Wrote this at lunch again.  For those who are waiting, next See Seto Run chap will be up Thursday or the weekend.

            Okay well, this is a sappy poem from Yami's perspective thinking about Yugi.  No yaoi, just friendship.  This was actually pretty easy to write but it sounds a lot like some of the fics I've read on this site, so beware: lack of originality.  I'm not sure what hikari and aibou mean for sure, but I've seen them a lot and can guess their meaning.  Read and enjoy.

Little Hikari

Sometimes I wonder

what if some other mortal

pieced together my puzzle…

would I be taller?

would I be stronger?

would I have more power?

My aibou is a schoolchild

He is the shortest in his class

In my past life

I commanded armies;

kings groveled at my feet.

I rode my chariot like fire

Through the cheering masses.

Here I play video games

I watch tv,

I listen to the gossip of his friends,

And study for math tests.

Sometimes I wonder…

What if Pegasus was my hikari,

Or Kaiba,

Or even Tristan?

Would I possess the power I crave?

But then I watch him,

My little aibou

Touching his cards

With the very tips of his fingers.

I watch him sleep peacefully

and awake full of joy.

He cries so easily

and laughs so quickly.

His friends are life to him

as my power was to me.

He saved his grandfather,

I saved the world.

But are we really that different,

My aibou and I?

We both watch the sun rise

and glow with our happiness.

We duel in the arena

and thrill with our wins.

I hold much pride,

He holds much love.

Could it be my hikari

knows more than I?

He looks up with wide eyes

to my fierce face

He says without

a single trace of fear,

Well Yami,

I'm glad to call you

my friend
