YOU AND ME

What day is it?
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive

The first time I saw you, my heart melted into a puddle.

Not one of love, of course- there was no such thing as love at first sight in my eyes. You were just so beautiful, like an angel in the depth of my darkness, glowing with such beauty and light that you almost blinded me. But it was alright- I loved the torturing brightness that was burning my eyes- all because of the fact that it was you.

I can't keep up
And I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

My knees buckled, and I ran. I ran from the soft smile that graced your lips, the welcoming beam that tugged at the corners of your ever so desirable mouth. And I hid in my cowardly darkness, afraid to see you again. I never did for a whole month.

Maybe it was because I locked myself in my sanctuary, my valkyrie, my room, that you became so concerned over me- asking how I was, bringing me sweet delicacies, taking me under your wing.

But as much as you tried, nothing could keep me happy for eternity. Especially when you were always with him.

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

It used to be just the two of us. Sometimes we would just sit back and relax, while at other times, we would be reading stories to each other, or sparring, or even sprinting. No matter how much I hated running, you would always be there to encourage me, so I gave in and agreed.

Then, as if on cue, Tora came. He was an intelligent and brave man, wise beyond his years. His face was handsome and his body was splendid- no wonder why he caught your attention. I should have left in silence, but I was stubborn and hopeless- probably another reason why you didn’t love me as I loved you.

All of the things that I want to say
Just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
You got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

It was all so overwhelming- the love, the hate, the neutral feelings… sometimes I’d find myself wishing I never met you. You were the sole reason for my joy, you were the light in my darkness, you were… everything to me- my love, my hate, my friend, my enemy.

But no matter how hard I tried, I could not stop loving you.

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

One morning, I made a wish. I needed a reason to hate you, to despise you, to spit on the ground you walked on, but nothing came to my mind. It was hard for me, to watch your hand in his, your gaze on his striking face. But alas, it was still you. And, once again, I melted into a puddle.

But it wasn’t a puddle of love. It was one of hate, lust, envy, wrath- it was a puddle caused by the sinful demons of my heart, the beasts of my darkness, the slaves to the Underworld that was where I was sure I would be heading to. Thoughts I didn’t want to have began to haunt my mind, tearing my sanity apart. All because of you.

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

Yet I still couldn’t forget about you. Every time I crossed your way, my heart would be begging to be let loose, and for a while, just a little while, my darkness would be filled with a soft, white light that was you, and you alone. How I cherished that moment, for it was a moment of hope, peace, and joy.

You and me and all of the people
With nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

Perhaps I was the biggest fool to have been born. Perhaps I was the most shameful coward in the world. Perhaps I was only a mere weakling in your eyes. Even so, I never gave up to make you smile, and whenever you did, it would be a smile just for me, and nobody else. And I would remember that smile, each and every single detail, and paint it in my mind, because that smile belonged to my angel, the burning light in my dark solitude.

You and me and all of the people
With nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

Though it is true that I am a coward, I would never stop loving you. It would pain my heart to see you sad, and so Tora will stay, for he was the sole reason for your happiness, and to tear the two of you apart would be the most dishonourable act ever to be done.

In my darkness, I’m quite fine. Because right now, I’m watching you, and there you are, looking up at Tora, with a smile so fine on your face that, once again, I melted into a puddle- a puddle of love.

What day is it?
And in what month
This clock never seemed so alive
