Letter to Lucrecia

Folder: 
Oldies :)

Night…
Vincent’s endless sleep…

When will the torture end?
Unceasing memories, each wrought with guilt beyond measure.
Layered with that for which I must repent.
Lucrecia…
Do you dream at night?
Are you faring well?
The only thing that fights the insanity inside my head is the thought of you alive and well.
How is Sephiroth?
Has he grown to be the man Hojo wanted him to be?
The son you’ve longed for?
The son…I am not the father of?
I have seen many things of the future within the vicinity of my cold realm, all of which are cloaked in darkness…
Our future is to be filled with laughter, light, and love…isn’t it?
My sleep continues as I repent for that which has come to pass, regardless of my past defiant actions.
Everything will turn out wonderfully in the end because you are there.
However, I will pray for the repair of my body, to cast out the demon that is so longing to be free.
I wish to be presentable when I finally see your beautiful face again.
My current state would make you avert your eyes in shame…
I wish not to frighten you.
Have no fear, I am still the same Vincent Valentine you knew…
I’m still the former Turk who fell in love with you.
Maybe all this time I’ve had to think has done me well.
To my love and future, Lucrecia…
My Goddess for Eternity.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I don't own Final Fantasy 7 or any of the characters therein. ^.^ I'm just in a really depressed mood.

Was just browsing your page & stopped when I saw the name of this poem. You see, I'm an avid gamer as well, FF7 being my favourite game, & Vincent being my favourite character in the game. So to read this & remember his story really did me well on this day, & I commend you for your own fandom. I always thought there ought to be more female gamers. FF4-9 never died for me. Not yet.
