Hey everyone! I have given thought to this entire story, and due to lack of reviews, I have been considering ending it at either chapter thirty of chapter thirty five. If you want to see much more than that, review! Read on!

Disclaimer: I do not own this YuGiOh, of which you mortals speak. I will capture its copyright when my account reaches its peak!

My heart is glass that shattered long ago; I count the broken shards.

My fate rests now on duelling, and I put to use my strong occult cards.

I camouflage my pain and leave it out to see, but cover it with hate.

I exorcise my demons, and I turn the wrists of the hands of cruel fate.

Dreamers like Kaiba are like the sky, they shift; unaware of life.

But spirits like me are cursed to never die; I lie upon my poison knife.

King of Thieves, I once was alive, but those days have been left behind.

And now I am but a host of the mad darkness that controls your mind.

The Pharaoh's dead, my light has left, I am alone now in this place.

My mother died so long ago, and I don't recall a friendly face.

Nobody took me by the hand and left me in this bitter time.

Why don't you help? All you do is sit here and read this lonely rhyme.

Written by a lonely authoress who sees my soul, and reads my thoughts.

But my thoughts of a lost soul are filled with such sadness and remorse.

Bail me out upon this world like water upon boiling steel.

And I will follow; lead me where you will, for I know not what is real.

Divine this life may seem to you; but to me it seems like hated death.

And thought I wallow in shadowed realms I have no emanated breath.

Oh resonance, deliver to me screams of fear and howls of lies.

While my newest tortured victims are left to sweat, and their soul dies.

I pick it up from you ashes and cast it down upon the ground.

I leave it there to fall and be scattered around without a sound.

Free I am to see this pain, this death, this life of no release.

But how I wish these brutal lullabies and nightmares would just cease.

Foul stenches of the corpses and skeletons I keep in my closet.

I wear around the house, and blood I, to my mouth, deposit.

Save me from my treachery, it feels so good, but hurts so bad.

Save me mortal, lest I fall upon the edge of going mad.

And take my knives upon your throat; the task for you is to live.

For you may never survive after this slashing of the skin I give.

But please forgive me, let it go and flow away in insanity.

Let me cry here in my fetal position that was my destiny.

There you have it, chapter twenty six of Thoughts from a Lost Soul, I hope you liked it!

Thanks:

ttSerenity –You should murder your brother, or else just shove him off. I would do that; ever since I registered, the person that owns this computer can't even use it! Ryou didn't actually harm Akefia, he just scared him because of how dark he was getting and how he was no longer innocent. You mean you are actually going to go to E-Bay and order that person a plushie? As if! You can't even get them! The only plushie I've ever seen of a character is the Pharaoh, and even so it was from Japan. I will keep writing. Thanks for the review.

Stormrose Dewleaf –Hi Stormrose! Yeah, Yami is dead, killed by Ryou. Oh well, hope I didn't make Ror too mad! Thanks for wishing me a happy early birthday! I'm happy you care! At our school, we can borrow seven books over a period of two weeks, and the fines are unknown to me, but I think you have to pay for the cost of the book. I don't know if I want to go to college when I graduate, but I suppose if I do I'll go for a Bachelor of Arts, like my dad. It's a writing thing. I don't know if there are any college courses to do with singing though…glad you liked the poem, I really liked that line too! You have a boyfriend? I don't because to tell you the truth I don't bother with them; I am perfectly happy just writing and getting reviews, and even my friend who is in year ten thinks that you shouldn't really have a boy until you are like fifteen or something. I like meaningless babble, don't apologize! Thanks for reviewing.

Thanks for reviewing guys, you are the only ones who have remained loyal to this fic!

Love Sami, Ryou's Hikari.
