The cherry blossoms that grow in the spring

Smiling upon the world with its lustrous glow

Teasing the skin with its gentle touch

Kissing the lips with its sweetened taste

Embracing the heart with its never-ending beauty

-

Watching upon those sights with a saddened face

Cold and unfazed as the smiling blossom draws near

Careful to hide the emotions that penetrate through

Feelings that show through the dark misty eyes

Now blinded by the heavy lust for power and revenge

-

Afraid to feel the pain of sorrow and loneliness again

Not wanting to cling on to the people of the present

Resentful to those that care for him

Yet living his life within the painful past

Not wanting to remember, yet unwilling to let go

-

Craving for the feelings of being whole

Wishing for his family's love to reappear once again

Stabbing pains of longing for their face

Yet a simple smile gracing her lips

Makes this pain momentarily fade

-

Hating himself for being this way

Unable to accept his feelings for her

Hiding from this mind-boggling truth

Straying afar from the path he wanted to take

Unknowingly causing more pain than he thought

-

Seeing the tears that fall from her eyes

Concealing his distress with the cold-tainted face

Harsh hurtful words escape his lips

Destroying the blossoming flower that strives to be seen

Like the cold winter snow that falls upon the Sakura trees


AN: This poem was supposed to reflect upon Sasuke's feelings, mostly about Sakura I guess you could say, though I'm not sure how well I did that. Anyways, if you could kindly hit the review button down there and let me know what you think, that would be perfect. Thanks for reading this!
