For the love of a miko
Two lives intertwined in a quest for love, acceptance and a woman who would change their lives forever.
He was lost
Wandering in a world that didn't want him
Didn't need him
Couldn't explain his existence
So he suffered
And became the monster they thought he was
Wishing for the power to change his destiny
Just for a moment not to be. . .
Invisible
But he was empty
He knew they wanted him to die
And in time he wanted it too. . . .
He was weak
Trapped in a world that should serve him
Should want him
Couldn't explain his persistance
So he would make them suffer
And become the monster they didn't know was there
Wishing for the power to change his destiny
Just for a moment to be. . .
Invinsible
But he was imprisoned
He knew they didn't care if he died
And in time he didn't care either. . .
She was pure light
A ray of sunshine illuminating his dark world
Making him feel things
Emotions never meant for the likes of him
Companionship
Hope
Love?
Her presence warmed the heart they claimed he didn't have
Gave him back what he'd lost
His will to live
To live for her smile. . .
She was pure fire
A flicker of flame heating his ever cold existence
Making him feel things
Emotions only mean for the two of them
Lust
Hunger
Love?
Her hardened eyes captured the heart he didn't know he had
Took the one thing he had left
His willingness to die
To die without her . . .
But he was nothing
The world had taught him that
To be everything in her eyes
And worthless in his own
Still only half a man
Never good enough
Tainted creature
To gain what he wanted most
He would give what little power he had
To become worthy of her
To love her
To become human. . .
But he was useless
The world had taught him that
To be pitiful in her eyes
And limitless in his own
Still only a shell of a man
Never strong enough
Impotent creature
To gain what he wanted most
He would steal what little power he could
To become stronger for her
To possess her
To become hanyou. . .
All for an everlasting love
A love that saved both their dying spirits
Only to lose what remained
For this Onigumo would kill his own heart
For this Inuyasha would damn his eternal soul
For she who wandered the world of the living and the dead
For the one woman who in the end was willing to kill them both
For the love of a miko
For Kikyou
