I am a Jedi.
and the Jedi follow the Will of the Force.
I know that.
That's who I am.
Still it doesn't comfort me
when I lie awake in these
cold lonely hours of the night.
I know you are not sleeping either.
What you are thinking I don't
dare to guess.
It's so cold, so lonely.
If I came to you now
would you turn away
contempt in your beautiful eyes?
Everything you hold so dear
I took away.
Your master, your love.
It was always me and you
against the dark universe.
And I turned away.
Left you.
The Will of the Force.
It is now all I have.
If I question that, I will have nothing.
So I don't.
I just lie here, in the darkness.
Waiting for day to come.
