The Missing OMWF song: Standing in the Way (reprise)
Author: blackbeltchic
Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with anything affiliated with Buffy the Vampire slayer, everything belongs to the big wigs who gave it to us, and then took it away. I own nothing.
Dedication: I would like to dedicate this to Bek, because it is all her fault that I am now a BeeGee lover. Just blame her, I just did.
Author's notes: I have no clue how this came to me. I don't write poetry, normally, and I have only written one song in my entire life, and that was when I was 9. I was just updating my site...recoloring the OMWF lyrics, and this just hit me. It took a lot longer than I ever spend on a fic this size, but I knew this would be special, so I took the time. I hope this came out ok, but feedback would be great.
Summery: set during OMWF, after Sweet is gone, and Giles is alone in his apartment. In the true BeeGee fashion, his feelings for Buffy are more than fatherly, and I hope that's portrayed here.
Feedback: required
Giles: (even slower that Standing in the Way)
You're not ready
For the feelings inside....
I just keep pretending
But I could never hide
I know I said I'd be
Standing by your side...
But I...
Your trust's been broken
And your heart's been smashed
You've put them back together
But it just won't last
My feelings are slipping
And I must go fast
But I....
I wish I could do something
To make these feelings go
I wish I could flee this thing
That's been making me act so
But I...
The cries around me
I don't hear at all
When you're so close to me
My walls start to fall
So I just hide behind my books
When I should be standing tall
But I...
I wish I could lay these walls down
I wish these feelings wouldn't last
I wish I could tell of these feelings
But now that time is past
I wish I could stay
In your arms forever
Live this life together
Because I...
I love you and I always have
I wished I wouldn't, but that didn't last
And now I must leave fast....
Before you learn of this crime I've committed
But I...
