But please tell me if you would mind it if I posted it when it's not anime related. If you want me to send it to you personally conntact me @ Ctefi@worldnet.att.net Ctefi ------------------- What are you dreaming of now? From the ocean sea, rocks and fragrant air. What passes before you now? Why do you stay and watch with only half a heart? What do you see in her? yourself? But I can still see you, still and silent, Among the grass and windy hills. Before the waving lilies that lie, On your lover's grave? Is that what you see in her? Do you see yourself and her? Just like then, you watch so silently. I would like to know just what you see. Is it her? The golden tressed love? So alike are they? Is that just what you see in her? Your past? Your happiness? But there is still something, Something that is different. You seem to look on with only half a heart. With the same sorrow and sadness, but, With only half a heart. Is that because you knew? You knew that her passing would come at just this time? Perhaps that is just it. I remember your ranting. "NO!" A single word that held your entire emotions. A single word that expressed your disbelief. How you once thought,"No", none of your dreams would come true. And the same with your nightmares. But they did, your dreams. You loved and were loved, Though, you knew what destiny held for her. For you. And for the water nymph that gazes on with crazed eyes. The golden tressed beauty that reminds you too much. The one that reminds you what you couldn't stop. And what you can't prevent for her. A second love? Did you really love another? After you swore so not to? Not to ever have to touch that part of a soul again. Not to let you feel that feeling in your heart again? And so you do look on with only half a heart, Since you love her in your dreams. And though you made and wanted it so. Your dreams aren't the sanctuary you meant. For you love and lossed again. Once in your heart, and now, Once, in your dreams. What place is safe for you now? Your dreams are no more. They, have turned into the nightmare of memories. And you know who will come now. Who will come to wake you. From dreams. From nightmares. Where are you safe now? I think, I know now. I think I know why. Why you can look on with only half a heart. Half a heart that never held such saddness. -Stephanie Lau 9/7/97 </pre><p><a href="./">Back</a></p><p><a href=http://www.dreamhost.com/donate.cgi?id=216><img border=0 alt="Donate towards our web hosting bill!" src=https://secure.newdream.net/donate1.gif></a></p></body></html>
