Alright, another sleep-deprived poem, from yours truly! I wasn't planning on writing another, but hey, I didn't plan on being haunted by FFX either. This is from Braska's POV, right before the final summoning, and it's actually more of a song. If I get enough reviews, I just might write another poem. ( hint hint )
Disclaimer: Me no own FFX
Let Me Be the One
Why do I feel like this?
I'm having trouble breathing
Does it have to end like this?
I was so sure, now I'm not
Whose idea was this?
Maybe it was mine
Am I even gonna live through this?
Probably not, I don't think so.
This world of mine
Is worth dying for
But why does the life
Have to be mine?
I don't think I'm ready
All the pain, and all the fear
All the stories that end here
I never thought I'd get this far
Take me away, I'm caving in
Someone has to die
Someone has to end the pain
But why does the life
Have to be mine?
Let it be somebody else
I have family, friends, a life
I'm too weak to go this far
This is more than I can give
Take me back, take me away
Does everyone feel this way?
Why not, so do I
Why me, why not them?
I have more to lose
Now is the time to choose.
Should I turn back now?
Or keep on going forward
If not I, then who will end
All the suffering, all the pain?
I think I've made my choice
I'll go forward
I'll be the one
Goodbye world, goodbye life
Goodbye dear yellow sun
I've got to do this now
Let me be the one
I'll end the pain
I'll end the fear
No turning back
My journey ends here!
Let me be the one
To end the suffering, to bring them hope
End my life
Cue the Calm
Let me be the one.
