**I don't know if it's appropriate to post this here, but I thought...hey...wtf why not. What have I to lose. If you're a fanatic fan of Final Fantasy III (VI) or not...I hope you appreciate the philosophical debate that two risk takers throw themselves into. It's poetic to some extent...but it's very emotional at points and requires a little (a shitload of) story background. Regardless, I hope to get feedback (preferably negative being the sado-masochist that I am). Please endure...I mean...enjoy. :)***

I long for Silence

Silence is my Mistress.
My tears belong to Her.

And I sing for my soul to be still

Anger clouds the mind, Hatred kills the soul
Fury cannot guide a griever out of woe

Have you been to the city of neon lights?
Were you silenced by the things that split the night?
How so, did you come to give an eye to its glory?
Why didn't you blink or give thought for worry?
Did you know that all light to mortals blind...
And in your blindness, darkness will fill your mind?

Of course you now regret this.
Ignorance was never bliss.
I have called you out to save you from being fools.
But nay, you let yourselves become tyranus tools.
Sightless and subject and fettered to objects.
This fantasy which has perverted the real....
