Did I mention that this is a songfic???
The song is "Behind These Hazel Eyes" by Kelly Clarkson.
Pay attention to what Tahiri means by the song, instead of the way it was written.
To make things clear: Anakin didn't leave her ... not in that sense.

16 year old, Tahiri Veila, looked out at the sunset.
Her emerald eyes had turned hazel after his death.
She was dressed in her transparent night robe,
allowing the wind to embrace her, and blow her tears away.
Seems like just yesterday ...
you were a part of me.
I used to stand so tall,
I used to be so strong.
Your arms around me tight,
everything felt so right.
Unbreakable, like nothing could go wrong.
She thought of Anakin Solo; of their first kiss, and the many others after it.
She looked down at the piece of paper she was holding in her hand.
It was a note from Anakin, two days before the fatal Myrkr mission.
Tahiri squeezed her eyes shut,
and another tear trickled down her wet cheek.
Now I can't breathe,
no I can't sleep.
I'm barely hangin' on...
Thunder rolled in the distance,
and the gray clouds drew closer.
A few minutes later, it began to rain.
Tahiri didn't even bother going indoors.
She looked to the sky and allowed her tears to mingle with rain drops.
Her pain struggled to find words.
Here I am, once again,
I'm torn into pieces!
Can't deny it,
can't pretend,
just thought you were the one ...
She had thought he was the one.
They were supposed to have grown up happily and ... and ...
Broken up deep inside,
but you won't get to see the tears I cry -
Behind these hazel eyes.
Tahiri sank to the wet veranda floor.
Her pain seemed to be eating her up on the inside.
Her sobs joined the groans of the thunder, all she wanted was for the pain to subside.
Lightning struck a ways off.
I told you everything,
opened up and let you in.
You made me feel alright,
for once in my life.
She looked down at the note he had given her.
All she wanted to do was crumple it up and hurl it away.
Tahiri wished she could forget Anakin Solo.
But she couldn't.
He couldn't come back - he was dead.
She'd have to live with her pain for the rest of her life.
Now all that's left of me
is what I pretend to be.
So together, but so broken up inside.
Tahiri slipped the note into her small pocket
and just wished lightning would strike her - end her pain.
It's funny,[/color] she thought. I can endure any kind of physical pain with so much as a flinch. But when someone I love dies ... I can't bear it. I can only scream for the mercy I know I'll never receive.
'Cause I can't breathe,
no I can't sleep,
I'm barely hanging on...
Tahiri let out a half moan, half sob as the storm grew to a deafening level.
Here I am, once again,
I'm torn into pieces!
Can't deny it,
can't pretend,
just thought you were the one.
Broken up deep inside,
but you won't get to see
the tears I cry,
behind these hazel eyes.
Tahiri's pain shifted to momentary fury at the Yuuzhan Vong and herself.
She clenched her fists as hard as she could, and the dark clouds grew in mass.
Swallow me, then spit me out!
For hating you I blame myself.
Just seeing you - it kills me now...
Tahiri stifled her sobs and wiped away her tears.
She had to get over him; she had to move on.
No, I don't cry
on the outside anymore!!!
She sighed and walked inside,
fingering the note brokenly.
Anymore...
Tissue, anyone?
*sniffles*

Tahiri,
I wrote a poem for you (us):
Be my pride,
Be at my side.
Just be my guide,
and be my light -
shining so bright
in the beauty of the night.
Love, Anakin
