Title: Alone

Genre: Poetry/Angst

Rating: PG just in case.

POV: Kurt/OC. This is from my original character's POV. Her name's Raine Kumo, and she is both my main RPG character and in my story 'Broken Angel'. You can also read my friend Zylen666's story, not only is it a good story, she's in it too! Enjoy.

Raine is a very complicated and deep person.

I hear a voice

Far away

A voice

Calling for me

No…I must be mistaken

No one would call like that for me

I am alone…

No one would search for me

For I am nothing

No one would dare to breathe for me

For I never was anything

And yet

Far across the distance

I can still hear that simple plea

A plea for me to return

To the existence I left behind

"Don't leave us,

We need you.

You are and will always be

One of us."

The voice says

The sound wavering on the breeze

And then

As I stood there undecided

It called one final time

"Come back…

Because I need you…"

Me?

I was actually…

Needed?

Wanted?

I hesitated

My crimson optics meeting

The ground

This couldn't be right

Bamf

Chrome yellow eyes

Haunted and sad

Stared right back at me

"Do you really hate us that much?

Are we that meaningless to you,

That you can just move on

And forget about us?"

Your eyes questioned why

As they burned into mine

Funny thing

I was the one with the

Flame-colored eyes

I whimpered softly

Not allowing for those tears

To burn their separate paths down my cheeks

I still retained my honor

"Am I really that worthless to you?

After all that we've been through,

You can just leave and forget

About us?"

It's not that simple

Things were never quite

That simple

"There never was an us,

Were there?

You just used us in order

For you to get stronger?"

You're wrong

I was taken there by force

And yet even then

I decided to stay

I never used any of you

For my own purpose

Together, we grew stronger

And with you I…

I learned so many things

More than just mere skills

Trust…

Friendship…

And from you in particular

Love.

"It isn't because of you, Kurt.

It is for your own sake,

That I leave.

I am too much of a problem."

You shook your head

Not agreeing with my words

"That ain't true.

We'll always be there for you,

No matter what you think.

Raine, you're one of us."

Bamf

You reappeared next to me

You face so close to mine

I could see the pain in your eyes

As if you felt it for me

You did feel it for me

Surprisingly enough

I did not understand

Why me?

The confusion flew

Through my eyes

I know that you

Noticed it too

"Raine…

I love you…

Please…

Come home to where you belong…"

Reaching out

You held you hand

For me

To grasp

I stared at it for a long moment

And then…

I took it…

"I want to go home…"

And I know that with you…

…I'll never be alone again…
