I could smell the salted tears even before they began to break through the dam of her eyes. I stood there wondering why this beautiful maiden was shedding these precious droplets. Her raven black hair damp with the gentle rain and the porcelain face marred by the blood of the limp silver haired body held closely against her breast. 'Was this my body that she's holding?' I wondered as I gazed at her. I wanted to be closer to her, to tell her that everything was going to be alright and desperately remove the offending tears that trailed down her face. An overwhelming sense of peace encompassed my body as the maiden turned her tear stained face towards me.
"Kagome……Koi please don't ever forget me. I promise I will always be by your side my Angel" I whispered as I knelt towards her, gently brushing my lips to hers.
"Inuyasha….it's time to leave."
The last and final memory that I had of this life was of her gentle smile, telling me that it was okay, before I ascended towards to heavens.
Ho...
Hey...ey...ey...ey...
N-n-n-n-no, no
That day I watched her bury my body under the boughs of Goshinboku with the Shikon no Tama. I watched the tears cascade down from her soft chocolate brown eyes as she sat there saying her goodbyes, Souta clinging to her for dear life. I hurt my heart knowing that I was the cause of that deep sorrow and I could do nothing. With the gentle breeze blowing her dark tresses she looked up towards my favorite branch. For a brief moment while our eyes met I saw that familiar sparkle.
"Inuyasha….." she whispered.
It's been too long and I'm lost without you
So what am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you,
wantin' you
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes
I miss you
Each morning I gazed at her as she kissed the picture of us, wishing that my lips were really touching hers. I watched from the boughs of the Sacred Tree as she reclaimed her life, fighting against the pain and sorrow; each and every moment more precious to me then the last as I watched her grow up in front of me.
Off to college, yes, you went away
Straight from high school you up and left me
We were close friends, also lovers
Did everything for one another
Now you're gone and I'm lost without you here now
But I know I gotta live and make it somehow
Always a spectator never a participant was what I was in her life, but I didn't mind I was still a part of it. It was from these branches that looked upon her as her family celebrated her graduation from college. That sparkle that I fell in love with lit her eyes from within, however the pain still lingered. I stood by her side everyday as she sat at my grave talking to me, telling me everything that she was doing, with her knees drawn to her chest. I stood as a silent sentry listening to her every word, it was these moments that I cherished more then anything.
Come back to me (To me)
Can you feel me (Callin')
Hear me callin' for you (For you)
'Cause it's
It's been too long and I'm lost without you
So what am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you,
wantin' you (Woo...ooh...ooh...)
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes
'Happy Birthday….Kagome.' I thought once again occupying to branches of the Goshinboku, watching the party. She had flourished beyond anything anybody thought possible, had a successful career, and now she had a family to call her own. My heart retched as I played witness to the ceremony, but I knew my beautiful Angel was happy. That was also the year I was granted another soul to guide, Kagome's first born, Yukiko.
Now I'm sittin' here thinkin' 'bout you
And the days we used to share
It's drivin' me crazy, I don't know what to do
I'm just wonderin' if you still care
And I wanna let you know that it's killin' me
I know you got another life, you gotta concentrate,
baby
The days turned to years as I guided Yukiko and Kagome, watching as my two beautiful Angels grew with each change of the season. I laughed as Yukiko's first words came to pass and her first days of school slipped away. I wondered if she still remembered me, remembered the times that we shared all those long years ago. One day surprised me as I listened to an eleven year old Yukiko.
'Mommy?'
'Yes Yukiko?'
'Can Inuyasha play with me?'
My eyes met with the sad and tearful chocolate brown ones as they gazed up towards my favorite spot in the branches. I watched as she shook her head, her eyes never leaving mine.
'Thank You, Inuyahsa'
Come back to me (To me)
Can you feel me (Callin')
Hear me callin' for you (For you)
'Cause it's
It's been too long and I'm lost without you
So what am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you,
wantin' you (Baby)
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes
I miss you
The years turned to decades as the two women in my ghostly life grew to new heights. The color of her hair changed with the delicate hands of time to a soft gray highlighted by the strands of black. It broke my heart to watch the once taught skin be marred by age but never did the twinkle in the eyes of her youth fade.
It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, I've been needing you, wantin' you
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes (Yeah)
I miss you
I-I-I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I
I miss you
I-I-I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I-I-I
I can't (I) wait no (No more) more (No)
Since you went away
I don't really feel like talkin' (No)
Don't wanna hear them bug me (No, no)
Tell me do you understand me
I can't do but be without you
Watching my Angel all these years as her body turned frail against her wishes brought the salted weakness to my eyes threatening to overflow. It was in this year that I knelt beside her as she said her goodbye to my grave, asking that she rest next to me so that our souls be together always as it should have been. I knew that soon she would be with me and I could wrap my arms around her once again.
It's been too long and I'm lost without you (Now tell
what I'm gonna)
What am I gonna do, I've been needin' you, wantin' you
(Yeah)
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine (Yeah, yeah), I wanna cry
sometimes (Ooh...)
I miss you (Baby)
It's been too long and I'm lost without you (Oh, no,
no, no)
So what am I gonna do, I've been needin' you, wantin'
you (Whoa)
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
(Hey...)
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes (Oh,
no, baby)
I stood over her as she slept peacefully, her gentle face showing no worries or fears. I held the frail hand as I brushed away the errant strands of graying hair from her visage, knowing that soon my Angel would return home. With one last kiss I placed her hand back in its place as her breathing became nonexistent, letting those that loved her say goodbye. For the last time I stepped into the light waiting for my Kagome to arrive from her eternal slumber.
I miss you
It's been too long (Oh, yeah) and I'm lost without you
So what am I gonna do (No, no) I've been needin' you,
wantin' you (Baby)
Wonderin' if you're the same and who's been with you
Is your heart still mine, I wanna cry sometimes
I smiled as I stepped out from the light to see her, my beautiful Angel, dressed in an ethereal white kimono with pink sakura blossoms and a lavender obi, her raven hair and chocolate brown eyes reminding me of our journeys so long ago. I wrapped her in my arms once again breathing in her scent of lilac, spring rain, and vanilla. Kami how I had waited for this moment as I ran a clawed hand through her soft tresses; as I did so she pulled back to stare into the depths of my eyes.
'Inuyasha……where am I?'
'In Heaven……home, koi, you're home' and with that I surrendered my lips to hers as the soothing light took over us.
