Kagome sat, leaning against a log.
She looked around, watching the rest of the group sleep soundly.
Even InuYasha was asleep.
'I wonder what he's dreaming about.' Kagome said quietly, to herself.
Hands touch,
Eyes meet
Kagome watched sadly as the hanyou shifted in his sleep.
Sudden silence
Sudden heat
He's probably not dreaming about me, she thought.
Hearts leap
in a giddy whirl
He looks so peaceful. I remember when he looked like that when Kikyou-
He could be that boy,
But I'm not that girl.
Kagome sighed.
Dont dream, too far
Don't loose sight of
who you are
I can remember when he looked almost like that when he was awake.
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
But he was looking through me to Kikyou
I'm not that girl
I wonder what would have happened if he was looking at me.
Every so often we long to steal
the land of what might have been
But still, he doesn't love me. He loves Kikyou.
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel when reality sets
back in
I'm not the Kikyou that he loves.
Blithe smile,
lithe limb,
She who's win some
she wins him
I'm no beauty.
gold hair
with a gentle curl
He chose her, not me. A single tear ran down her cheek.
That's the girl he chose,
and heaven knows,
I'm not that girl.
I wish he would choose me. But where does that leave Kikyou?
Dont wish
dont start
wishing only
wounds the heart
Another tear ran down, followed by another and another.
I wasn't born for the rose and pearl.
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl.
Kagome rolled away from him and cried herself to sleep.
