A Wish
A simple wish:
"I want to go home."
The destination seems
so far away.
It should have been easy,
a straight path.
Distance did not matter,
as long as I kept the destination in mind.
But then the rains came,
the root of all my hardships.
of my delay.
I miss the familiar trees
around my home, the lakes, the streams
and even the cliffs.
But most of all,
I miss my family,
my friends,
my sense of belonging.
Amidst all the hardships, my wish remains
but now I start to wonder,
can it be granted?
Random Notes: I realize this poem was a bit obscure but I seem to like to write my poems that way... I apologize. Anyways, I wrote this one for Kurogane, back when his only wish was to get home. The part about his family and friends may not seem to fit but when I wrote that I was thinking of his past and his loyalty to Princess Tomoyo.
Alternate/sub titles I played with: "A Ninja's Wish" or "A Soldier's Wish"
Disclaimer: I do not own Kurogane. Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle is not my creation that right belongs to CLAMP.
