Disclaimer: I only own my words ): and Kaoru needs some love.

Author's Note: I imagine Hikaru and Kaoru going down this narrow windy path and meet a fork road. They did everything together, be it life or death (I'm quite sure if they had a will they will find a way to manipulate death) but will Haruhi separate them, finally?


It's not a shame to feel lonely.

For even in a crowd, I feel it – this dense dread that overwhelms me.

It is no crime to be alone and I am fine by myself.

Isn't all that matter just you and me?


There is no space in your heart for me, where it used to be.

I cannot fight her for I am spent.

I may not live as well as I could without you but I know I will breathe again.

And one day you will see that your best bet was me.


I gave you all to make you happy,

And yet my reward is the shadow of your retreating back.

A stab in my face and you twist the knife deeper.

I have seen the light - she is nothing but a fading reverie of the rainbow.


It doesn't matter what they think of strange old me,

For in the end, we all die alone.

So there really is no point in trying to fight this suffocating oppression.

Maybe, sometimes it's better to let go.


I won't hold on to you anymore.

I had enough of brutalizing myself in your name.

I will break free from your reigns.

And find myself, once again.


In my rebirth, I will be new again.

And I will not walk down your tattered path, ridden in my blood and sweat.

I will show the world that I am better off without you.

Maybe then, the tears will stop falling.


Pardon my bad poetry (:
