Hey Guys! No, I didn't die…but the semester isn't over yet… :Groan: Anyways, it's that time of the year again :Gag: and once again, I'm back with the Anti-Valentine's Day works that intend to smite thee. My debut came last year with Faltered Faith, and I intend to make it into a tradition. I have three pieces this year, which I will be posting as separate stories (No real reason, except that I'm a shameless self-promoter who wants more stories on her list. xD) Anyways, this is the first posted, though it will probably be the last read. Note: For those who are reading this and have updated since January, I haven't forgotten you! This semester has been really intensive and I just haven't had time. Reading Week is next week and I promise to catch up with you guys. Thanks for your patience!
This poem is a collaboration of both Sora and Kairi speaking to each other across the stars. Italics – Kairi; Bold – Sora; Bold and Italic – They are speaking in unison. My rhythm is terrible, I know. Please bear with me.

I feel like I'm falling. Falling through the abyss of the murky night. I'm looking for your hand…the hand that I lost so long ago. I keep trying to fly back to you…but my heart keeps falling away. Falling…with Blackened Wings…
Blackened Wings
Everywhere I go today
All I see around me are pairs
Red hearts and arrows flying
Driving my heart into despair
Selphie's droning constantly
About her Valentine's biggest feat
People flirting everywhere
Plaguing each step, walking in the street
Their smiles are disgusting
Happiness showers me with Hate
Whispering sweet nothings…
God, this feels so fake
I hate these breaking thoughts
That we are no longer
But the heart really is victim
To absence making it stronger
I imagine she must be pretty
The new girl by your side
He must be something special
That new guy in your life
Decaled in a stunning light
I just know his smile is loving you
Shining in the darkest nights
She must be pretty
With a crystal heart to match
I know you must be happy
Loved without strings attached
It's not that I don't trust you
Or think your faith is dead
But I know it's been too long a wait
Since the day we had said
'The one day a year'
One day love…How stupid
'To prove your undying love'
An oxymoron and translucent
Angels, Lace; so disgraced
Red death, crimson vice
Braindead fools; Cupid's tools
Love bought at a price
I can't believe this holiday
So Hallmark and contrite
So why is it I'm longing
To be with you more so tonight?
