The poems of Rurouni Kenshin characters

Koaru's poem

~*The Soul I can not release*~

The wind has stolen my heart as did
The one I love...
I wonder who he really is,
Or is he just a dream?
Cupid should just take the piss for
I can't bear my soul
My heart weeps when I see him hurt I wish I could protect him but I can not for the like the iris I might die
without my heart emptied of the
Feelings for him that I possess...
My heart weeps as he leaves my sight
I hate it when he treats me like a child
I hate it when he leaves
I hate most of all, that stupid fact
That I can not bear my soul to you
Without tears in my eyes
Because you don't love me the way I
Love you, at least... I don't think you do... but fear holds me, binds me, and casts its shadow
on my heart. Now you know of the heart I can never bear, the soul that
covers my mouth when I try to tell you,
I
Love you...
always and forever.
