I Can't Let Go

Tifa's words to Cloud: I can't let go... I loved you too much. Be careful not to be deceived by illusions...

I Can't Let Go

I can't let go
Of this memory
I can't let go
I can't let go (of you)

Why must it be so hard?
Why must it hurt so bad?...

I can't let go.
Those blue eyes of yours
Trap me in this nightmare
Where I die every single day.
Every single day...

Your stare.
An empty stare...
A stare I've begun to hate.
A stare I've begun to hate.

Your stare.
It used to feel so good.
But it's a stare I've begun to hate.
A stare I've begun to hate.

I can't let go.
I've made too many illusions
To let them rot away.
I can't let go.

I can't let go...
The illusions I've made
Began to rot away.
I still can't
I won't let go.

I can't let go
Of this memory
I can't let go
I can't let go

I know why it should be so hard.
I know why it hurts so bad.

I can't let go.
I loved you too much. (used to 'love' you so much)
I can't let go.
I hate you too much.

Author's notes: Hm. I wonder if this is really a Tifa vs Cloud poem... It depends on how you look at it, I suppose. Anyway, as I've written it, at least, it's Tifa hating Cloud. Now, if you need an explanation... I don't know. You always have the option of e-mailing me, but I don't know anybody who'd go through all that trouble...

Somehow I've a feeling that somebody will interpret this as Cloud/Tifa... but really, I didn't intend it to be that way. Sorry if you get shocked, or offended or whatever. :D

If you've interpreted this poem in a different way, well... I'm all ears. Feh...
