Confiding In Aoshi

I came to this place to find where I belonged
But reality is cruel and they hurt me
They were merciless and uncompassionate
They shunned me, used me, betrayed me
No one understands

I'm alone in the world
I've always tried to not let what others think or say hurt me
I tried to not let their harsh words and actions bring me down
But this time my wounds were cut deep and my spirit is wounded

I have no one to go to. No one to confide in
I run through the street in the dark of night
Tying to hold back the tears I dive into the driving rain
No more, I want to remember nothing of this!

I need a shelter to keep out the rain to keep out the pain
Help me, comfort me
But as you stand before me
I forget the pain

And now I'm shrouded the embrace of strong arms
Enchanted by the gaze of ice blue eyes

Those eyes see past what the others saw
Those eyes are so understanding
Those arms are so harboring
That soul is so comforting

That pain no longer haunts me
I've found a shelter from the rain
I know who to confide in

My Ice Blue Eyes...
I love you
I wrote this when I was swooning over Aoshi-sama. sighs So it's got a lot of fangirlism essence in it. Go easy now, it's my first fanfiction. No flames please.
