:::Long time, some time ago
:::You
broke my heart
:::And
you broke my soul
You left me. Just like that. Not a word did you leave behind. Once you promised
you would always stay with me. But you didnīt keep your promise. Why? Was I not
enough for you? I feel so alone and incomplete without you by my side. Maybe
Iīm really weak. I know that people think that. I always tried to convince them
that they were wrong. Was I lying to them?
:::You keep on going on and on
:::And I
was hoping,
:::That
you'll come back
I sigh and sit down on the windowsill. I lay my head against the cool panes of
the window and close my eyes.
Another day went by and you didnīt return. Day after day, week after week, I
sit here and watch the road leading to my house ītill my eyes start to burn and
I hope. But with each day the sparkle of hope grows weaker and weaker and I
fear that the day will come when it disappears and I will grow cold inside. So
cold.
:::Won't you come back to me
:::Come
back to me my love
:::Come
back to me, come back to me my love
:::Won't
you come back to me
:::Come
back to me, come back to me my love
Friends fear for me. They call every day. Even Wufei stopped by a couple of
times to rant about nothing. All of them tried to pull me out of the shell I
hid in when you disappeared... Did you know that I had to take
"vacation" at work? Iria gave it such a nice name, didnīt she?
Vacation... But I know what it means. Iīm fired. Noone needs a lovesick CEO.
How did she put it? Oh, yeah. It "wasnīt good for the business".
Maybe she is right. But still... I never expected her to be so cold.
:::You kept on hoping
:::For
the day to come
:::When
you and I
:::Would
be like one
I had so many plans for us. I wanted to ask you to move in with me after the
war ended. I wanted to surprise you that day you... I swallow. Even after so
many weeks it still hurts to just remember the morning when I woke up and
reached out to touch your body that I knew would lay right next to mine. But
the only thing I touched were cold sheets. Would you believe that I had been
convinced that you just... stepped out? That you went to
buy the paper or take a walk or... I believed it the whole day. When the night proved
me wrong I went through all the hospitals there are on L4. I even visited the
morgues... I shudder. The smell, the cold... One would believe that after all
the months of fighting a war, I would get used to it. But you know that I hate
death...
:::It never happened
:::Why
should I lie
:::Always
hoping that you'll come back
It hit me really hard when Heero came and told me that one "Trowa
Barton" left L4 on a shuttle at 7 am the day you vanished. I didnīt want
to believe it even when I saw it with my own eyes. You wouldnīt do that to me.
You wouldnīt disappear without saying a word. Without any explanation. You
wouldnīt, would you? Would you?
:::Won't you come back ...
I squeeze my eyes tightly, but still one small tear manages to escape. You left
me and it still hurts so much. I would at least want to know why. Did I do
something wrong? Did I push too hard? Did I do something to force you away?
Please tell me that I didnīt. Because if itīs true and all that happened is my
fault... I wouldnīt be able to live with myself. To lose the best thing in my
life because of my stupidity... I wouldnīt be able to take it.
:::And he will come
:::And
fill my heart
You always hated it when I cried. And I hate it too. Boys donīt cry, right? But
it doesnīt help to quiet the sobs that force their way out of me. Boys donīt
cry... But what would the boys do when there was nothing left for them? I fear
that I will go insane from the grief I feel. It squeezes my chest and makes it
really difficult to breath. Trowa, please! Come back to me!
:::With the love
:::That I
want
I hear the door to my room open and close. Why canīt they just leave me alone?
Nothing they do or say will make it right. Only one person has the power to
bring the light back into my world.
"Go away..." I whisper, my voice rough from crying.
The steps are muffled by the thick carpet, but I still can hear the unwelcomed
guest come closer. He stops next to me but I donīt lift my head. I feel tired.
So tired...
"Go away, please..."
There is a hand on my shoulder and I stiffen. Who...
"Quatre?"
The quiet voice quickens my heart and I turn around quickly to see if it is
true or if I finally snapped.
I canīt see him properly. My eyes are swimming with tears and the room is
rather dim but...
"... Trowa...?"
Please please please... tell me itīs you...
"Iīm home, blue eyes," he whispers with a small smile.
I throw myself into his arms and I feel him squeez me tightly, press me to his
chest and I cry like Iīve never cried before...
"Iīm sorry. So sorry. So sorry," he repeats over and over again, but
it doesnīt matter to me. I feel the warmth of his body, the puff of air leaving
his lungs, the heart that beats with life and nothing else matters at this
moment.
Iīm happy because you see... he came back to me...
:::Long time ...
The End
