Author's notes: Okay this is my first try at poetry. DO NOT
laugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I did hide behind my anger
'Cause love couldn't be my sword

I pushed you away
While I tried to pull you forward

Hate was my weapon
While anger was my shield

But you ripped through my defenses
Took the sword I was to wield

I was afraid to let you in
Lest it hurt when you walked out

But what was I to do?
You had me flailing like trout

I don't want to be alone
And I don't want to be afraid

Love is like some bloody war
Or violent masquerade

I don't want to be a part of it
I want to be let out

It seems my heart has different
Ideas of what love is about

I'll wait for you forever
Don't you dare forget

And all try to prepare
For what I am to get

Author's notes: That is my first beautiful poem. ;) Akane-obsessed
