Goodbye…

This is a poem that I wrote at about 4:30 in the morning when I couldn't get to sleep.  It's supposed to be a poem dealing with Syaoran leaving Sakura, but it could be for any couple of any amine, or no anime at all!

The world is dark, I see no light

But a little spark, burning bright

That little spark began to glow

And from that spark flames started to grow

I tried to keep the fire inside

But to one I failed to hide

Just that one led to many another

But I feel this fire will never smother

So now I learn I have to leave

This little fire I shall take with me

Through darkness and hate it penetrated

The feeling of love leaves my heart elated

I have to tell her, the fire burns

To escape from captivity it yearns

I lead her to a secret place

And feel my heart begin to race

She looks at me, eyes shining bright

And at that moment, I held no fright

I poured out my heart, my life, my soul

In hopes that she would take it as hers

So now she knows, she seems confused

Yet I'll have to leave her very soon

I lean over for my first and last kiss

And know this is a moment I'll never miss

Our lips part, yet mine feel cold

My breath, it quickens, out of control

My mind feels fuzzy but I manage to speak

My eyes are glazed, my knees feel weak

I wrap my arms around her as she cries on my shoulder

And at this moment, I can do nothing but hold her

The taxi horn sounds, I'll have to hurry

But I do not want her to worry

She understands me and takes a step back

I hear her voice beginning to crack

"I'll wait for you if you wait for me"

Were the last words I heard of her  voice so sweet

"I love you" I say, as I head for my cab

She doesn't follow, just stands, looking sad

The cab pulls away as her figure diminishes

Seeing her again will definitely be one of my wishes

End
