A/N: Written for the Diversity Writing Challenge, a20 – sonnet poetry


Out of the Kennel

Her face sparkled with the laughter's bright light
but underneath were sad and lonely eyes
searching for friends who shared the precious sight
of dear Inuki: the friend that wasn't lies
that others said: those who could not see him,
who were not special like her. But one day
she'll meet those other people, on the brim
of an explosive war on the last ray
of a world they were tasked to defend
and she would fight for that, because she did
love the world: the time she has and will spend
with her Inuki. But sorrow she still hid,
because the time to share her friend was still
on the other side of a far and tall hill.
