Hey guys, I've decided to rewrite "Tears to Shed", except in Courtney's POV. So y'all can see her thoughts on all of this. Enjoy. The song is "The Hanging Tree" From the book 'Mockingjay' (Hunger Games Trilogy)
Priestess Dragon: I LOVE your reviews! XDXDXDXD Your my favorite now, I will be writing more for you. :)
I Love You, Don't Leave Me, You Promised. (The Hanging Tree)
A smile appeared on my face as I twirled in Yami's arms.
"Yami.. I-" I started to say, but I was interrupted.
"I know love, I know." Yami said.
My heart stopped for a moment when he called me that. This is what I've always wanted. It seemed like he had never thought of me as more than a friend...
My inner monologue was interrupted by Yami's lips touching mine.
My eyes instantly widened for a brief moment because I was so shocked. His lips were softer than they looked!
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three.
I shivered when I felt a rush of cool air. Something has happened.. I noted.
I pulled my lips away from Yami's to investigate.
"What's wrong?" Yami asked, confused at my actions.
"Something... is wrong. Did she see us?" I asked.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
"Who?" Yami asked.
"Kiyra." I whispered.
Yami stared at me. "The ghost woman?"
"Also your wife in the past, Yami." I said, voice shaking. "She must have saw us!" I said, panicking.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee.
Yami blinked. "What does it matter? The past is over. We must concentrate on the present."
My vision clouded for a moment in rage. "How... how can you say that?! She was your WIFE for Ra's sake!" I shouted.
Yami's crimson eyes instantly widened. "I'm sorr-"
"No. Don't you dare apologize to me." I raged. "Go make sure she's okay."
"But-" Yami started.
"Please?" I asked. "She was kind to me, please make sure she doesn't do anything drastic."

Yami sighed. "For you my love. But I will comeback."
I looked up at him with hopeful eyes. "Promise?"
Yami smiled reassuringly. "I promise. Wait for me here."
"I will. I shall wait here. For you." I promised.
Yami planted a small, gentle kiss on my lips before leaving.
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free.
Hours and hours I waited for him to come.
Soon the air got colder and still.
A wolf howled in the distance.
"Yami? Where are you?" I whispered.
Strange things did happen here

I stood up and walked through the cold, desolate woods. The only things lighting my path were the full moon and the stars in the sky.
"Yami!" I called out.
No answer but a distant howl.
He's in trouble! He has to be!
My footsteps echoed as I ran through the woods.
"YAMI!" I screamed as the wind began to suddenly blow.
Please let Yami be okay...
A gasp of horror escaped my lips when I finally found him.
No he can't be... He is... Yami is dead.
I ran up to him and cut his body down with my pocket knife.
"Yami... yami... why?" I whispered, holding his body close.
He was so cold... and pale.. Nothing like before..
Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Wear a necklace of rope, side by side with me.
"Why did you kill yourself Yami? We just... you just started loving me.." I mumured.
My gaze flickered away from his body for a brief moment when a cool breeze blew on me, causing me to shiver.
Then I looked back at Yami.
But.. His body was gone.
"Why? I loved you Yami. Why did you leave..?" I murmured.
Then I looked up at the sky.
"You promised."
