Hi everyone! :D
As my muse has been quite active as of late, giving me ideas for some poetry (after a long while), I've decided to start with another collection of poems on my favourite couple! NarutoGaara-GaaraNaruto forever and ever!!! LOL
Alright, this said, whoever wants to go on reading is very much welcome to do just that :P and if you were so kind as to leave a review, then you're that much more welcome to do it!
Words: 670 more or less
Warning: 2 POVs
- "blah" Naruto's
- "blah" Gaara's
Disclamer: I own nothing but the ideas... XD
Read&Review!
Ja ne,

The Only Sky I Look At
How long has it been
since the last time that I've seen
your beautiful eyes shining up at me?
How long since I've traced your cheek with a finger?
Never before I've been faced with this;
I don't know if it's more worrying or comforting…
this constricting feeling inside, I've never felt it
and I don't know what to do anymore.
I'd been so happy to finally find someone
as precious as you –
I can't believe all the suffering
you've had to pull through…
Even when you're away, thoughts of you stay with me:
it's like you're always here;
I feel the warmth of your presence enveloping me –
how strange it is, after years of coldness.
Sometimes I wish to hug you tight,
to make you mine –
to kiss you, to love you, to hold you…
as difficult as it is, I know I will.
I've had to face a lot of harshness
by the hands of those who should have protected me;
it's not so easy for me to come to trust others…
so why with you is different?
I know of your pain, I've felt it too –
you may not realize it, but we have a lot in common.
For this reason I remain firm on my decision:
I'm not one to back down.
As the time no longer blends together,
from the day I first saw you coming my way,
I slowly hear the ice inside crack –
a flow of molten heat flooding in…
I've known you for a long time…
I saw you changing, growing, blooming;
I've changed and grown as well –
I've come to love you, day by day, since the first time.
I don't like sleeping when others are near:
it's too dangerous.
I'm vulnerable when I sleep – it is a danger
Yet, when you're here I don't mind it…
I like watching you sleep – peaceful and defenceless
You let me protect you like you wouldn't anyone else.
It's the only chance I have to feel you:
I'm waiting for you to be ready…
I know you want me to say something, but what?
When I'm near you my heart tries to tell me things –
maybe I'm still too afraid to understand,
but I want to put names to the feelings.
I see you standing there – don't hide your eyes
Indecision, on your face, a shadow darkening…
If you ask me, I can tell you
everything I know, I'll make you see what there is between us…
The longing to be touched – your hands
The desire to be kissed – your lips
The need to be wanted – your voice
The want to be loved – your soul
The walls lay on the floor as that light
consumes me – I'm finally alive.
The sun may be covered by the clouds but, from now on,
The only sky I look at is the one reflected into your eyes.
