A Demon Shifter's Thoughts
...
Lucy wasn't what Mirajane expected her to be
When the blonde first walked through the door
The girl no older than her sister seemed like just another wannabe
Her eyes downcast and blonde hair a typical bore
...
Oh, how wrong she had been
The mage was unexpectedly tough
With eyes so silver they sheened with her easy grin
And yet she had believed it to be all a bluff
...
A child who drew her friends toward her
Like moths to an open fire
Like a long-lost cousin with a mystery, they all prefer
For all she seemed Mirajane didn't expect her thoughts to backfire
...
Because she was wrong and like usual it wasn't the first time
And yet, Mirajane couldn't find it within herself to dislike the girl
For Lucy had been there for her family at anytime
And slowly her own jagged heart begun to unfurl
...
She wondered if all Celestial mages were like the blonde
With eyes dulled from hardship yet beams a smile so real
It makes Mirajane admire her strength beyond
What would take her years for her own soul to heal
...
Perhaps, however, she's still fighting
For Lucy seems to grow older and wearier by every passing day
The bags under her eyes shading darker under the lighting
With bruises and bone fractures hidden with a carefully concealed sway
...
Yes, Lucy Chance was an enigma in Fairy Tail
But she had taught her the means of strength to prevail
