A/N: Ahahahah so...It's been a couple years right? Time to jump back in? Golly, I hope all the story still runs together. Please, please forgive me! I am terribly sad I quit writing this story. I have returned! So here is a tiny tiny piece to bring the story back in. Lee knows about Gaara now. This is pre-exam okay? Sorry it's so short :(
Eternity is a long time
Life and Death?
They are the same to an eternity.
But these are the things
I am promised by my demon.
There is a monster
Hiding in my dreams
Whispering love and sweet nothings.
He strokes my hair and kisses my brow
He is strong and powerful.
In my dreams, this angel
Touches my heart with tender hands
His soul is the same as mine.
I want to let him in.
Just before the dream ends I look down
He is touching my heart.
His hand is deep inside my chest, clasped around
My life.
It hurts.
It hurts!
The dreams are never pleasant.
A nightmare.
The monster begins to pull
Dragging my heart from it's cavity.
"Stop!"
My words do nothing
Mean nothing
To this demon.
I cannot move, cannot turn away.
My eyes are locked on emeralds.
Wisps of red drift across my face
As teeth are bared and the scent
Of death and blood
Seep from behind them.
I am caught unaware by how
Beautiful
This demon is.
Demon?
The words coming from that tainted mouth
Reach me, comfort me.
I am not alone.
I am loved.
So why
When I wake covered in sweat,
Do I fear him?
I have seen the porcelain monster
I watched him try to kill my father
I saw his expression as I punch him.
There have been whispers of a
Gaara of the Sand.
A boy with a demon inside.
A boy
Who eats the hearts of any who
Come before him.
But I have stood before him
Touched him with the very wind
Chased him away with a single hit.
I am still alive.
Still whole.
Why should I fear him?
There is an angel
Watching over my dreams.
He tells me I am wonderful and strong.
I am the wind and he is the sand.
And together we should be,
For eternity.
