Q.N. As an assignment for English, we had to write a poem with a minimum of 
fifteen lines. I thought it was the perfect opportunity to try something 
different and decided to write it according to my third series. The thing is, 
is that I got too into writing it that I ended up write 60 lines!

I'd give it all to you  
Letting go of me 
Reaching as I fall  
I know it's already over now 
Nothing left to lose 
Loving you again 
I know it's already over, already over now

Already Over

Dad's gone...again;
he's been doing that a lot lately. He makes
sure my sister and I are in bed,
then he leaves...again.
Sydney always goes to get him up;
he sleeps later now; we don't have
breakfast as a family anymore.
His behavior habits have changed also;
he's more fidgety and anxious now, so
unlike him. He loses his train of thought
more each day and seems more scatterbrained.
Maybe he's just sick, stressed even...
What if he's seeing Mom in secret?
That would be awesome!
They could fall back in love and get remarried.
Dad could convince Sophia to let Mom come
home, so she wouldn't be exiled...but
shouldn't they be crowned king and queen?
Eh, doesn't really matter I guess; they
wouldn't be comfortable ruling over
everyone, especially Mom.
But, if they are together, they have to be careful.
Sophia might sentence them to death if caught.

Alarms start blaring loudly,
and lights flash irregularly.
That's not right, something is wrong here.
Dad is running down the hall with Mom,
both looking worried; he's carrying Serenity.
My sister is crying, wanting my mom.
My parents stop long enough for Mom to hold
Serenity, Dad tugging at my arm, ordering me
to run. The look in his eyes and the firmness 
in his voice motivate me.
We're all running now, except for my little
sister, who's being carried by Mom.
Mom looks horrified and afraid;
I hear the running of soldiers, who
are quickly picking up speed.
My dad tells me to run faster; I do.

We run into the garden, we're trapped.
I see Sydney beckoning to us, shouting
for us to hurry. We do.
Mom's still trying to calm Serenity down...
she fails miserably. The guards burst in.
The guards shoot twice; something hits
my sister and my father. Mom hands Serenity
to Dad; she and I continue running,
though she keeps looking back.
Mom is trying to hand me something; a sword.
She pulls her sais out, ready for battle.
Sophia jumps in front of us, striking Mom,
the sound revolting. I feel something sharp
pierce my back; I can't move.

I fall to the ground, pulling a dart from 
my back. I'm crying...Sophia shoots my 
mom point blank; she falls.
The battle, quick but fierce, is over.
The light is giving into darkness; I'm
yawning. Am I dying? Is my family dead?
I'm closing my eyes...I don't want to die...
