Secondhand Love

(Tifa)

I remember the sweet scent

Blossoming flowers

How I grew to hate that smell

I watched in silence

As Cloud became intoxicated by it

His mind pushed me out

And welcomed her in

How could I not recent her?

She was foolish

Going all alone

Did she know how much it hurt him?

I hated her more

To see his pain

Would he mourn for my death

Like he did hers?

Would his eyes burn with tears

His hands shake?

Would he ever know I would

Happily die for him?

He seeked vengeance

Driven like a wild man

I helped him, wanting to stop the pain

I now realize I will forever

Be in her shadow

Sephiroth died and he still thought of her

Should I stop trying?

Will his heart ever open to me?

I wish I knew

Until I do, I will go with him

To the land where she rests

For all eternity.

I hope you like this Tifa poem. I am not a huge Tifa fan, so this was hard for me to do. I hope you like it. Please RR, thanks.
