Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, just this poem.

Now I Know

"Sakura. Thank-you."

Maybe I'm too impatient

Maybe it's just me

Maybe it's selfish But just maybe,

Maybe I finally know what everyone else did

--

Now I know that I am getting tired of this

Now I know that it isn't just me

Now I know that it's you that was selfish

Now I know what everyone else has always known

--

Today I'll let go

Today I'll be stronger

Today I'm not afraid

Because today, I no longer love

--

I really have you to thank, though

But there are some things that just seem to be amiss

I'm not quite sure what it is

But I know that I'll find out

--

I left yesterday

All in search of you and my answer

I keep asking myself why?

I mean I don't love you

--

I met with a man today

He seemed to know you

You really are similair

I wonder who he is

I learned his first name

No family or clan name though...

--

It's been 3 years since I met that man

I discovered his last name years ago

This is the man you wanted to kill

But I just can't leave him

He reminds me too much of you

--

I discovered yesterday

I still am in love with you

I saw you fight the man

The man you promised to kill

--

I did something I really shouldn't have

I stopped him from killing you

But I paid a great price;

I stopped him with my life

--

Even as I die and I know I'm about to

You stand there with your stoic face

You say I'm annoying,

How many times have I heard that from you?

I think I've lost count

--

Through all of this

I think I've just figured out what I'm missing

I never knew what I wanted exactly

--

Now I know I care

Now I know I love you

Now I know what I want

I just want for you to be happy

And for that, I'll give my life

--

So I quote you as I leave this earth

My time being up,

Even though you probably won't remember

And wouldn't know why if you did

"Sasuke-kun... Thank-you."

Because of you I can die in peace and know I still love with my last breath
