Author's Note: Okay, this poem is back up now. Thanks to foxx-shadow, Kyomithefox, and Shippou's 7 Treasures for reviewing the first time this poem was on the site.
They're gone
They're gone
They're all falling away
Those left are laughing
They're laughing
My pain is just their play
I'm crying
Just crying
Hoping I can escape
Those I love are dying
They're dying
I'm just hiding under a moth eaten cape
I'm running
Running
I wish I could run from this place so twisted and curled
I'm falling
And falling
Into a whole new world
I'm finally happy
I'm here
I don't have to disappear
I don't mean to sound so sappy
But my dreams are finally coming true
You were lost forever
But I've finally found you
And we're here
Together
Let this feeling last forever
I'm loved by my family
There are people who love and protect me
Years of pain
And being frightened
Are all coming to an end
And though I don't know where my old friends
Who me they used to defend
Are in the least
I'm fine now
I'm out of the belly of the beast
But now I've heard some news
As the unweaving of my world ensues,
I can feel the crystal shatter
I can feel the pieces of my broken heart as they scatter
Shut up!
Leave me alone!
Let me dwell in my newfound home!
Don't crush my heart
And destroy my dreams!
This world isn't as it seems!
It's real!
It's what we all really feel!
It's not a mirage!
It's what our souls really sing!
Listen as the broken bell tries to ring
The world I've created
Is fallen
And gone.
You destroyed me
I want to lie here and die
I can no longer hear my mother's lullaby
She's falling away
One more time
I'm just crying
You wanted back home
I wanted to be left alone
Can't you see?
Ivalice was all our dreams weaved together
It was oh so much better.
But now I'm alone
And I can barely remember
I'm just stuck
In forever winter
