My Blind Ignorance Left You Rooted

"Hey Fran...we're still friends, aren't we? You've been so distant lately."

There’s a bright light shining above me
And I step towards it with an eager smile
I can’t leave you behind; take my hand
And yet you stand still, stuck in place

Hey hey!
Let’s go on an adventure
Let’s show the world what we got
My magic is ready to explode
And take down those vermin on the other side

Look, there’s more of us!
So why are you stuck in place?
You barely inch forward when I want to run
But I won’t leave you behind

Hey hey!
Let’s get moving
It’s so glum back here, y’know?
Everybody’s waiting for us
What’s keeping you stuck in place?

The gang is running headlong into the future
And yet you’re still hanging back
You won’t look at me anymore
But now everyone else has gone ahead

I just wanted you to be my friend
And yet you’re still stuck in place
You won’t smile at me anymore
And the others have vanished in the distance

Hey hey!
Will you tell me what’s wrong?
I won’t mind taking a break
I just want you to talk to me
...Hey, are you still there?

There’s no one back here but us
And yet you’re still stuck in place
I just want you to move forward again
But it seems like you’re scared of the future?

Hey hey!
Chin up, my friend!
We can continue on together
I’ll be there to catch you if you fall
So don’t be scared, I’ll always be here!

What’s happened to everyone
I don’t understand anymore
I just want to see you smile again
And you’re still stuck in place

Here when I thought we were blooming warriors
You were secretly withering in the darkness
I don’t understand anymore
Since you won’t move, I’ll bring the light to you!

There’s a bright light shining above me
But it wasn’t what it seemed
And I’ve left you stuck in place
To wither and crumble away...

Author's Note

This was made for an RP group of mine, lol. From a girl named Marin to her friend named Francesca, or "Fran". Later, I plan to make a "response" poem from Fran back to Marin.

Also, this is part of a short, I guess you could call it a, series about all of my gals in this particular RP group. Some of them will have only one poem written about them, and some may have maybe three max.

Because this is from Marin's point of view, it's very almost childish and outgoing like her personality, but some of the others will not be this lighthearted.
