I don't own Inuyasha
She walks to school with the lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holdin' back
7 year old Kagome Higurashi walked slowly to school silently sobbing and climbed the steps to the front door.
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises behind the linen and lace
Kagome tugged at the white jacket that she wore over her yellow dress with flowers on it. "Hey Kagome, are you poor? Because you wore that dress yesterday." some kids sneered laughing.
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
It's so hard to see the pain behind the mask
Kagome's teacher Miss Kaede noticed a bruise on Kagome's cheek as she was walking around the room looking at all the writings that her students did on their weekend but Kagome's paper was blank.
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she were never born
Kagome held back tears. 'It's my fault I was born. Not Daddy's. If I wasn't born Daddy wouldn't be mad' Kagome thought.
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
Kagome sat on a bench during recess under a large tree letting her tears fall. Then a boy with silver hair and a bandana walked up to her. "Hi, I'm Inuyasha. What's your name?" the boy asked. Kagome wiped away her tears and looked up. "Kagome." she answered.
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel
"Kagome, do you have dreams?" Inuyasha asked. "Yeah. I want to be free." Kagome answered. Then the bell rang and everyone headed inside.
Somebody cries in the middle of the night
The neighbors hear but they turn out the lights
Kagome found out Inuyasha lived next door and they started talking. Inuyasha's mom told him to turn off the light. "Ok mom. Just let me say good night to my friend." Inuyasha called. When he turned to face Kagome's window Kagome's dad burst into Kagome's room and yelled at her for talking to Inuyasha. Inuyasha watched in horror as Kagome got beat. Then her dad threw Kagome across the room and she went limp. "Mom!" Inuyasha yelled. "Inuyasha, it was fate. She's safe now." Inuyasha's mom told him.
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
By morning it will be too late
Inuyasha's mom called 911 and Kagome's dad was arrested. The ambulance tried to revive Kagome but it was useless.
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
Inuyasha looked at Kagome's lifeless body as the paramedics carried her out of the house when it started to rain. Tears ran down Inuyasha's cheeks as he hugged his mom.
In a world she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
"Why?' Inuyasha asked his mom. "It was fate." his mom answered. "I hope her dreams turn to her wings." Inuyasha told his mom.
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete Angel
"Kagome, I'll miss you." Inuyasha whispered.
A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel with an upturned face
Inuyasha bought a little angel smiling. "Why is she smiling?" his mom asked. "Because she's free." he answered
A name is written on a polished rock
A fragile soul the world forgot
Inuyasha stood in front of everyone at Kagome's funeral and smiled at her tombstone
Kagome Higurashi
1995-200
RIP
Then he walked through the crowd like a ghost
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
Kagome and Inuyasha smiled and hugged each other. "You were already dead?" Kagome asked. "Yeah. I had to watch over you till you died." Inuyasha said.
In a world she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete Angel
"Time to go." Inuyasha told her as a brilliant golden light appeared. "Grandma!" Kagome exclaimed. "Come on." Inuyasha smiled as he grabbed her hand and they went into the light.
The End
A/N: To all the abused children in the world who couldn't be saved. RIP.
