A sad Nicercy poem with a tiny bit of story at the end.


What if?

What if I hadn't overreacted?

He wouldn't have felt unwanted.

What if I hadn't shown my anger?

He wouldn't have felt like I was pushing him away.

What if I had kissed him goodnight?

He wouldn't have felt like I loved him less.

What if I had stayed that night?

He wouldn't have felt alone.

What if I had answered his midnight call?

I would have heard him crying.

What if I hadn't yelled at him that day?

He wouldn't have thought I hated him.

What if I hadn't hang out with Jason that night?

Annabeth would have never told him where I was.

What if I hadn't blown off his call?

He would have known he was my everything.

What if I hadn't ignored him that week?

He wouldn't have fallen into depression.

What if I had never went to apologize on Monday?

I wouldn't have found him.

What if I'd just been there?

Then I wouldn't be seeing Percy's ghost.

Tears fell out of my eyes as I watched my sea prince floating above me, his face uncaring, his expression lifeless. "Percy," I whispered, "Why did you take your life?"

His muted green eyes stared at me. At first, I thought he wouldn't answer. When he did, I wished he didn't. "Because you don't love me Nico."

My heart broke. I might as well have been dead too.


*wipes my tears* That was really sad. I just, I wanted to write something like this. As sad as it may be, I needed to write something a little tragic.

Thanks for reading!
