Answering the Cry
By: Sailoruranus07
I heard it,
His screams
But I didn't see him
The boy with the cascading evergreen locks that
seem to hide his elegant features
Saionji, where could you be?
As I pass through the crowds of people, I hear the
sobs of that innocent being
He swears that he is innocent, but guilt comes out
on top no matter what.
Is
he guilty for the crimes that he has been committed
for?
If it were up to me I'd let him free
Free from his chambers deep within his soul
The chambers that don't even seem to let him
breathe, yet alone live
As I get closer, the sobs are taking over my mind
Why do they sound so pathetic?
Muffled cries for help escape through the tainted
tears that which seep from under the locks of hair
People are laughing
Could they be laughing at him?
Saionji, the boy that no one seems to notice
Is he that hard to notice
I admit I try to not notice his weak cries, but now it
seems like I can't no matter how hard I try
It's as if a black hole is sucking me in to him and
making me care
But do I really need that black hole to make me fall
under him to make sure he doesn't fall all the
way?
Maybe he just needs someone to hold him and tell
him that it's all right
Someone to caress his face whenever he sheds a
tear
To make sure every tear he sheds comes and goes
like the pain he has held for all these years
And maybe even not come again, as long as that
special person is there protecting him
Anthy couldn't do it,
Maybe I can be that person
That person that which shares his pain
That person that loves him
I hear it again,
This time louder
The room falls quiet
I turn around
And I see him
Perhaps he has broken free from the dark chambers
of his soul
I smile at him, but then I frown as I see the large
puddles of blood that have fallen under him
Where did they come from?
He is shaking, quivering
He looks tired
Taking quick nervous breathes
He starts to fall
And
out of instinct I run over there and catch him
before he falls all the way
He is shaking even more now that he is in my arms
I stroke his hair
The mask that was hiding the true Saionji all along
I know the true Saionji
A strained voice said in surprise, "Juri...you care!"
I just smiled and replied "Saionji, it's ok, I'm here."
As he lay motionless in my arms,
I knew I could love him,
And no one else.
OWARI
