September

This is a songfic I made for the first Warriors Idol.

September
How the time passed away, all the trouble that we gave 

''And all those days we spent out by the lake Has it all gone to waste? All the promises we made One by one they vanish just the same''

Lionblaze sat by the lake, watching the sunset. The Clans were in turmoil, and there was distrust within their own Clan.''

Of all the things I still remember Summer's never looked the same The years go by and time just seems to fly But the memories remain''

He slumped, resting his head on his paws. He felt like Jayfeather was the only cat he could trust. Even Dovepaw-He didn’t want to think about Dovepaw. She had enough problems on her own.''

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain Nothing to lose but everything to gain Reflecting now on how things could've been It was worth it in the end''

Lionblaze remembered playing with Hollyleaf by this very same lake as an apprentice. Life had seemed so peaceful then. Now-every cat was at each other’s throats.''

Now it all seems so clear, there's nothing left to fear So we made our way by finding what was real Now the days are so long that summer's moving on We reach for something that's already gone, yeah''

Lionblaze stared at the lake. Why couldn’t the Clans be so peaceful, so serene?''

Of all the things I still remember Summer's never looked the same The years go by and time just seems to fly But the memories remain''

Jayfeather padded out of the woods and sat beside Lionblaze “Hey. What’s wrong?”''

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain Nothing to lose but everything to gain Reflecting now on how things could've been It was worth it in the end''

“It’s-Just-” He faltered. “ I can’t fight the memories. He felt tears stinging his eyes.''

We knew we had to leave this town But we never knew when and we never knew how We would end up here the way we are Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town But we never knew when and we never knew how''

He glanced at Jayfeather and was shocked to see that his eyes were watering too.”I miss her too.” Jayfeather mewed softly.''

Of all the things I still remember Summer's never looked the same The years go by and time just seems to fly But the memories remain''

Jayfeather padded up toward the crest of the hill. He glanced back at Lionblaze. “It was worth it. We have our memories. That’s all we’ll have. Don’t forget.”''

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain Nothing to lose but everything to gain ''

''Reflecting now on how things could've been It was worth it in the end''
