Hi! Aithne here. (That's not my real name.) I am new to FanFiction and this is my first time publishing so please let me know if there are any formatting errors!
With that said- this is just a poem that I made for Percabeth at two AM the other day. I know it repeats a lot- that's because I originally wrote it as a song. Hope you enjoy!
When we first met
None of us knew
Actually, in fact
No one could guess
I woke with you over me
You looked at me a moment
Then turned away
We weren't exactly friends
Nor enemies either
But now, we both know
It would just take time
Remember that time
When you were gone from my side?
When you held the weight of the world?
Well, that was when the thought began
There's a saying, you know
"You never know what you have 'till it's gone."
If you went all the way
to the end of the earth
If you fell off the edge
Into the dark
I'll follow you always.
To the darkest of darkness
To the blinding sun
To the highest mountain and higher
To the deepest pits and deeper
To hell and back
If you should fall
I'll fall with you.
I'll fall with you always
No matter how far
We'll always pull through
As long as we're together
You won't get away from me
Never again
We're not two, but two halves
We always fall together.
Remember that time
when we fought back-to-back?
When a blade came for my heel
That no one knew of
You sensed what it was
And you took that knife for me
Because then, we both knew.
Later that day
As you lay with shoulder bound
I told you of my heel
I asked "How did you know?"
And you said, "Instinct."
I think we both knew then
Though we did not confess
I know I felt something
But you never know what you have, 'till it's gone.
If you went all the way
to the end of the earth
If you fell off the edge
Into the dark
I'll follow you always.
To the darkest of darkness
To the blinding sun
To the highest mountain and higher
To the deepest pits and deeper
To hell and back
If you should fall
I'll fall with you.
I'll fall with you always
No matter how far
We'll always pull through
As long as we're together
You won't get away from me
Never again
We're not two, but two halves
We always fall together.
There were other times too
I'll name a few now
Remember when I vanished
and we were both only half?
Remember when you went alone
To face your worst fear?
You wouldn't let me come
Said it had to be solo.
I found you again
The ending was grim, yes
But I wouldn't do it any other way
I fell with you
Because I wanted to
You told me to let go
And I told you
You won't get away from me
Never again
And you know what you said?
"As long as we're together."
I let go, and we fell
To the deepest of darkness
But it was okay, because we were together.
If you went all the way
to the end of the earth
If you fell off the edge
Into the dark
I'll follow you always.
To the darkest of darkness
To the blinding sun
To the highest mountain and higher
To the deepest pits and deeper
To hell and back
If you should fall
I'll fall with you.
I'll fall with you always
No matter how far
We'll always pull through
As long as we're together
You won't get away from me
Never again
We're not two, but two halves
We always fall together.
We always fall together, together, together.
