Masks Of Inuyasha
Chapter 2
My surface may seem smooth but my surface
is my mask, ever-varying and ever- concealing.
Beneath lies no complacence.
Beneath lies confusion and fear and aloneness.
**Why..why did I refuse....why do I push them away...?** Inuyasha watched the kitsune kit and the hentai monk walk out of the hut. **Am I that afraid to make friends...to care?** He thought about his childhood. Being shuned and thought a freak, a horror by mortals and to be hunted down by yokai....**I've gotta stay this way, though. I have to. I don't want to be hurt any more!**
But I hide this. I don't want anybody to know it.
I panic at the thought of my fear an weakness being exposed.
That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind,
a nonchalant sophisticated façade, to help me pretend,
to shield me from the glance that knows.
**No one can know my weakness...no one can know how human my heart is! It's a weaknessthey'll take advantage of!** He wasn't sure if he was right but that was all he knew since his mother died. Then he met Kikyo. **She found out my weakness and look what it got me! Pinned to a god damn tree for fifty freaking years! My mask works for me! It'll save me....** Then he thought about Kagome. **But she knows....those looks she throws at me..pittying looks...I have to pretend!!**
but a glance is precisely my salvation.
My only hope, and I know it.
That is, if it's followed by acceptance,
if it's followed by love.
**She wants to break down my wall...that damn woman! She doesn't know that she is....and that because of that I'm scared spitless. I'm crule to her and try to push her away but she's always there!! I don't wanna love again! Love only hurts....people die and people get pinned to trees...I CAN'T FALL IN LOVE!!!**
