The End I Chose

by anonymous2234

This is my first story/short I've written. It came out of the fact the ending of bleach made me extremely sad. So to compensate I gave a perspective of the inner thoughts of Ichigo 10 years after. It is an acceptance of the circumstances with a hint of hope. I do not own bleach nor any of these characters

I wonder , if this was what I wanted? ...

No...

It's that simple, no. I never wanted this

But I was the one who chose this.

I chose what I never dreamed I would have

The fear that plagued the alternative took hold

and from there I chose my life

I would be lying if I said I don't love my wife

It would be a lie to say I don't love my son

It would be untruthful to say that these last year's haven't been peaceful

But there is the presence that haunts my every awakening

However,

I will live my life no matter the cost

I will love my wife because she deserves it

I will love my son because he is my pride and joy

I will take this because I chose too

But,

I owe another a few words

I know like me, you chose your life

Like me you have a partner in this life you love

A child that you love

So let me say this once.

To you the one who changed my life

To you the one I ran through a thousand blades for

To you who stopped my rain

To you who gave me strength and power

Who understood me like no one else

I am with you and not simultaneously in this life

But believe me

I will find you in the next

and the thousands to come

And NEVER will I let you go
