Written by Emerald, to Cinder.


I've always found a way,

this hollowness to hide;

A thief by apparition,

to fill the emptiness inside.

I've never yet thought twice;

never reconsidered or paused,

Society cared not for me,

so I care not for its laws.


You saw in me a purpose,

you saw in me some worth;

More than anyone ever has cared,

since my forgotten day of birth.

You gave me a reason,

to believe in my own talents,

And continue to apply them

in your pursuits of malice.


I'm not sure what she did to you,

that girl of silver-iris,

With a blinding flash of light,

what I knew of you was gone.

It's like you've been possessed;

a maiden nonetheless!

I couldn't have imagined

you'd be such a witch's pawn.


I refuse to believe in Spring!

I refuse to let you die!

Isn't love my own illusion

created by these tears I cry?

Have you left me all alone?

I cannot comprehend;

Without even knowing so,

did I somehow lose a friend?


Now I'm involved in something,

for the first time in my life,

My mind is second-guessing;

my gut churning with strife.

You've been the one for so long,

on which I can depend,

How was your flame extinguished?

Is really this the end?
