Aelin Ashryver Galathynius
I know the things I cry for
And it seems stupid to you
The things my heart wrenches for
You couldn't ever understand
I was born with a book in hand
Even before I could read anything
When my eyes didn't comprehend
And my heart didn't always break
I find comfort in the books I read
In the characters who I understand
And the plots where I know who'll win
The fear of not knowing whose life is forfeit
I made my home in this Throne of Glass
In the story of Aelin, so much like me
Passionate, with a fire burning in her soul
With the desire to always be in control
But that fire in her soul needs to be fed
And her loved ones are the ones who do it
She would give her life for them with joy
If only to never see their suffering end
And I know that now my heart has broken
Because of something you can't understand
Because Aelin was one of my best friends
And now, she's so terribly far away from me
