I decided this, in honor of Inulover4eva, I shall make a series of one-shots, drabbles and all the sorts, in this random story.

The pairings will mainly consist of KiraxCagalli, I mean come on people, is there any other better couple? I might put in some AsuCaga from time to time, just to tame you wild beasts, but that's all.

Disclaimer: Don't own nothing, not even this random poem haha. Oh! and Inulover4eva picked out the poem and gave me an idea of where to go with this, so basically, she wrote this. I promise I'll do my own work afterwards hah.

Never Again

He's walking away from me.
His back is tense, and I know he's angry with me.
I suppose he's got a right to be angry.
He's looking back at me now with that look in his eyes.
The look that says I've disappointed him again.
I know I'm a coward for not even trying.
He's been waiting twenty years,
and I can't even try.

Kira…Kira…Kira…What am I to do? Your look breaks me, makes me cry. After we commit our sin and slate our lust, only to need more again after finishing, why do we continue to have these 'meetings' why do we continue to cheat, not only on them, but with ourselves?

He's getting in his mobile suit,
Heading back to that empty place he calls home.
Soon I'll have to go back to my own empty life,
and wait for the next time we can see each other again.
It's not so different from what we've done for the last two decades.
Except, I have this awful feeling that something's going to happen.
This feeling is so over powering,
making it hard to breathe.

I could never breathe as I watch you walk away, my throat stuck, my pride hurt. I could never breathe as you slam into me time after time, my eyes shut , my body hurt. I could never breathe as you try to say you love me, my back turned, my heart hurt.

Every second takes him
further and further away from me.
I want to go after him.
I want to beg him to stay
and never leave my side.
Why couldn't I just tell him what he wanted to hear?
Why couldn't I just tell him I love him?

You know I do, so why should I say to you, the same words I confess to him, words you and I know are untrue, words you and I know, should only represent how you feel for me, how I feel for you.

Instead, I say nothing.
I do nothing.
I just stand and watch him disappear,
not having the courage to call him back.

I watch you go out to war again, the veteran you are, my political power in no way able to help, to prevent you from leaving again. You come to me each time before, instead of her, whom sings you to sleep every night, harboring all your pain. Pain from war, pain from killing, pain from not being with me, and yet you still come to me, as our connection is undeniable, unforgettable, so attractable.

If Only I could tell you how much I loved you through words…but then again, you already know don't you?

A tear runs down my cheek.
Somehow, I know,
deep in my soul,

I may have him by my side through marriage, but you are the one in my heart. I may have council members by my side for this country, but you are what keep me standing up. I may have you in my arms every once in awhile, but you are the one I cannot keep.

I will never
See Kira again.

So please, don't leave me, don't leave me here all alone, without you I am nothing, without you…
