Reflections
Disclaimer: No, I do not own Rurouni Kenshin. If you think I do, you might want a reality check.
A/N: Yes, I know this is horrible, and probably terribly inaccurate. Yes, I know that Kenshin's eyes are also amber, but that's beside the point! Actually, I just couldn't find something to rhyme with amber. Sad, huh?
I look into his misty violet eyes,
He smiles serenely, but at night
I hear his lonely, wailing cries
For when he could not see what was right.
He smiles at me, but I know
From the things he does not say
The hidden secrets he will not show
And the countless people he has slayed.
Sometimes, I wish he would tell me
Just a little more about himself,
But I know the present is the key
To learn what's hidden on the dusty shelf
I see a glimpse once in a while,
When violet turns to red
And the past comes back to light,
The glowing fire I thought was dead.
