Work Text:
I was flying free
Made the world around me change
Heard a song from afar
Calling me to be
Following the music
Pushing through the barrier
See a flash of green light
I'm changed on the inside
Blue, red, cold and wet
The boy lies on the floor
In a mess
Pale and starved, unable to see
He's the one, who wanted me to be
Trying to help
Changing my form
Becoming real
In a world that can't hear
I did all I could
It wasn't enough
Kept despair at bay
Should have erased his pain
Had to watch him slip away
Warmth of a hand
Cradled in mine
I've lost sense of time
Wanted to cry
Felt a hole open up
Beneath my feet
A darker symphony
Now calling to me
Sat silent forever
They took him away
Feeling scared and ashamed
I am forgotten
Left with just a name
Carrying his memory
Remembering I failed
