Croix au Miracle

Croix au Miracle

By yui seta

Why should I believe?

There are no miracles

I once had thought that it might be true

Believe in miracles…and they will come true

She handed me a rose with her sweetest smile

But she covered my eyes and tore the petals apart

Leaving me the thorns in my hand

I take comfort in her image now

The only connection to my doomed love

She confuses me

She eludes me, escapes me

I run

I touch

But she is not there

I am alone and for this

I despise her

I believe in nothing

This is what I have chosen

The destiny of a fallen angel

I walk the high and lonely pathway of dreams

I am alone

She knows this and she mocks me

With her false laugh and her false love

She is cruel as she is innocent

I hate her

For she will never know how I truly feel

So it has come to this

She has abandoned me to the shadows

For my wings can no longer take flight

Yet here in the darkness

I may yet find something

Pure…

…And eternal

Will I still see her there?

            This is something I wrote two years ago, for our school paper, dedicated to an anime character Juri Arisugawa of the anime Shoujo Kakumei Utena. I don't know if it was published or not, but I ran through it earlier today. And god…what was I thinking? I edited it a little, yet I know it is very crappy. I am very bad at poetry, so keep your fingers crossed that I will not write any more of this kind of literature. Still hope you enjoyed it. Ja! Juri ROCKS, even though Shiori DOES NOT!
