Masks
Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon.
Hi peoples! Here's another poem. This is where Renamon wants to help Ruki out of her state of aloneness.
Some people see me as sly
And mischievous
After all I am a fox
But I'm not that way
That's just how I look
I wish I could show Ruki this
She believes only what she sees on the outside
And believes in masks
She uses one herself
She covers up all of her pain
And suffering
She believes no one cares
About her
Or what she thinks
She has fallen into a world of her own
Where masks are always used
And anger is the key to communication
She believes that the world is a terrible place
A place just waiting for hell to happen
She shuns anyone who comes near her
She believes they are only near her
Because they feel its their duty to be nice
She never thinks they want to be her friend
That they want to be nice
She believes they will start out nice
But then turn on her
Like a snake
I used to believe this too
When I was surviving in the wilderness
Of the Digital World
I wanted to be alone
Didn't want any help
After all,
It was survival of the fittest
And I aimed to be the best
Once I arrived in the real world, though,
I began to observe the inhabitants
And how they acted
It seemed that they thrived on friendship
It was part of the key to their survival
Even though some people made it worse
It was easy to see that people needed a friend
Someone to lean on
And someone to count on
Ruki needs to know this
She needs to know that she doesn't have to be alone
If only her father hadn't done what he did,
She may have been a different person today
Everything leads back to him
He left her
And her hopes failed
She was only 5
5 year-olds believe in their fathers
they count on them to be there
but hers wasn't
That led to her belief
That no one could be trusted
No matter who it was
Then when she was 10,
She found her mother's old diary
And found out the reason she existed
This caused her to become more distant
She began to hate everyone
And everything
When I arrived,
She treated me the same way
I was only her fighting pawn
But I believed in her
She said she could make me stronger
And I trusted her
I soon came to know her better
Why she was like this
And how she acted
Her other Tamers tried to be nice
Especially Takato and Jeri
(I think Takato has a crush on her)
Instead of her at least trying to be nice
She pushed them away
But they wouldn't give up
They keep on trying
Ruki knows this
Her former mask is disappearing
She knows that she's losing the fight
And will soon have to give in
I am glad
For Ruki needs a friend
Someone besides me
Then she too can learn
You don't always have to be alone
