break the near future.
It's a dangerous gift
Yet useful all the same
To help us defeat the sorceress—
Ultemecia is her name.
I'm glad to be helpful
To all those that are around me
Still I'm deeply afraid
Afraid of what they'll see.
Because a journey to the past
Isn't always comforting
Sometimes it can bring bad memories
Things that aren't worth remembering.
Yet often these crossings
Between the past and the present
Are necessary to be understood
While you're still an adolescent.
Because when you grow older
You tend to not forgive
You tend to disregard the ones
For whom your existence lives.
You won't talk to them
You won't listen to what they have to say
And every moment you live through like this
Adds to their guilt each day.
The past is the past
And it will stay that way
But you'll have to face the truth
Of their actions one day.
Realize what you're missing
And learn how to forgive
The ones who you'll learn to love
Each day as you live.

AN2: Ok, this poem wasn't all that great…I couldn't concentrate because I kept thinking that the jump of topics from stanza two to stanza three was really weird. Isn't it? Anyways, this poem's supposed to describe Ellone (that should've been given away at the first stanza. ^^) talking to Squall about why Laguna made the decisions that he made. (About leaving Squall in the orphanage and stuff). I'm also starting on a new fanfic, but haven't posted it yet cuz I can't think of a frickin' title for the story. R/R, PLEAZ! Thank you!
