Hi everyone! Look, this is a heads-up notice, that after the next two chapters, there will be a two day break from my updating, as I am going on camp. I will try to get the chapter after next posted in Wednesday morning, Australia time, but I can't promise anything yet. I will definitely update on the Friday I get back. Yeah so… this poem is about jealousy. I do not own YuGiOh, but I own Bakura's soul! Read on, my pretty mind slaves, read on!
My Hikari is so perfect, with his silver hair and chocolate eyes.
His eyes are soft and beautiful; mine are sharp, cold and in disguise.
His hair; so silky to the touch, while mine is tangled, dirty and weird.
And now the hated jealousy begins; the envy I've always feared.
I had always taught myself not to be envious of the Pharaoh.
Because he had gold, power and the Items; all I had was a big ego.
But now that my Hikari is here before me, much more than I could have been
I find I feel inadequate, and I have no comprehension of what this could mean.
I used to take pride in my rough looks, but now his seem far greater.
Who of us is better? It is simple to any arguer or any mere debater.
I could go on for hours about how his appearance vastly surpasses mine.
I've lost my fan girls all to him, who on his flesh, they'd like to dine.
As a sign of silent affection once, I ran my calloused fingers through his hair.
How surprised was I to find no tangles, split ends or dryness there.
'Twas perfect to the very end, and I felt filthy, and strangely inferior.
Where once I was the leader of our Hikari/Yami bond, I'd been superior.
But now, as my evil eyes look into his pure orbs, I find I don't have pride.
For he is much better than me, on both the gorgeous outside and the caring inside.
He's generous; I never was, he's kind; I'd never been, he's sweet; and I hate life.
That beautiful, fragile, porcelain-skinned angel has never known true strife.
If he thinks that having me as a Yami is bad enough, then he is so naïve.
Though his father's never there, his mother and sister dead, he still won't believe.
That I had a worst past, watching my whole life go up in furious flames.
And having to resort to thievery to live and the Pharaoh copped my bitter blames.
So I am jealous of this perfect light, with a better life, look and personality.
I guess that there is something a bit more perfect about his pure mortality.
Well, that was all, and I guess I will thank:
Dark Magician Girl Hikaru –Yes, I rather think blood would be different from everything else. I actually said the comment you gave in your review to someone at school today! We got to talking about blood and I was all, "Blood is pretty and so crimson red!" Of course, the person gave me a weird look but it was still hilarious! I am extra glad that you liked Silence Solidifies because that, in my opinion, is one of my best poems! I got the title from a Missy Higgins line in a song called 'The Sound of White'. Thanks for reviewing!
ttSerenity –You are so lucky to have a fanfic member that goes to your class! No one I have met actually is registered on that site! It sucks not to be able to talk about fics I read with anyone, and hardly anyone is a YuGiOh freak in my class like I am. Noah is a traitor? I don't particularly see how. He didn't do any…oh wait; he did possess Mokuba when the aforementioned child's back was turned. You have a point, but that made way for the M/N pairing! Woot! Yep, I knew you would like the science term I used! I will always keep dreaming so long as the harsh world around doesn't dampen my spirit and break my soul. Thanks for reviewing, Robert Goyle.
Stormrose Dewleaf –Yummy blood… nah, just kidding, blood is too coppery for my taste. I haven't even read most of the bible, except the work they set us in Religion at school. I want to read the entire tale of Moses though; that fascinates me. Probably because I have The Prince of Egypt on video. Yes, I think homosexuality shouldn't be a sin, and they should be allowed to marry too! Gays are awesome, go yaoi! Besides, no one seems to think the Queer Eye team is sinners! Or rather, they're sinners with an awesome fashion sense! I don't think God played a part in creating the world; I believe the Earth was formed by rocks colliding and being molded by the atmosphere over millions of years, after the big bang. One of my ideas is the wars are Jesus' way of punishing us for idolizing him! I mean, think about it, he was a very humble man and hated the spotlight, and he thought he and his disciples were even. Now he is probably pissed at us for treating him like a God. So that is my theory. Thanks for reviewing!
Love Sami.
