Sesshomaru came home late that night. Kagome's car was parked outside in the driveway. He walked through the front
door, "Kagome!" he yelled, "I'm home! Finally.." he sighed in relief, but there was no answer to his call. "Kagome!" ...still no
answer. "Kagome?" he yelled as loud as he could. He searched every room in the mansion. Up on the third floor, about to
go back downstairs to call the police when he noticed the roof door cracked. Sesshomaru walked to the door and walked up
the stairs. He reached the top and saw kagome. He was about to yell out to her, but she started talking to herself.
"Oh Koga...we've been over for years and I still find myself thinking of you daily. Sesshomaru reminds me so much of you.
And when I look at him...I remember all the times you and I shared. Even.. that night...when you first told me you loved me.
I almost gave into the lust that night. Mahachihiro Lake...I remember that night...and your words. Now they're worthless...
"I'll be there with you...always." you said. Now look, you're just another guy. You changed so quickly. I couldn't stop it..."
She started crying. Sesshomaru was reaching for her when he jerked his hand back quickly as she started singing.
"I know that you're hiding things,
Using gentle words to shelter me.
Your words were like a dream.
But dreams could never fool me,
Not that easily.
I acted so distant then,
Didn't say goodbye before you left.
But I was listening,
You'll fight your battles far from me,
Far too easily.
"Save your tears 'cause I'll come back."
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door,
But still I swore
To hide the pain,
While I turned back the pages.
Shouting might have been the answer,
What if I cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart?
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart.
'Cause a thousand words call out through the ages,
They'll fly to you,
Even though I can't see,
I know they're reaching you,
Suspended on silver wings.
Oh a thousand words,
One thousand embraces,
Will cradle you,
Making all of your weary days seem far away.
They'll hold you forever.
Oh a thousand words (a thousand words),
Have never been spoken (ohhh yeah),
They'll fly to you,
They'll carry you home (carry you home),
And back into my arms,
Suspended on silver wings (On silver wings),
And a thousand words (ohh),
Call out through the ages (call through the ages),
They'll cradle you (oh yeah)
Turning all of the lonely years to only days (only days),
They'll hold you forever..."
Kagome buried her head in her kneees and let it all out, tears pouring from her eyes. Sesshomaru was stunned by the meaning
of the song.
"Kagome..." he said. She turned quickly with her face shining under the moonlight. Sesshomaru knelt down next to her and
held her close.
"You heard..?" she asked.
"Everything.." he replied.
She cried in his shirt as he held her close.
