The 12th chapter of "A Flower's Smile" and this time it something special, too! A poem. =)
Warnings: Story will be rated T for mentioning of character death, violence and occasional cussing.

Charcoal crackling
Finally, Jaken sits down
Flame flaring
He begins the tale
Crickets chirring
Of our glorious master
Fantasies fostering
Of the kingdom to come.
Cawing are the crows
A sudden pang
I feel within
Freezing are the fingers
Connected to the chamber
Beating in my chest
Reminding me of what is real
Death
Not for him
But for me.
Never a glimpse
Of royal glory
When he will claim
The throne
He's been searching for
All this years
When I am already gone
Not a trace of me left.
As I watch Jaken
Pain besmirching my vision
I can only wish
To be in his place
At Lord Sesshomaru's side
All this years
I will spend with him
All for death's enjoyment
And yet
All this years
My life
Not for me
But for him.
