Bright Eyes Is it a kind of a dreamYami
remembered the look on his hikari's face as he got ready to go. He could
remember everything, including the darkness of the corridor they stood in.
Yami, with a drawstring bag over his shoulder, quietly closed the door to his
soul room.
Floating
out on the tide
He took
one last look at the fading yellow Sennen eye on his door and at the
indentations that had accumulated over the years. He sighed. He tried to be as
quiet as he was packing his few belongings. He didn't want Yugi to know. He
didn't want to hurt him even more than he had over his life.
Following
the river of death downstream
Oh is it a dream?
"Where are you going?"
Yami whirled around to see Yugi staring at him with a confused look in his
eyes. He was in a pair of pale blue pajamas and looked half-asleep. The door to
his soul room was open, and the soft glow of a night-light filled the corridor.
Yami didn't know what to say.
There's a fog along
the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
"Where are you going?"
Yugi asked again.
And nobody seems to know where it goes
Yami opened his mouth
to speak, but no words came out. Yugi spied the drawstring slung over his
shoulder and his eyes flew to his yami's eyes, asking all questions. Yami
turned away, intending to just walk out and pray that Yugi will forgive him.
And what does it mean?
Oh is it a dream?
But Yami stopped, turning back to the tears in his hikari's eyes.
"Where…why are you
going Yami?"
Bright eyes, burning like fire
"I don't know where I'm
going Yugi. And I don't know if I'm coming back."
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
Yugi's eyes dimmed.
Tears were welling up in his eyes as he tried so hard not to cry. Yami looked
away, pain growing in his heart. He remembered this all too well. He still felt
the pain. Yugi looked at him again, tears beginning to stream from his violet
eyes.
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes
Yugi suddenly hugged Yami, crying his heart out. Yami didn't know what to
say. Yugi looked up at him, eyes now angry and still streaming tears.
Is it a kind of a shadow
Reaching into the night
"You never tell me why you go anywhere, and now you don't tell me why you're leaving."
"Yugi…it's not like
that. I…"
Wandering over the hills unseen
Oh is it a dream?
"Just go!" Yugi cried,
pushing away from Yami and trying to run back into his soul room. Yami grabbed
his wrists.
There's a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
"Yugi, I'm leaving on
my own account. You're big enough to take care of yourself."
And nobody ever knows where you go
And where do you start?
Yes…Yami remembered
himself saying that. He looked back on that last night many times on his
travels. There was nothing like a decent memory. Yami couldn't help but wonder
what happened to his hikari.
Oh into the dark
Yami stared up at the full moon in the nighttime sky. He thought that it
was slightly odd that the stars weren't out…but that didn't matter. He was
tired. He had done so much in his life.
Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
His bright eyes slowly
dimmed. He assumed that it was getting darkened, even though the moonlight
poured onto his face. He closed his eyes…
How can the light that burned so brightly,
Suddenly burn so pale?
He closed his eyes…
Bright eyes
…drifting to sleep
Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
Yugi waited next to the
bloody pipe, tears welling up in his eyes.
How can the light that burned so brightly,
The heartbeat kept
getting softer and softer…
Suddenly burn so pale?
Until it was gone
forever. Yugi's eyes peered into the hole, and could faintly see the smile on
his yami's face.
Bright eyes
