"In a world full of war and hate He is my temple and he is my religion Scared yet spirited - as he is my power The demons I had slayed and spared for him I can't help but fall into the depths of him"
Her power lay in her silent sacrifice, moon-like smile, yet her kindness was considered her weakness, her silence her cowardice, but still she was the ever shining sun.
