A/N: Spat this out in five minutes. XD Probably a little OOC, but, hey, it just popped into my head. Grievous' POV. Enjoy.

DISCLAIMER: If I DID own this, Grievous and Shaak Ti would get a movie all to themselves. There be no movie. Safe to say, I do not own.


I can't look at the sunset anymore.

Not without thinking of the color of her skin.

I can't duel with Dooku anymore.

Not without comparing his fighting style to hers.

I can't inhale the morning air anymore.

Not without recalling how she smells of desert flower.

I can't secure my cloak anymore.

Not without imagining her elegant hands doing it for me.

I can't listen to Ventress' voice anymore.

Not without wishing the gravelly tones were replaced by her smooth cadences.

I can't look at a plant anymore.

Not without remembering how all Togruta love the earth.

I can't fight Skywalker's padawan anymore.

Not without envisioning her frightened eyes beneath my swings.

I can't kill Jedi anymore.

Not without considering how she will be hurt by this new death.

I can't even sleep anymore.

Not without her smile running rampant through my dreams.

This frustrating, maddening, exasperating…

I am not handicapped. I am perfectly capable of performing every task set before me.

Just not without thinking of…her.


A/N: Well? I know, I know, OOC. A little OOC, anyway. Just a teeny bit. Maybe. But, please, review anyway! I'd love some ideas for these...just a one word prompt is great. Please? Pretty please?
