Hey this is just a little one shot poem-ish...I'm not much of a poet so it's more like Ichigo's thoughts...in verse form...Maybe that's how he thinks though...seeing as how is hero or whatever is Shakespeare and all...anyway tell me whatcha think of it...REVIEWS REVIEWS that make me SOOOOOO HAPPY! Peace OUT!

I DO NOT OWN BLEACH OR ANY OF IT'S CHARACTERS...they belong to KT...sadly...(cries) I WISH SADO-CHAN WAS MINE!!!!!!

Rukia, means a lot to me,
She gave me the strength to protect my family,
And taught me how to use that strength.
It was only right that I save her, from death.
Execution because she helped me.
I paid my debt.
I won't say that I don't care about her though,
Because she really is important.
Like Yuzu, Karin, and my dad,
Like Renji, Kenpachi, and the other soul reapers
Like Chad, Tatsuki, hell even Ishida,
But you're important too.
She may have given me the strength,
But you are the one
That I want to protect with it.

I want to protect
Your forgiving eyes
Your healing smile
Your encouraging voice
Your innocence...
I want you to continue believing
That everyone is good,
That Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny are real,
That you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
I want to shield you from death
Because I know your heart can't take it,
I want to keep you from war
Because you'd go blind.
I want to hide the evils of the world from you
Because you'd lose your mind .

You believe in me,
Why?
I let you down.
I let you get hurt.
I let you get taken.
Why
Do you continue to stay by my side?
I made you cry,
I made you scared,
I made you get in danger,
Why
Do you continue to stay by my side?
I cause you pain.
I hurt you.
Go away...GO AWAY!

I want to see your smile
And if I can't see you ever again,
Then I will.
I want to hear your laughter
And if I can't hear you ever again,
Then I will.
I want to feel your warmth
And if I can't feel you ever again,
Then I will.
Because you
Are the one who believes in me
Are the one who I want to protect
Are the one who eats leeks and bananas
Are the one who is laughing one minute and crying the next
Are...the one who...I love...Orihime
