A/N : So yeah... It's not really a story, but I think it will be soon. Possible one-shot...but then again this feels unfinished. Tis my first time posting something so ummm...hooray? SOMEONE told me to hurry up and post something. So yeah. There will be more soon...I think. lol. Give me some feedback. I'm not confident on how it turned out. Thanks very much for reading.

Disclaimer: I don't own Mai Hime. doode, but if I did...lol. oh the possibilities.


What are we Shizuru?

Can I really forget what happened?

Our relationship,

These feelings,

This is not friendship.

What is it that I feel for you?

My heart aches when I think of you.

It frightens me.

Why is this so complicated?

Platonic love?

It's anything but that.

Mai and Mikoto are platonic,

Alyssa and Miyu are platonic,

Heck, even Yukino and Haruka are platonic.

So what are we Shizuru?

Through the span of less than four years,

You slowly melted my cold exterior

And re-awakened a part of me that

I thought drowned with my mother

In the depths of the sea.

------

Even on that fateful day,

When we were reborn in each other's arms,

I knew this fabrication had to end.

Whatever barriers we had built around us,

Whatever destruction we had caused,

Whatever happened to us in the past,

Had to be pushed aside, forgotten and forgiven.

I said I did not feel the same way as you,

However, as of now I'm not so sure.

------

I miss you everyday, Shizuru.

Upon hearing the crimes you've committed,

Your so-called Idolizers turned against you

And praised that loud-mouthed wench Haruka.

Hypocrites, the lot of them.

Yet you still upheld your stature,

Even when everyone chose to ignore you on the podium.

Ostracized, defeated, and forgotten,

It was then you left without a word.

You didn't even let me say Goodbye.

Where are you now Shizuru?

Am I still always on your mind?

------

It's been two years since you disappeared.

No one can say I didn't try to find you.

Baka Onna, you hide your tracks well.

------

This is my last year at Fuuka.

Mai and the others have been kind to me,

However, they still can't compare to you.

I pass by the garden where we first met.

My fingers trail across the petals of a flower.

I feel my lips curve up into a gentle smile.

Looking at the delicate flora I still remember.

But I wonder, Shizuru, do you?
