[talk about an environment Ana had no idea about. so very different from her relatively peaceful life. granted, her biological father died the day after she was born, but her mother married Ray in short order and Ray adopted her, becoming her real dad, someone she knew she could always turn to in a pinch to the point where when her mother married husband # 3 and moved to Las Vegas, Ana moved back in with Ray. normal enough. peaceful enough. people she knew had their tragedies, but her grandparents all passed without Ana being old enough to remember the loss.

and so, she'd never kept a journal. never saw the point. "today, I had chicken fingers in the lunchroom and snuck-read Shakespeare's Sonnets during pre-Algebra. boring.

she had to say this for Tomoe, her life was not boring. maybe she could've used a little more boring? a little more stability]

I Am Only One


Memories fade into the silence
Haunting me tonight
With hope's last breath I take this moment in
It will be the last
Then morning breaks
And sunlight takes the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a life that never was
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I close my eyes and bleed this empty heart
Of all that longs to die
When faces lie and love will falter
I'm left with only time
And time will break
The dreams that take the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a love I'll never have
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I'm on my own here
And no one's left to be the hero of
This fairy tale gone wrong
As night will fall
My heart will die alone

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For my heart to beat again
And all the dreams I've laid to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I am only one
