Why did I do this?

You might ask

He was my only true tomodaichi

My only friend

The others, they claim

That they still like me

But I see them move

Away from me and all that I'll be

Why did I do this?

My family asks

I did it to be with him, my tomodaichi, my lover

I did it because I promised to never be with another

Why did I do this?

My so-called friends ask

I did it to get away

From them and the evil that stays

But no more will they haunt me

My conscience is cleared, my past revealed

Why don't they look at me and all that I'll be?

Why did I do this?

The doctors ask

I did it to be with my love

Is that so hard to understand?

Is that too much to comprehend?

I have a right to be with my love

And soon I'll join him, way up above

My vision is clouding

I feel myself fading

The world is darkened by eternal night

But then, it is lightened by a very bright light.

I step through the light

I see the gates

One signature later

Is an eternity

I'm near my lover now, I must go find him!

I can't see him

Is he not here?

Did I go through all that

Was it all blasphemy?

Then, I spot him

I cry out in joy

My lover runs up to me

His eyes shining with light

Why did you do it?

My lover asks

To be with you

My lover hears me and hugs me tight

For in a world where we were not accepted

We can stay here and love forever

Author's Note: This one might be hard to guess. I'll give you a hint. Both lovers are hikaris.

Review and I'll reply!
