Well, I was stuck on a plane for twelve hours (actually twenty-four if you include the trip back) and I decided to do some writing. I've had a bunch of poetry ideas lately so you can probably expect some more in the future. As long as school shudder doesn't get in the way too much. This particular poem takes place during the break up in the R Season and it's from Mamoru's point of view. Well, with no further ado, here's the poem.
Sadly, I don't own Sailor Moon or any of the characters. Stupid copyright laws.
No More
"I can't see you anymore," I said
Though it pained my heart to say.
It's not that I don't love you.
It's that I love you too much
To see you die.
I dare not tell you the visions that haunt my dreams
For I know you would not care.
You would want to continue to be with me
Despite the consequence.
I cannot bear to look at you
And see your tear filled eyes.
Sadness never suited your happy face.
But every time I see you
And so very full of grief
The first thing that I think of is that it was me
Who caused your smile to disappear.
You should be the last of people to be absent of a smile.
Whenever you are around
I wish I could just hold you,
But then I remember the images
Burned into my brain like hot coal.
So I run away.
Away from your love.
Away from your kindness.
Away from the tiny slice of happiness that I have ever known.
Each step I take from you
Is another knife in my heart
But then I remember that running is easier
Than losing you to the icy grip of death.
I love you so much
And I want you to live
No matter how it tears me up inside.
You have so much to give to this world
And I won't allow you to leave it.
You mean so much to me
Therefore I have to let you go
And ignore my selfish needs.
I love you more than anything
And that's why I can't see you again.
Well, that's it. Hope you enjoyed it but either way, let me know. Flames are encouraged. As usual, virtual cookies and ice cream to anyone who reviews.
