A Collection of Poems Based on FF7
author's note:  this is not an acual fanfic but a collection of poems written by
me theorizing as to what the varios characters would write to express
themselves.  Enjoy.
Legal $#^$:  Let me boil it down.  PLEASE DON'T SUE ME!!!!

			Deathwish

Coldnes enwraps my being
carry on without ever seeing
life extinguished by my very hands
I'll kill even the spirit of the land
I regret now what I have done
My anguish sure as the setting of the sun

The one shining light that could have saved my soul
now gone dark and forever cold
I sit in wait for fate's consequence
But all I hear is the faint whisper of my own concience
It seems that godhood will be my prize
but I am less than a man my life is a lie

There is a man who follows my flame like a moth
He hates me, he'll save me from th pain of living as Sephiroth

                                      Sephiroth


		Plant a Flower
	A haiku by: Aeris Gainsborough

Flower from a seed
A new life springs from the land
plants seem so happy

             Growing up in Midgar

"Look out!"  Terrorist attack
"Here they come!"  Shinra strikes back
"Buy a flower?  It's only a gill."
"Join soldier and learn how to kill."
my papa once told me about something called the sun
it gave free light to everyone
but when I look to the so called sky
All I see is the plate sitting fifty meters high
And the edge of my world an electric fence
"You belong to us forever from hence"
There's a whole world out there with wonders galore
green grass, clean air and so much more
I want a life that's so much simpler
but you take what you can get growing up in midgar

		Just Plain Confused
		A haiku by: Cid Highwind

What's going on here?
Huh?  Say what?  I was asleep.
Here we go again.

		Heart of the Creature

All around me I see it happening again
one young man committing my sin
I'm a monster human no more
My heart aches but tears will not pour
Who am I?  What am I?  I am lost
I am Vincent a phantasm a wondering ghost

		Yuffie's Story

I was only a kid in the meaningles war
when those with riches desired more
so looking back that doesn't make me greedy
Just a girl who wants to do right by her daddy
I'll answer when riches call
I'll swim rivers, fight monsters, climb walls
What am I looking for?  I'm not sure
Is it just materia simple and pure?
or is it a thrill?  to run with the wind
or am I just looking for respect or just a friend?
I know some times I'm a brat and sometimes loud
but when I come home papa I'll make you proud.

		Unforgivable

once we were friends
fought side by side
now I hunt you
with hate as my guide

She was just a girl, the flower girl
peace I found in her
she tought me to live she tought me to love
but our happieness was torn assunder

I walk alone in the frozen north
thoughts of your death keep me warm
with inhuman strength and ungodly wrath
I chase your shady form

Soon we'll fight sword to sword
and I shall pry out your black heart
and when I stand over your bloody corpse
I'll laugh long and hard

A thousand Hells I wish on thee
and when you finaly go
though your death will not bring her back
mabey it will ease the blow

Hell's too good for you and the torture I wish on you could fill countles
volumes of books
My Hell is knowing that you can never understand
the value of the life you took

You took my hope you took my love
the pain I feel is unspeakable
we were once friends but now no longer
for you have committed a sin unforgivable
