When She Loved Me

[Raven 'The Sweeney' Drake]

Raven sat down at her piano in her home, it was something that she had not touched in many years, simply because it was not really her piano, it had been one that she had bought for Briony when she had come to stay at her house for a few months...of course that was many years ago.

It was one of those times that her sadness seemed to well up upon her like a great wave of grief and she could do nothing else but allow it to take over, she was glad that Konig was not here, she knew that it would upset him to see how much she was still effected by the loss of Briony, but also the sanity that she had when she first met her.

Playing a few keys of the song that she had been taught by Briony, it seemed to vent her sad mood out through the keys she was pressing.

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
And when she was sad, I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy, so was i, when she loved me.

Through the summer and the fall, we had each other, that was all
Just she and I together, like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely, I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me.

So the years went by, I stayed the same
And she began to drift away, I was left alone
Still I waited for the day, when she'd say "i will always love you."

Lonely and forgotten, never thought she'd look my way,
She smiled at me and held me, just like she used to do,
Like she loved me, when she loved me

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful,
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
When she loved me.

Blinking back a flow of steady tears Raven collapsed onto the piano and sobbed for a few minutes before, suddenly, she stopped, and merely stood up from the stool, cast a glance back at the piano, before bringing out her razor and slashing at the wood, at the keys and at the soft fabric of the stool.

After her blind rage was over, Raven stood, panting and stared at the broken carcass of the piano, a smirk coming over her lips;

"Much better." she chuckled to herself, before sticking her hands in her pocket and walking off to find Konig.
