Let me go

One more kiss could be the best thing
But one more lie could be the worst
And all these thoughts are never resting
And you're not something I deserve

Standing on the roof he looked down on her. His eyes observed her every move; even the slightest movement did not go unnoticed.

He did not understand why he was feeling this way. Once he had been nothing more than a monster, nowadays it seemed easier to be a monster than to be a human being.

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

He could still remember the day she had came into his life. He had not even deemed her worthy of his attention.

But somehow the second time they met things were different. Maybe it was because he had become more human, but she had not gone unnoticed that time.

He could not get her out of his mind, the way her beautiful pink hair caught the sunlight, her big green eyes shining brightly with passion.

She had grown so much. Once she used to be weak, however she was now strong. Following in the footsteps of one of the legendary Sannin she had become one of the best medics.

Such a caring and kind person she turned out to be. She was one of the few people that had ever stood up to him, giving hope to those around her and somehow charming even himself with her smile.

He never did understand how this had come to be, how she could feel that way about someone who in the past had tried to kill her. But she had simply laughed softly and shrugged it off. He was a different person now, she had said.

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go
Let me go

He knew better though. Deep down he was still a monster and he was still capable of hurting her. She deserved so much better.

How could she love someone she did not even know?

I dream ahead to what I hope for
And I turn my back on loving you
How can this love be a good thing
When I know what I'm going through

He could not bring himself to claim her as his though he wanted nothing more. In his office he had dozed off, his thoughts going to a certain young woman. His mind had been playing tricks on him, showing the future he wanted them to have. It would never happen.

If love was supposed to be a good thing, then why did it have to hurt so much?

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

And yet, no matter how hard he tried to tell himself this, she would not leave him alone. She plagued his thoughts day and night.

Every time she smiled at him he had to keep himself from taking her into his arms and touching her soft skin.

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go
Just Let me go...
Let me go

He needed to get a hold of himself. Shaking his head as if that would get rid of those thoughts he rested his head in his hands.

And no matter how hard I try
I can't escape these things inside I know
I know...
When all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows
Who knows

He let out a frustrated sigh. She would be there when his world came crashing down, that was what she had whispered into his ear. For some reason that had comforted him, knowing that she would be there for him. In a way, she read him better than his siblings even.

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know Who I am
So let me go
Just let me go

She could never understand what he had been through. How could she claim to know him if she did not even know his past? Yet she could read him so well.

As he continued to watch her while she interacted with some of her students he couldn't help but admire her. How he wished she could be his. He knew she loved him, though he never comprehended why…

And you love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't know who I am
And you love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't know me

She had now disappeared from his sight.

"You love me, but you don't know who I am." He said, his words breaking the silence.

"Then allow me to get to know you, Gaara."

He turned around, mentally berating himself for dropping his guard. "Sakura."

She smiled at him. And surprisingly that was all it took. He took her into his arms, kissing her as if their lives depended on it. Her response was just as passionate as she pulled him even closer.

Things had fallen into place as he watched the woman now walking next to him, relishing the way she made him feel. Maybe there was hope after all, his lips curving up into a small smile. He was more than willing to give her the chance to get to know him.
