For Hikaru, because 1: She's a genius and 2: I owe her for that epic story she just posted cx Btw, I've only ever posted my free-verse, and not any of my actual poetry (none of it was even about a fandom) so this is something a little new! YAY!
I don't own mini-ninjas (sad, isn't it?)
He sees her dancing
Raven hair flowing
Sunlit and Beautiful
Her partners twirling around her, golden and free
(And he is only a little jealous of them)
[ ]
For a moment he is lost
Caught up in her beauty
Afraid to move, to breathe
Afraid to break this mirage of perfection
And suddenly he remembers
[]
Remembers days that were not so lost—
Days of watching her
Watching her jump and twirl
Her partner was ridged then (yet she could make him beautiful)
Until the mirage was broken by falling trees
[]
There are no more days of youth now
Yet there is also no more darkness
And with this in mind, he approaches her
Breaks the mirage, making it real
And holds out another partner for her
[]
In the meadow of flowers and grass
Where darkness no longer lies and only wind remains
A young man saw a twirling woman
Handed her a golden flower
And joined her in her wind dance
Ugh. FF wouldn't let me group my lines-it just puts one space between every line. Hence the brackets. *Head desks*
