Title: Honoured Future

Pride her own

Honour for the one with silver light

Glimmering upon blade and raven locks

Blood the price of her insolence

The Kuchiki Family

She couldn't fail

See desolation

Cruel honesty

In sharp Nobel eyes

Staring at her

Unaccusing

So lost and confused

A storm-wrecked ship

Tossed and turned upon endless waves

Was she the Lightning

Providing salvation

Orange like radiant sunshine

He took away the darkness

Even as that visage

A painful reflection

Of all she once Knew

Her heart carried inside this chest

Held him close

The rain bites like acid

Just as the pain in her heart

He's bleeding

Crimson life's vital force

Staining pavement in deathly hues

They're there

Red and Black like the night

Honour she must uphold it

Always

He's so cold

This childhood friend long gone

Just like her brother

But they're family

She supposes so

Tangerine feathers echo his own

Sacrifice and Honour

She want to run back

To those warm mornings

Happy chatter

Bright smiles and goofy antics

Rukia turns those times are past

She will live on those

Like the fruitful nectar of time

Acceptance of her Fate is easy

It's her duty

To her clan

Brother

Friend

But not to Ichigo

Not to herself

Or Kaien

The gates shimmer

Like the departure of Butterflies

From their Chrysalis

Leave

Don't look back

The future

Short and stale

Is ahead
