A Child Still
You are how I was:
A child still, never given
The chance to mature.
Author's Notes: Another one about Soujiro and Kenshin, this one from the latter's point of view. It took me so long to come up with a title for this one, and it ended up just being taken from the poem itself… This is somewhat similar to the last one (I wrote them both at the same time, quite awhile back), but it emphasizes the difference between the two almost as much as their aching similarities—for Soujiro has yet to make Kenshin's journey and experience the growth he's been missing. If Kenshin had known Soujiro's past… He probably already felt for the poor boy, but oh, the rue…
So, summer vacation has finally come! Yay for free time! Now to get my arse moving on all those writing projects that need attending to…
A big thank-you is long due to sueb262 and Warg, for being such faithful reviewers. You rock! Reviews are such good motivation to keep on writing, as I'm sure you two know. I should probably try to keep my A/N's from rambling, though (as my brother put it when he was taking a look: "Isn't it kind of bad that your author's notes are longer than the actual writing?"), so—see you all around!
