all i ever wanted was
to be
somebody
fly
on my own wings
not those
that came
before me
not hers

all i wanted was
to be a
person
but always
the echoes
whispering &
ethereal
following me
and they - they
scattered them
like mist in sun
& for once
I felt
a future

buttheflight
thefall
redfeathersin
thedark
lost&found&caught
& I told him -
I told him -
butthepain &
myheartwas
rattling
in
mychest
and

all
i ever wanted
was to
live
& love
& be loved
but I couldn't

even have

that

:( I like Maya a lot, and I think she deserved a happier ending. Poor gal. Also, no spoilers for Nevermore please - I literally just got to the part where Maya died, and it was really touching to me, so I wrote this poem.
