~Green~
A Sakura-centric Poem
By Kagome-Loves-Kouga
My eyes,
striking green,
once so spirited,
now serene.
I feel your eyes,
sharp onyx,
look at me with respect for the first time,
but I don't care,
not anymore.
Green,
envy,
Green,
my eyes,
I can't believe I loved you,
while you left me there,
to sit and cry.
I wish my eyes were normal,
my pink strands even more so,
but I am very afraid,
that I cannot do so.
This stupid curse,
oh- why me?- my Otousan,
that Bastard,
decided to place it on me before I was three.
Now I must drain my chakra,
or I'll lose control,
nobody seems to notice my wrists,
scarred,
bloody,
cut-up,
bruised.
Green,
envy, Green,
my eyes,
I am proud to say,
I am no longer one who sits and cries.
In this one, Sakura's hair is pink and her eyes green because her father Sealed a demon- Inner Sakura- into her at a very young age. she cut herself to allieviate the bloodlust and rage, and yet nobody noticed. the "Green, Envy" makes sense if you've heard the phrase "the Green Monster". it means Envy... or even "Green with Envy". I make this connection in a few of my poems, because it matches many things I can write sometimes. so... she has to drain chakra every morning, or she'll lose control. this explains why she doesn't like to fight much when she's younger...
