E v e r y thing had been wonderful, back then,
Or maybe it was because he was young.
But nothing had been as good as her:
Charity. She was perfect,
in every single way.
Her soft brown curls,
Her open s m i l e,
Her warm heart.
Too good for him, Charlie (nobody),
just a boy who liked dragons, not causes.
Too good for a world
So full of greed and mistakes.
Unlike her, he wasn't brave enough to
Speak his mind,
So Charlie had never said it. There was
No I love you,
No sweet kisses,
No clasped hands,
No happily-ever-after.
Nothing.
Not yet.
O
The time had passed him by.
Charlie had missed his chance;
He had (never quite) moved on.
Not the distance,
Not his reality,
Could keep Charity
from his thoughts (and dreams).
And so, he had w a i t e d...
Life passed slowly...
(There was no rush, was there?)
Until, suddenly, there was
A war.
(And it was all too fast, too much)
Fighting. Fear.
Family in danger.

Over the edge,
Into the darkness.
Only, it had not claimed them, but
Her. Charity.
Her truth & her honesty
Had led her to
Her grave.
She was gone,
(goodbye)
Taking every maybe into death,
Leaving every should have with Charlie.
She had died for her beliefs,
And he had lived with his regrets.
No I love you,
No sweet kisses,
No clasped hands,
No happily-ever-after.
Nothing.
Not ever.
