If you want to say how much this sucks, then scream it to your wall. I don't want to hear about it. However, constructive critism is appreciated.

If someone asked me what is there left on earth worth living for, my answer would be your smile.
If there was something I couldn't live without, that would be the love.

The love between us. Our song. Our duet.

Before meeting you, I didn't know what warmth was.
Before meeting you, I never knew what 'love' was.
Everyday would be the same; painful, following strict rules and regulations.
Sometimes I didn't even know why I exist, or if there was a point to my existence.
Sometimes I just want to disappear, leaving this meaningless life behind me.

But then you appeared.

"Konoka-ojousama...", I addressed.
"Secchan! Don't call me that!"
"Then...is Kono-chan okay?"
You nodded and flashed that smile again.
Warmth embraced me.

You, the one who I look forward to seeing every day, seeing your innocent face makes my day so much brighter.
With that cute smile on your face, you suddenly barge into my life, interrupting my usual routine, lighting up the darkness of my life.
And even though I will bring you trouble and danger, you don't mind at all.
We walked the path of life together. Hand in hand.

Your love becomes a part of me, a part that I don't deserve to have.

This brightness cleans my soul, washing away any traces of evil, uncertainty in my heart, transforming it into wings of an angel that will protect you, and only you.
By then, I had formed a resolve. Even if it means that my tears and my blood will run dry and my sword becomes stained red with blood, as long as it's for you, my goddess forever, I am willing.

I was happy for once. But it didn't last long.

Our song ended abruptly.

Fate, took you away, leaving me alone to face the endless problems of life.
Death, landed upon your weak and fragile body, taking away your innocent soul.
Coldness covered your warm smile, freezing your soft and sweet lips.

But the claws dripping with your blood didn't take me.
It left me to live painfully in the days without you.

However, the past is just the past, what's happened can never be changed.

No one will lose their life just because they have lost someone close to them. I'm no different. Just because I have lost you, my heart won't stop beating. My life continues, just like it was before you came.

But it hurts. More than before.

The love that I had become accustomed to was no more. The part in my heart reserved for you became empty. The contents had been ripped out.

My heart bled. The wound never healed.
