Departed

  Why?

I never meant for any of this

I thought you knew that

How?

It was a foolish thing that followed something Beautiful.

It was an empty heart that began something Foolish

  The heart of love cannot be empty.

The empty heart cannot be broken

For every broken bridge, both sides are unable to cross.

  When?

But perhaps it was for the best

The best for whom?

The best for... you?

  The best for both of us. Right?

  Please, I need this to work.

Remember the tool you used to cause this?

  Dear god, don't remind me

Don't play that card, please.

  Who talks of cards when you've played all 52?

How can you say that to ME?

All you ever wanted was to be free.

I can't lie; I did, it's true

But look at ME Love! Look at me; it wasn't I that forced you through!

Why, tell me, why?

Please. Please .

I will never forgive myself, but

It had to be this way.

You know that!

I know that.

You are right.

Can we please not fight?

That's all I ever wanted

Why?

I never wanted to battle you; all I needed was for you to understand

  All of my soldiers are slewn, I have no more command.

Will we take our mistakes and begin our new ways?

I never meant to destroy, but some things are fragile enough.

I wish to repent. I wish to leave.

Me?

Leave... me?

Please.

No! Freeze! Put your hands up! Drop the weapon !

You cannot!

Look at me! At ME -- I am once shot!

I plead guilty

You robbed my stores of all my precious, but I will not let you get away from murder. I won’t take this force. I will not allow it to be ablatitious.

  I plead guilty of all charges! Take your cogent hands and tie me, lock me up and toss away the key.

No. You need to be with me.

If I must, I will lock myself in with you.

...Compassion at the hands of the captor?

A captor? Isn't that what we both are?

  Yes...Could you forgive me?

How could it be?

But I have no answers left

  Because you never had any questions !

There was nothing I needed to know

Then go.

How I wish I could, at times.

I will let you.

I will bow to death.

Are you ready?

Am I ready?

If you feel it is so.

  Then, Love. You must... you must go.

I love...

You. Not your memory.

How I wish you were here.

  Now I am alone... into my own cell... I am thrown.
