Silent Depression

---------------

Tomoe, how can we live like this?
The silence between us is driving me mad,
Not a word is spoken between us.

We are living together,
Though both of us are living alone

Will you ever become joyful?
The gracious swan,
Concealed in a life of quiet sadness

Even though my life is tattered with blood
Painted with an unhappiness no one could bear,
I try to smile. I try to smile just for you.

Beloved,
The delirium,
The madness we our living in,
Must stop

I cannot stand it, not anymore
The deep secrecy, the sullenness
Is driving us insane

Something must pull us out of this prison,
This isolation,
It must stop

Our life in Outsu is the very same
AS a blanket of mournfulness
Like darkness in the sky at night

-----------

He is so quiet,
So, unspeakable
So shy

Or maybe I am the quiet one.

How do I be more outgoing?
How can I be less nostalgic?

Our quiet life
The one we wished for, and hoped for,
Is now becoming to much to withstand.

We are both so timid,
From a life of dejection and sorrow.

I am to protect him,
From going insane

But I cannot protect his happiness,
If I am living in tranquility

After all, Every Sword needs a strong sheath

hhmm... This one has BOTH St. Kenshin-sama and Tomoe's side of the story. It takes place before--- before the terrible thing happened-- When they were living together in Outsu x

Imalefty: italics?? well, I do my stories in HTML, so the text that is italics has around it, and at the end of the italics has ( without the spaces though, because it will actually make the text italicized....--x) I'm not that much of a webmaster anyway x--- more like a webmistress o0x....

P.S.: please don't expect anymore anything written from me UNTIL summer anyway x
