A/N: Well, I finally decided to post something on FanFiction. Without the support of my best friends, I do not think I would have been able to post these poems. Thank you so much for giving me love - I really appreciate it!

I hope you understand what I was trying to achieve in writing these poems.

Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach. Tite Kubo is beast.


-Kurosaki, Ichigo-

We all have to lose sometimes.

And sometimes, the pain never really goes away.

Just when you think you`ve found what you were looking for, some perverse fate takes it away.

I can`t promise you that I`ll stay alive forever, but I can promise you that I`ll never leave you.

I feel that so many things have been missing.

Hearing your voice reminds me.

It reminds me that I can never forget

Your smile, what I`ve lost, the memories, and the person inside I used to be.

I`ve opened these wounds for you to heal,

With the belief that you`re missing me as much as I`m missing you.

And now that our fates have intertwined, there is no turning back once we`ve started.

No one is perfect.

We all have flaws and sins. And I am no exception.

You`ve seen my mistakes and the lives I`ve taken.

But even when we`re lost, we can always find our way back.

Through these damned stone walls that hold you in, I can see, feel you, and take you in for all you are.

I can`t make any promises, but I won`t forget about the ones I`ve kept.

I am not a prince.

I am not a knight in shining armor.

I am not a pure soul.

But I am your guardian,

The one who will always protect you.
