Our last farewell

by Kyrodo   Oct 6, 2007


It all pains me
The scarring wounds on my tattered body
The bruise on my cheek
The tears in her eyes
The icy stares of our friends
The angel continues to cry
For the loss of her love
My eyes turn dark, and all I can do is look away

I longed so much to hold her
And tell her everything will be all right
To be more than just her friend
But her heart is not with me
And I'm the one responsible for her pain
Therefore, I'll never forgive myself...
Can't you understand?
There was no other way
Even though we lived like brothers
It was his heart that was lost to the darkness

I remember it clearly
When we used to laugh together
Along with all our friends
The three of us held the strongest of bonds
We were there for each other in the darkest of times
When the world walked out, we never left each other's sides

We fought together, and stood victorious among the worst of hardships
We slew the strongest of monsters
We stood against the toughest of warriors
We scaled the tallest of mountains
And endured the hottest of flames

We stood proudly as this country's champions
To fight against the evil that's haunted this land
The enemy of all
But our oppressor turned out to be the most cunning of demons

Our long time friend shared his same blood
All this time, we never knew
The enemy spoke to him beyond our hearing
Words of darkness , mischief, and enmity
He witnessed horrors we could scarcely imagine
The state of his mind and sanity did not bode well
In order to stop the supposed deaths of us and the country
He took a path of shadows, working secretly behind our backs to satiate the foul sorcerer

The betrayal was a painful fact, but it no longer matters
Next morning, we were to set out for a power which could give us the strength we needed
I saw him leave, so I set out after him
Before I could stop him, the star that held our hopes and dreams was shattered
Right before my very eyes

I fought him against my will
Our battle was surrounded by earth and fire
We matched each other blade for blade
Spell for spell
Crystal lights collided all around us
Our bodies were as swift as wind
As nimble as the clouds
The fight became a hypnotic dance of destruction
An epic clash between angels of death

I'll never forget his eyes
Glinting in both pain and determination
All outer existences became lost in oblivion
Our faces became a look of horror as my blade ran him through
The face of an adversary became the face of my friend
I watched his blood spill, and his eyes falter
The pain in my mind out-weighed that of my torn up body

Here we stand before his burial
The atmosphere was almost palpable with the gloom
The rain came down heavy and hard
Tears of sadness mixed in with its waters
Our life-long friend lay dead before us
His story ended in tragedy and betrayal
Deep in our hearts, we all become disillusioned with the reality of this world
The absurdness of the place we lived in
With one last tear, we give our last farewell.

(I was bored xD it almost sounds like a story)
