Make it stop

The madness, the pain, the injustice

Silence the screams, shrieks, and lament cries

My heart breaks with each tear I see you shed

This insanity is all to familiar

Yet so foreign when I see it on your face

The anguish, the sadness

But what hurts the most, is knowing

The one who made you this way

Was me.

I turn away

Not wanting to see the truth

Staring right in front of me

All I touch, all I love

Seems to turn to ash

Just by my touch

And you are just

Something else that has been burned

By cursed touch

You call my name

Trying to make me come back

But I can't

For I know the longer I stay

The more you will be burned.

I know this these words will make you hurt

Almost as much as me

But Goodbye Kaoru

This is my first submission so I'm still a little bit green on this kind of stuff and it was stir of the moment. It's supposed to be in Kenshin's point of view talking about Kaoru. I guess it would take place when Kenshin was saying goodbye to Kaoru when he had to leave for Kyoto. Be Honest and tell me what you think. It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
