I haven't done this in a while, so I'm trying to get back in the swing of things... wish me luck.
I'll do pretty much any pairing, but please, no freaky pairings or anything like that.

*However, all poetry, unless otherwise stated, IS mine. Yes, I write poetry... and I like to think I'm good at it. Feel free to tell me otherwise.

shadows wrap 'round me
for one final time
Ryou slammed his notebook shut and slipped the pen into his pocket.
What happened to all the upbeat poems about nature he used to write? Why was his notebook half-filled with poems about goodbyes and shadows, darkness and final? When would his head stop spinning? When would he stop grieving over-

I will always be with you
I'll come back again

Another breeze swept through the park, ruffling the hikari's hair comfortingly.
