Hello once again! These are the poems that I asked about; they're not really as good as others because I'm not much of a poem writter. The idea just wouldn't leave me alone! Anyway, I was going to post these after I was finished with Master of Mistakes but some stuff happened and I won't get to update that one for quite a while. These are sort of my way of an apology for the long wait to come. Please enjoy!

Mixed Feelings-Part one

When we first started out on your journey,

I had no idea how it would change me.

I started to feel, to think, to see that maybe it would be okay to let people in, to love.

Especially you.

You made me feel so strange, a way I hadn't before.

It made my heart race, but not like it does when I draw my sword.

You made me want to see you smile and laugh like you did on the riverbank.

You made me ache when you hugged him and not me.

You made my heart rip to peices when I saw you bleed and be tortured for my mistakes.

You made me want to throw my life away in order for you to live.

When you left me and went your own way,

I knew I'd probably never see you again.

But that was okay as long as I wasn't there.

You made me have friends, almost a family.

I hate it but I like it, too.

I could never tell you the truth because you are my weakness.

You would think I hated you and so you would be safe.

From me.

Part two

You always look at me like I am a child.

And that you hate me because I'm kind to you.

I try to hate you in return but for some reason I can't.

It's because you're always the first to save me.

You make me feel as though I can do anything and I am invincible.

I don't want this feeling to go away, but I know that one day it will because you won't stay.

You're too wild, too carefree to stay here with me.

If I told you to stay you'd probably think I was selfish.

If I told you my feelings for you, you'd say I was foolish and desperate.

That's why I will never be able to let you go.

I am a coward in a world that lives off fear.

I want you back so badly.

Maybe if I cry hard enough you'll come back and save me again.

A/N: Okay! Review please! Once again I am apologizing about the wait that you will have to endure. I don't know how long it will take me to be able to update. Anyway, I didn't state who the pairing is but it's pretty self explanitory. Tell me what you think!
