Look At Me Now

by Metro-phaze

Thinking of his loving mother, Kyo is neglected and writes a poem to his mother, expressing his feelings. His mother will never get the letter, but it frees Kyo of guilt and sadness...Kyo's POV. This is a poem.

Dear Mother,

You were once a lovable one

Until you changed and had a son

Always you faked your glee

Always you hated me

I monstrous being I was when I smiled

A pitiful mother you were all the time

You could never stand the sight of me

Always I was isolated from the family

I thought a mother would love her son

I thought I was your wonderful one

If I were to drown in the dangerous sea,

Possibly could you again be happy?

Maybe you and I don't agree

But a mother in you

Is what I want to see.

Always you hated your life so dull

You hated your son, the animal.

If I turned away, I know you'd attack

But you don't know the pain

Of a cursed zodiac.

I don't believe your words anymore

Like the "I love you's" you continue to pour.

Give me more of the doggone lies

I know it's me

you truly despise.

You say I'm special

I'm one of a kind

You know those words

Will rot my mind.

I hope you know

When I'm confined

Always will be you

That's on my mind.

Even when you faked it

And hated me too

I want you to know

I'll always love you.

When you saw me as a monster

And used me like a toy

I'm always behind you

As your wonderful little boy.

And now that you've left

And will never see me again

You were my role model

My one special friend.

Though you'll never get this awful letter

Since you've been gone

I've been much better.

Look down from the heavens

And look at me, Mom.

I still miss you so

Love Kyo, your son.
