A/N: A poem…been awhile since I've done one.. It's kinda angsty in a way…This is my character Kiyoshi for he is very complex…He knows kindness and sorrow all at once. Sorrow without ever being hurt before… Hope you like it!


Complexities

My life is complex

I'm kind, I'm harsh

I'm neither

I go through life with a quiet

and pessimistic attitude

Life's not fair,

Who said it was going to be?

Living a dream is not reality

That's what someone once told

Me

So I continue on my way,

Tel ing myself what dreams

Cannot accomplish

Keep your head on your

Shoulders, I hear someone say

And out of the clouds

Dreams can only hurt you because like

People they tend to let you down

Then a hand shakes my shoulder,

A voice says, "wake up"

Come out of the darkness before

it engulfs you

A stay there for a while,

Trying to convince the naïve and

Optimistic fool that the dream they

Have can never be reality

But suddenly that hand takes

Hold of me

The cup of life is given to me

The voice urges me "drink"

Drink and live again

I take in the waters of life

I look down the path of

Joy

There I see mirth in someone's

Eyes

But I know not who they are

Stand in the light,

Be counted for and feel the chance

That is held out for you


A/N: You're probably saying what's this about... Well it's a way to understand Kiyoshi...You'll learn though he's not as negative as he seems. As the poem goes he is both kind and harsh...Review!
