When You Let Go

by Aoiga

A poem, for when Sasuke left, and it's Naruto talking. I heard a song about holding on when the world was letting go, so this came out of it! Enjoy.

When all the world is letting go,

I just can't help but cry,

I don't want to leave,

But as I see you passing by,

I just can't help but say no,

Deep inside,

But then, I never see you anymore,

Since you walked through those gates,

Since you moved on,

Since you left us all,

How could you do this to us?

Your one family,

The one that's still alive,

That helped you to live?

Could you not feel a thing when you saw me that day,

Did it not touch you at all?

And as I saw you letting go of the things you love,

I try not to show,

The tears I am hiding,

For I miss you.

And I'll always be fighting,

To get you back to us.

You don't know what you have left behind, Sasuke.
