All That's Left
I can still remember how he smelled
I can still remember how he looked at me.
How we fought and loved so strangely.
Oh, how we loved.
We shared, but a kiss
Before we were torn apart by time.
So here I stand on one side of a wooden well.
Hoping and praying that I will see the one I love
Just one more time,
Just one more kiss
One more smile.
Please, just one more...
I spent each day the same.
I would work and come home
To a hollow feeling and a dark shadow
Looming over me from the sacred tree.
Letting me know everyday
That what I had was real, but not anymore.
It has been years. So many years
It has felt like an eternal punishment.
Limping through life, hoping for a miracle.
I hoped that immortality was on my side,
But it seems that life isn't that fair.
Because no man with golden eyes came for me.
Not any more.
So now I stand beneath the scarred tree.
It resembles the heart that I still might have.
Mother and Grandfather have long been gone.
My nieces and nephews are grown now.
Yet I am still waiting.
Hoping and praying.
A weathered hand brushes the wood
That once led me to the one I love.
It has lost its power
It has severed my way back
My way back home.
One last time.
One last time I wish
That I could see him.
To love him
With all that is left.
Before it is too late...
A/N: so this is in Kagome's POV and it is in a universe where the well doesn't open back up and she is stuck in the future.
