Author's Note: Hey, I wrote this in my free time between exams about two weeks ago and decided to post it. My computer was throwing a tantrum and decided to mess up the formatting so I just put lines between each section/verse. Yes; it's another poem. What can I say, I love poems. Tell me what you think; even if that is that you hate it. :)

Did I mention I have friends now; we're meeting up for the first time in a week. See you there?

You won't see me; but I'll see you,

One final time after all I put you through,

Archaic hindrances prevent me from being at your side,

That and the fact that I frequently lied,

You cannot forgive me thanks to those events,

My bullets left more than physical dents.

Taking your life wasn't easy,

And yes dear I know that sounds cheesy,

For once what I say is true,

I'm not as callous as you thought you knew,

But Neku; you were the perfect proxy,

With your spiked hair as orange as a foxy,

Your antisocial behaviour and your withdrawn life,

Was the prime example of Shibuya's strife,

Looking at you; I knew I found a winner,

By the way dear could you be any thinner?

On that first day; I watched you pair up with that girl,

The one who's bubbly attitude made me want to hurl.

I watched you fight the noise,

With your grace and your poise.

Watched you cast away your shell,

Watched as your defences fell.

She brought you back to the living,

Taught you about giving.

As she changed you; you changed her,

Stopped her when she started to deter.

That is why I gave her back her existence,

Because of her persistence.

Week two,

I couldn't help but join you.

Originally, I had intended to have my fun then leave,

But the thought of leaving my dear Nekky made me grieve,

An unexpected factor that was undeniably not pretend;

Was that, yes dear, you considered me a friend.

Our friendship voluntary by no means,

Since we were both stubborn teens,

Flowered into a connection so true,

I hated the thought of lying to you.

Yet we bonded; grew to understand one another,

Until we relied on each other.

As all good things must end,

So must our companionship be impossible to mend.

Minamimoto made me a martyr in your eyes,

Even though my death was another in my stream of frequent lies.

I wished I could have watched over you,

But I had other matters to attend to.

I became acquainted with another you,

He was clearly infatuated with me too,

Hehe, don't worry dear; we had some fun,

He continues to play tin pin with his Yoshiya-kun,

Who would have known that another hero;

Would turn out to be an emo?

Now we reach the final showdown,

The climactic battle for the fate of the town,

You expected to see Mr H instead,

But it was all in your head,

All along the great antagonist you sought to replace,

Was an all too familiar face.

You seemed so ecstatic to see me,

Ah, the wise thing to have done was to flee.

Megumi was swiftly dispatched,

Thanks to the foiled plan he had hatched.

Separated from your partners the entry fees were taken,

Yours was interesting if I'm not mistaken...

So the stage is set for the final duel,

I may say it was slightly cruel.

There we stood armed; alone,

A breath from death to determine the throne,

The look in your eyes showed me the truth,

Undeniable proof...

You cared.

You cared whether or not I died,

After everything you denied.

After a life and death of loneliness,

You showed me the light in the emptiness.

An eternity of being second in line,

Finally the spotlight is mine.

Now I know I may sound vain,

Much to my disdain,

But being alone makes you crave attention,

It occurs with no prevention.

Thank you dear for giving me salvation,

Tearing me away from dilapidation.

The tears you cried stained your cheeks,

An image that has haunted me for weeks.

You could not end the life of a friend,

Even though you hated me in the end.

The betrayal that loomed in your eyes,

As well as the quivering that echoed through your thighs.

I finish my counting - fire the shot,

Your blood pooling in a crimson blot.

The reprise of your death was easier than before,

Now that I knew you more.

From you strong spirit I could derive,

That there was no doubt that you would survive.

The noise would not enrapture your soul,

You could return to play your role.

You saved me; so I saved you,

It was the least I could do.

So here we are at the final cross roads,

All actors in our play; burdened with heavy loads.

None more terrifying than the one ahead of me,

Alone in the Underground for all eternity.

I am used to the acrid aroma of alienation,

It comes with the job of running a nation.

I do not regret neutralising your days,

In fact you should congratulate me on eradicating your depressive haze.

You have learned to live by being dead,

You have found a new path to tread.

Good luck my dear,

You have nothing to fear,

Never will you and I meet,

Though I will watch you wander down the street.

I must atone for my deeds,

I know not where my destiny leads.

I do not fear my demise,

It took a long time to realise,

Having no one there -

Led me to my despair.

But you showed me the worth of living,

But for me there is no forgiving.

Goodbye; farewell,

I'm off down my everlasting stair-well - diving down toward a familiar eternity of solitude,

That I cannot find the heart to allude,

For if I do; you will surely pay for my crimes,

Because I did not follow the lines.

Now my reign has come to an end,

Goodbye Neku; my one and forever friend.

Well, I hope you enjoyed it. Joshua is my favourite character in TWEWY. (Just ask my friends. He he.) Before I forget: I should be updating Wonderland Ends with You on Wednesday. It's just taking me a while!
