A/N: Hey again guys! I have returned.
Sorry for the wait - as usual, I've been procrastinating. Yeah, nothing new there... it's amazing I don't run out of excuses. Anywho, this poem's all Yukiru (HEART HEART HEART). Ahem. So without further ado...
DISCLAIMER and stuff: Fruits Basket is the property of the amaaaaazing Takaya-sensei, who is awesome beyond words. And I suppose it kinda belongs to Hana to Yume too, but I'm not going into that.
Please regard me kindly! (:
Colour in the Grey
She's a splash of colour,
On the canvas of my mind,
She's the inspiration
I'd been robbed of years ago...
When did her voice
Begin to resemble an angels?
And when did my heart's icy prison
Begin to melt away?
She alone is the warmth
I've been searching for,
Bringing back emotions
I didn't think I'd feel again.
My past may have been grey and shadowy
But my future -
Could she make it bright...?
I spent years as a tool,
Supposedly special,
But used as a toy;
Left to the mercy of a beast.
I was sinking,
Falling away from humanity;
Abandoned!
Used to satisfy another's greed.
Couldn't she see!
Did my mother turn a blind eye...?
Oh how I searched for it,
For so long, with a hapless desire -
I needed someone warm,
Someone unconditionally loving,
Someone who would stand by me,
Through it all.
And now I'm sure I've found her,
Perhaps my mind can be at ease...
But I feel so selfish!
I've forced my wants onto her.
But somehow...
Somehow, she still cares for me,
Happy and carefree,
Regardless of my childishness,
My self-centeredness.
So why can't she see it?
She's my colour, my inspiration, my muse -
Tohru Honda, the girl I'm determined not to lose.
A/N: Nyeh heh heh. You have NO idea how much thats been edited since the first draft. I suppose that's my fault for writing it after midnight, though. Oh well.
REVIEW! Seriously, only having one review makes little old Cookie-chan sad. Pwease? :3 I don't care if it's a compliment or an outright flame, I just wanna hear from the FF community. Gah.
