Chapter 2: The Poem

            Rukawa unfolded the letter and stared at the not- so- neat handwriting on the small piece of paper. Squinting his eyes, he began to read…

iu'Beneath These Lies'/u/i

iYour eyes are never- ending pools of the coldest blue,

And to most they may seem beautiful/i

/p

Rukawa stopped reading the letter in distaste. i'How idiotic,'/i he thought. i'Yet another stupid poem/i. But then, something about the poem drew him to continue reading. Maybe it was the title; It had said the word, 'lies' after all…

p

iBut to me, they resemble nothingness…

You, who…

Use your deadly features,

Luring people,

Ruining them.

Appealing people,

And at the end,

Destroying them.

You who hold

The coldest of glares,

You who receive

The grandest of stares

But I'm immune to them,

My heart is stone

When it comes to you

My glare can melt your icy throne

And as I look at you,

An unending hatred fills my eyes.'/i

Rukawa's usually expressionless eyes were wide with surprise as he turned the paper over, looking for the next phrase. But, he couldn't find it. The letter wasn't signed, and it seemed that this person, whoever it was, had torn off the bottom of the paper. i'Who could hate me this much?'/i he thought as he searched for a possibly dropped piece of white notebook paper with brisk movements. After all, even if he was the ice prince, he was still human; and humans had feelings. Even this one… He wondered for a moment if it was that Do-ahou but perished the thought because the guy already showed his dislike for the 'kitsune' in public. Why in the world would he express it in a poem? He was beginning to feel drowsy, so he decided to find out whoever had written it in the morning.
