*Disclaimer: Ayashi no Ceres does not belong to me.
Author's Note:
A poem reflecting Shiso's thoughts on Ceres. For some reason, this poem just came to me on a Monday night at 10:30 PM (while I was trying to sleep). *Sigh* My muse must be really out if it…Misunderstood

Long flowing hair
Black as a raven's wing
Translucent, golden eyes
Now cold and unpitying.
My heart pounds against my chest
When I think about you.
I want to feel your touch
Your skin against mine
Your lips against mine
Your eyes on my eyes
Our souls as one.
Why can't you understand
This love that I feel?
Why don't you share my desire, my pain?
Because you are a daughter of Heaven?
Ethereal, divine
Heart of ice, emotions of stone
And I, but a son of Earth
A mere mortal.
But don't you remember
The happy days we shared?
When I held you safe in my arms?
Perhaps I had been wrong
To take the hagoromo
Robe of white feathers
Key to the sky
Perhaps I had been wrong
To think you would love me…
Many men want to make you theirs
But none will succeed
None will triumph
As long as I am here
I won't give up without a fight
And I will win you back…
…Ceres.
Author's Note:
My first Ayashi no Ceres "fic." Not to mention my first shot at free-verse poems. Constructive criticism welcome.
