The Ballad of Aerith Gainsborough
by Jennifer Pham (a.k.a. Cloud Kuraudo Strife)
There lived a woman,
whose smile could melt ice,
possessed eyes of bright green,
and was the nicest of nice.
Her name is Aerith Gainsborough,
a lively flower girl.
With the most beautiful flowers,
raised in the darkest slums.
One day she met a man,
who reminded her of her old lover.
His name is Cloud Strife,
a lonely mercenary.
Their meeting was by chance,
a man mysteriously appearing
in Aerith's flower fields,
in the middle of a clearing.
The man vowed to protect
the lovely flower girl,
loving her for eternity,
keeping her safe like a pearl.
There lived a woman,

and was the nicest of nice.
Her name is Aerith Gainsborough,

With the most beautiful flowers,
raised in the darkest slums.
One day she met a man,
who reminded her of her old lover.
His name is Cloud Strife,
a lonely mercenary.
The two shared their
happiness in bliss,
spending nights together,
dancing above an abyss.
Alas, the poor flower girl
met her untimely demise
at the hands of cruelty,
at a lake she lies.
The mercenary grieved,
failing his promise.
Becoming a lone wolf,
guilt is in his guise.
He protects the flowers,
of his dear beloved,
where Aerith's spirit lay.
Never abandoning her love.
