Sakura's Poem
He was my best friend.
He was my only friend.
My only true friend.
I understand now. All the times you called me weak, all the times you called me annoying. It was all because you cared.
You wanted me to be stronger. And because I was so obsessed with you, I never could be.
I lost my only other friend because of you. No, because of me. Because of my love for you.
You told me I was weak. And I was.
You tried so hard to make me stop loving you and become stronger.
You even went as low as to call me annoying. To insult me, to hurt me. But it didn't work.
You had no other choice but to leave.
You used the excuse it was to avenge your clan. To kill your brother.
I said I would become stronger and help you defeat him, but you saw through my lies.
You left me on a park bench, with tears in both of our eyes.
But now I know.
Seven years after you left and only two weeks after your death, I figured it out.
Soon your funeral will take place. After many arguments, you were choosen to be honored as a loyal shinobi.
I will leave this letter on your grave, and hope you know I understand.
And guess what, it worked.
I became stronger. I'm no longer obsessed with you.
I'm finally getting sleep at night, knowing you cared.
I don't wait at the village gates for hours a day, waiting for you to come back home.
My tears have stopped falling.
And it's all thanks to you.
So Thank You, Sasuke.
My wishes came true.
