In Memory

Zakipoe79

Authors Note/Disclaimer: Tales of Symphonia does not belong to me, however I might wish. This is my tribute to Mithos Yggdrasil! I usually write about Zelos, but this is an old typed-up version of a poem I wrote on the back of my math work sheet last year upon beating TOS for the third time. I had listened to Mithos and was really depressed, so yeah. I wrote this to him… even though he is kinda… dead… and not here… Yeah.

When memories betray you,

And the road of past transgressions

Fails you

And your revenge does not save you

What do you do?

You are a fallen hero, but in my mind,

You remain a child.

Shall I forsake you in exchange

For what I wish was real?

Bitter words, poison you,

Cold wrapped around you

Love that embraced you

Who are you?

Traitors of your heart, they are your blood,

Bleed for you.

When tears won't carry you

And pain doesn't feed you,

And hopes won't lift you,

What do you do?

When time surpasses even you,

And you crack,

And your reflection smiles,

What will you do?

When the present holds you,

And your mirror protects you…

What will you do?

When the past chains you, and your

Sorrow

Cannot free you,

And your dreams have now left you…

When the madness leaves your eyes, and…

Desire drains from your voice,

And your life leaves you…

I must ask myself…

What will we now do?

A.N.: I mourned Mithos! Dude! I wonder if it's because he reminds me of myself to some extent? Although, he probably would have killed me, too. I guess it's because in his situation, I would have done the same thing. Or have been too lazy to do so. Probably too lazy. I would have followed him, though, to pass the time. XP And gotten myself into some serious sheet. Dude. Do angels molt? If so, do Derris-Kharlan and Welgaia have angelic janitors? Or would they just molt all over the place, too?
