I always felt kind of sorry for Kikyo. I still want Kagome and Inuyasha to be together in the end, but Kikyo has a sad fate, collecting sorrowful souls. This is her song.


Darkness Lady

Borne
from Hell's deep fires
My eyes drink in shards of life
Silver droplets roll off my skin

I step forward
and banish feeble light
from my path,
beckon, corrupted bodies–

Black tendrils fall about me
to envelope those most stricken;
Wounded hearts yearn for my grace
And gladly,

I shall sweep them up
and end their pain and strife
But for me, my life is not–
no Lady weeps for me

For I am She.
