Stories In His Scars
Tell me where you've been
The stories of your adventures
Where are these gashes from
What bullet left this hole here
How many needles have prodded you
Does it hurt to look at yourself
Can I touch you and not inflict more pain
Would you let me in
After all that has tortured you
You shield yourself from the world
Please let me see more
Beyond your glorious blonde locks
Green orbs of tenderness
A red coat you wear as a second skin
But as permeable as air to bullets
Could I trace the scars with a slender finger
Will another's touch scare you
Have you grown accustomed to solitude
Seeing your smile makes me cry inside
You only do so to hide your own insecurities
Are you yearning for a partner
Or are you waiting for the end
Graphs of metal cover your heart
Is that your only line of defense
Would I be allowed to touch you
To penetrate your guard
Be let in and help you carry your weight
Relieve you of your loneliness
Please I don't want to push the issue
Why do you hide under those gold glasses
Beneath the determined bullet riddled coat
Dust swirls behind you but I wont let you disappear
Of this earth or an angel is yet to be decided
This much is true you are beautiful
No more doubts in my mind
I want to know you
To know each scar and story
Let me under your skin
Inside your mind
Deep in your heart
*note* This is my first anime related poem. I usually write about life
and how much it sucks at times. This could be seen as Meryl's thoughts,
but I'd prefer to think it of the thoguhts of all those that have been
touched my Vash. Lina, Wolfwood (for those yaoi fans), even Milly could
be thinking all this. These are my thoughts after watching "Goodbye For
Now" and seeing all those scars as he stripped in the street and sat in
his hospital bed speaking with Wolfwood. I hope you all enjoyed, and be
sure to review. Check out my other poems too, I love feedback, how else
can I improve? Ne? Love and Peace !!!
