Work Text:

 

...

 

back and forth  

back and forth

 

...

 

her lips form a word,  

a word that isn't coming out

 

...

 

splish

 

...  

the rain is still pouring  

slipping to the earth's core

 

...   

yet we sit here in silence  

waiting for the sun to appear

 

...

 

splash

 

...

 

the rain continues

 

...  

up and down  

up and down

 

...  

she's gonna meet me in the sky  

she said her love for me was bigger than the universe

 

...

 

trickle trickle 

 

...  

we sit there quietly  

watching the rain

 

...  

there's a flawlessness to this moment  

a beautiful lullaby

 

...

 

splash

 

...  

we can only see clouds  

but there's a blue sky in there somewhere

 

...  

her eyes are on me now  

big, wide, curious eyes ("...Roxas?")

 

...

 

whish

 

...  

the night sky is full of stars  

countless stars

 

...  

the wind is singing softly  

a smile reaches my lips

 

...

 

whoosh

 

...

the wind is picking up

...  

there's a storm  

it's coming quickly

 

... 

she gives my hand a gentle squeeze  

a million butterflies fluttering around in my stomach ("What did you want to ask me back there?")

 

...

 

ssst ssst

 

...

the wind is no longer a simple breeze passing by  

it's a tyrant ("Why can't moments like this last?")

 

...  

she can't see me anymore  

she can't feel me anymore

 

…

 

whoosh

 

...

i'm not real  

i'm not him

 

...

 

Because, Kairi, it would be too much to ask for.
