[ W a t e r f a l l ] by Tifa Strife Her family taken away For her sins she did pay Her love she did hide In him she’d never confide A mirror shattered Her feelings didn’t matter A blood stained mirror Loniliness did she fear Redemption is what she saught Emptiness is what she got Never to leave this hellish place Wanting her devil with his angelic face Wanting her son she hadn’t held ‘It’s all your fault!’ her demons yelled She fell to the floor clutching her head Knowing she’d be better off dead But Hojo had stolen that escape Taking with it all her faith The disease was beginning to take its toll Destroying her body ever so slow A waterfall her only release Her restlessness and pain never to ease A brokenheart did she nurse Wishing to be free of her endless curse Knowing she was condemed for eternity Never to be free Enfolded in Chaos’ wings Light reflected off a golden ring Fear haunts vacant eyes Always believing the truth for lies Her love a sacrifice Turning her heart to ice Her eyes no longer shed tears Death she no longer fears Jenova cells steal her breath Slowly leading her towards death She closes her eyes and dreams of love long gone And slowly drifts into her angels arms Death did release them both Allowing them to hope
