Ok, this will be the last installment of original poems. The last four will be alterations of the theme song 'Simple and Clean.' If you don't know it, look up the lyrics on or whatever. This is just based on the weather outside right now- like it's gonna rain, but there's no water falling. Kairi, this is your next-to-last hurrah.
Stop And Wish Upon A Star
Stop.
Just stop.
Stop and listen
Please.
Stop and listen because
Everyone's life hangs in the balance
The balance in between what I say
And what you hear me say.
Stop for a moment.
A minute, a second, just stop and listen to me.
Look at the sky on a clear and wonderful night.
Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight
Make a wish
Stop and make a wish.
Here's my wish.
I wish
I wish, wish, wish
That he'd come home tomorrow.
That I'd stop crying today.
No one knows what it's like
To look in the mirror
And not recognize yourself.
I look in the mirror and see.
Sora would have seen the change before it happened
And Riku would have figured it out soon after.
But they're not here.
So I wish
That I could look in the mirror
And not see
Faded, sad blue eyes
Flushed, tear-streaked cheeks
Limp, un-kept hair.
But the worst part of not recognizing that sad girl
Is that I really do recognize her.
She is the girl that so long before Sora and Riku
Went away
The little girl that I hid
That no one would ever see
Crying
Because she was missing something.
I wish
I wish, wish, wish
That everything would stop.
I wish that everything would stop for a moment
So I could keep wishing
And waiting, and keep crying.
The little girl who didn't remember anything
Was buried alive.
And now that I am all alone
I dug her up
So I wouldn't be so alone.
And now we cry together.
So stop.
Just stop.
Stop and hope.
Stop and dream.
Stop and listen.
Stop and pray.
Stop and wish upon the first star you see at night.
Wish for the thing you want most.
But before you wish for it, just stop.
Stop and listen.
Before you wish for the one thing you want most…
Be sure you know exactly what to wish for.
Because when I say I wish time would stop
I am really wishing
To see him alive again.
I'm also wishing
That Sora and I are wishing for the same thing-
Each other.
