It doesn’t matter any more.
I thought it might; I wasn’t sure.
But now I see it’s best we close that door,
For we can’t matter any more.

It doesn’t matter any more.
It’s not your fault; we’re not to blame.
I love you, and I know you feel the same;
But we can’t matter any more.

It doesn’t matter any more.
Remember me. Don’t let my name
Bring tears to you, or any kind of pain -
For I can’t matter any more.

It doesn’t matter any more.
You’re Narnia’s King, the King they need;
Done in memory of us, of me,
Nothing you can do could matter more.

OMG all this heartbreak!

This is wonderful written and so emotional. Love it!

Remember me. Don’t let my name
Bring tears to you, or any kind of pain

Sadly, I think that didn't work for both of them.

P.S. Shared it over at LJ because this has to bee seen. Hope that's fine, if not just let me know!
