Lightning-Dono: I don't feel like writing Lloyd's poem. o.o He's just...not poetic. xD; This one is for Marble, a forgotten lady that seemingly only existed in the minds of many players for the beginning of the game. I thought that every character should be recognized, so here we are. :D
Wings on My Heart
-
Feathery soft hair
Eyes of controlled hurt
You were like a child to me
Until the day you left
I'd wait for your return
Little did I know
That the next thing I did
Might be the destruction of you
Every night I dreamed of your hug
Savoring the feeling forever
A little boy embracing his grandmother
Never letting go
Even now, I can feel your wings on my heart
Helping me soar above the dull clouds
Letting me pull away from this sadness
Into a world that would welcome me
The pearly white pulling me forth
Into the sky with each graceful moment
I was like a young girl
Once more
The half-elves pushed as through
As their lowly servants
And they as the point of authority
You were the only half-elf that valued my life
The only one that saw beyond the ashen skin
Wet with perspiration and gray with exhaust
Yet, you forced me on
I didn't want to admit that I was seeing you
That an old lady like me had company
But by then I was deathly sick
Watching the patterns sketch themselves onto my skin
The transformation was done
Ahuman soul trapped in a mass of monstrous flesh
Like a squash in an eggplant field
Alone, unknown, and unrecognized
I had no control as I lashed out
My mind had been taken over
The battle raged without relent
As my inner spirit cried out
Until my defeat, you never knew
What you sacrificed to let me go
The wings that once supported your heart
Were transferred to mine
As I left this world
I couldn't see what had happened
Collapsing to the ground
While an ethereal being rose
It was then that I realized that your wings were on my heart
Helping me through the trouble
Goodbye, Chocolat, though I loved you so
A burden relieved is a burden implied
The pain I have caused you should not have been so
Genis, you were like a grandson to me
And one day you shall regain your wings

The ending was bad. o.o
