I am a tool for him to use
He is precious to me
He gave me a home
He gave me a reason to keep going
I was an orphan
Searching in the dumpster
For food
Fighting dogs for scraps
And giving the dogs scraps
I may look delicate
But I can fight
And I am quick
I am a valuable asset
I am not Haku
I am only a tool
For him to use for his purposes
I do not question him
Nor do I expect anything from him
Warmth, love, or kindness
I give but I don't receive
I am here to protect him
I am his shield
I met a boy today
He thought I was a girl
I am only a tool
He spoke of a person
He had to get stronger than him
He had to keep training
Which is why he was sleeping
On a bed of herbs
He must have been exhausted
I had met him before
But before I did not speak to him
My face was covered
He believed I was a young boy
I am but I am only a tool
To be used by my master
I collected herbs for him to get better
He is precious to me
This person is not precious to him
He doesn't understand what I mean
What I mean by precious
I tell him but I don't know
I don't know if he understands
He only wants to beat this person
I don't want my master beaten
I leave him after collecting herbs
When I leave I tell him
I tell him I am a boy
Which is true but I am
I am only a tool for my master
I pass another boy while I walk
I walk past a brooding boy
He seems internally upset
Upset at something I don't know
I don't know if this is the person
The person the other boy told me
Was the one he had to beat
I wonder if this boy found
Found the other boy precious
Precious to him or if this boy
This boy only cared about beating
Beating the other one
Which to both it is just a contest
A contest to see who is the best
They have no sense of precious
I go back to my master's home
I tend to him and I imagine him
Him saying thank you
Thank you to me which is very odd
Very odd since to him I am
I am only a tool
