I am still alive. This is proof. But I promise you that I am working on the last chapter of Birthdays (Jay is currently opening birthday presents). But I have a surprise for you all. Instead of getting one poem to try and tone down any Birthdays hunger, I'm giving you two! This one is the first as I started working on this a few days ago and finally got it finished, the second was written within about an hour. Also, there was no intention of the subject of both poems being the same person. It just happened that way. I just like to think of different possibilities for people. Multi-verse kind of... Anyway, enjoy!
Confusing Emotions
How did this all happen?
I seriously have no clue
But suddenly during battle
All I can see is you
It's kind of funny really
When you think of how life's been
We're always at each other's throats
Always trying to make a scene
You'd growl something about me
When we're home that is
It sometimes makes my heart flutter
Yet my mind would get in a tizz
And I'd growl right on back
Almost setting your fists aflame
Before things would somehow settle
And we'd fight through video games
But today things were different
As that whip grabbed at your wrist
Despite you easily burning the weapon
It still made my guts twist
That's why I was suddenly there
Electrocuting the foe
Because suddenly I wanted to help you
It wasn't just for show
But still you grumbled about it
Even as you gave your thanks
And before I could say anything
You were back amongst enemy ranks
Now I don't know what to feel
Now that we're back home
And I may have hid myself away
Despite not wanting to be alone
The image in my mind, you see
Was of that whip around your neck
Even now as it invades my thoughts
I have to keep my tears in check
I know something within me broke
There's no denying what I feel
Because even as I write this
I know my love is real
But now I hear your footsteps
Coming to my door
You'll want to know what happened
But can I tell you all?
Can I tell you that I love you?
So soon should I try?
Or should I confirm in myself
That I really love you Kai?
