The Confession
Drops of rain fill the evening sky.
She's crying again,
I can feel it.
Masked by that perfect smile no one can see her pain,
No one but me
Every time I manage the slightest bit of concern she brushes me aside.
Always teasing relentlessly
Whenever I fell she was the one to pick me back up.
Yet her, my honey-haired goddess,
She will let no one near,
Not even me.
Within my eyes pools of sadness take hold.
Instead of pursuing her,
I ran.
Ran for the place we'd first met.
Least did I expect her.
Yes, her of all people to be standing there.
With tear stained cheeks,
A far from perfect image
However to me, it only adds to her beauty,
The beauty of being human
Quickly she tries to cover her tears,
Turning to run,
To leave me
Before I realize what it is I have done, I feel warmth within my arms
It is her warmth.
With arms tightly about her waist I hold her reassuringly,
For the first time she allows me to feel her pain.
To allow me to just hold her as I am now,
Seeing her weakness first hand
I would stay like this forever if it only meant her happiness.
I would stay with her until the end of the world came again,
Just to see her smile.
I love you Shizuru;
Always have;
And always will.
