Kawa no Yume: River Dream
Let the waves crash
Let the sky fall down
Let the cold waters spill over
Let the lightening split the land
I can't care anymore,
Or worry
I can't see anymore,
Or sense
There's only a
Burning that won't cease
And it's bought
My silence
Forever
I feel
My fingers
Touch
My face-
Funny, I never noticed before how strong and cold and spider-like they are
-The tips soon becoming
Crimson-stained
Blood? Yes, there's
Blood
Upon my cheek
I hadn't realized it. But
I haven't vision there any longer
And the pain is
So sharp
And
So biting
And my memory is
Flooding
Back to me
I lie against a
Riverbank
Mud oozing through my thin shirt
Grass brushing my ears and neck
I
Choke and
Force down
Tears
A river,
A river,
A flood and
A fight
And the rain that ran down,
And continued
And we fell. We did fall.
Both of us,
Into that river,
Into that flood
But I
Stayed up, and he
Sank under
I caught his fingers, and they were thin but strong as mine
Ours locked together,
Tangled together
For a moment
I was so sure that I had him
For a moment
Certain I would keep him, bring him back
And then everything exploded
In pain,
In red,
In nightmares:
I let go
Gods, gods, let me die.
Let me sink away.
Let me drown.
Anything
To escape
Everything
I let him drown,
I let him sink,
I let him go,
I let him die.
My companion,
My friend,
My comrade,
My brother.
A horror,
A murder,
An ending,
A lie.
I should be punished
I should be forgotten
And vanish
Into hell
Not worthy
Of heaven
To be killed
For killing him
It only takes a little effort
To push away
To leave the bank
The warm mud
The shallow water
Only a little effort
To go back
To let the river
Embrace me
And escape myself
My terrible self
Only a little effort
And I won't live any longer
The water is colder now
Deeper
Stronger
Harder
Pulling
Twisting
Swirling
Reaching
Carrying
Grasping
Taking
Currents
Eddies
Ripples
Whirlpools
The river crawls over me
Filling my mouth
My nose
My eyes
Clouding me
Drawing me into itself
Claiming me
Ah...I'm drowning...
Sinking under
And as the water closes over my head
I am happy

AN: This is based off Chichiri's Gaiden, Shoryuu Den, in which he fell into the river and then was rescued by a girl named Kouran, (same name as his fiancée, you'll notice), etc. At any rate, this takes place in between the time he fell and then was found: he doesn't really drown, of course, because of Kouran.
