Yeah, more lovely Inu/Kag mush... I wrote this several months ago for no particular reason and just forgot about it until now. Reviews please! Let me know if it sucks!

Why does she suffer me

Silently

To break her

To treat her like my toy?

Why does she let herself be played with?

Why does she never stop me from hurting her

Why does she make no cry

As the claws of my callousness sink into her heart?

How can she forgive me

For every bitter word

and thoughtless action

that must have been more painful to her

than a blow from my hand?

How can she not find me repulsive

When I go crazy

And come away soaked with innocent blood?

How can she treat the wounds of every careless battle

And have the patience not to say

"I told you so?"

How can she look at me so warmly

And hold my clawed hand in her own

The hand that has killed so many

And neither despise me

Nor cringe in fear of me

Nor resent my misbegotten existence?

How can she love this broken half-man that I am?

And how can I

Show her

That I love her

More than anything

More than my whole life?
