Ashryn's Atessa

Soo, here you go *ashryn!

Started june 7th, finished june 8th. GAH, worked like a manic on this. I read thru some journals and found ashryn had a competition and I felt like joining, since it's been ages since I've done anything! But her songcompetition inspired me, and she only had alot of great songs to choose from But since I'm traveling awaaay on june 9th I was kinda in a hurry

I am a big VNV Nation fan so of course I love Bruderschaft - Forever! The lyric is powerful and the reason he wrote the song even more powerful. (Same shivering feeling as in Assemblage 23 - Disappoint)

So, here you go Ashryn!

"As the cancer raged through his body and my father began to lose his struggle against the disease, I became more distraught and mournful than ever. In my grief, I wrote for him a song, "Forever," in an attempt to capture his value to me and my defiance towards his imminent departure from this earth. I sat endlessly by his side for the last few days, only sleeping when my body shut down against my will. Regrettably, he lost consciousness before I could share the words I had written with him. Two days later, my father passed away quietly at his home on November 30, 1999."
