The bright moon is shining, I think of you
And all of the things that we've been through.
That dark, fateful night that changed my life
The sting of the blade, as sharp as a knife.
The monsters kept coming, from shadows and more
Attacking the innocent, the rich and the poor.
I vowed to protect them; you stood by my side,
I heard your heart breaking when I nearly died.
I missed your presence as it faded to white,
So I started my training, to conquer, to fight.
I entered your world and made my way through
And wouldn't give up until I found you.
And when I did, it was just like old times,
Like before I knew you committed a crime.
When I woke up, you were gone,
And I trained even harder, from dusk until dawn.
I swore to my soul, the next time we met
I'd set you free, and settle my debt.
So I flew through the sky to stop your death
And the sight of you stole my breath.
I felt so much pain, an intense infliction.
I had to stop your crucifixion.
And that I did, just in time
I looked at your eyes, as you did mine.
You scolded me harshly to send me away,
But I wasn't leaving, I was there to stay.
I destroyed it all with you in my arm
And 'tossed' you to safety, you were unharmed.
I finally did it, but over, it was not.
I had to make sure you wouldn't get caught.
I fought off your brother and let out a shout
But learned a stronger enemy was lurking about.
And there you were on top of that hill
And my heart stopped beating, my blood stood still.
I tried to protect you, but quickly I fell.
If this was heaven, then what was hell?
The bloodshed continued, and then he took you
To remove that cursed hogyoku.
You let out a scream and fell to your knees,
I prayed you were alive, please oh please.
But you were still with me, what a relief.
But the man got away, and caused too much grief.
A few days went by; it was time to go home.
But I couldn't find you, only one place to go.
When you spoke, you sounded so sad
Almost as if you thought I'd be mad.
You wanted to stay, I understood.
I held back the sadness as best as I could.
We said our goodbyes, such a bittersweet end.
I'll never forget you, my violet eyed friend.
I'm back in my world, but the monsters still come.
A soul reapers work is never done.
So I'll pick up this sword and I will fight
Against all evil, protect what's right
And keep you close inside my heart.
So far away, yet never apart.
