A/N: I had detention today because of unexcused tardies (so gay) and I had nothing to do so I thought I'd try and write a poem. This kind of wrote itself but when I looked back on it I liked it so I hope you all will too. Rated R for suicide. Enjoy!

 

Goodbyes said too late by Hitsugayaluver

 

Icy eyes made of burning amber

Peer into a troubled soul

One whose warmth spreads over all

Yet receives only burdens of life's toll

 

Except from the one that guards her

The one that makes her whole

The one who's peering into the depths

Of her very troubled soul

 

And as the eyes burn deeper and deeper

Down into her core

She sees in them a light, a flicker

An emotion none have seen before

 

He loves her, she knows this

But they could never be

Because demons live in a different world

Than those the same as she

 

They're not meant to be together

Doing so only brings pain

Because one will die and one will live

Forever a life of shame

 

So he's leaving her here all alone

With those whom she can trust

Although he does not want to go

He knows in his heart he must

 

And so they say their final words

Not with their mouths, but eyes

And as he turns and walks away

Silently she cries

 

He hears her tears fall to the ground

And smells the salty scent

But does not stop and still walks on

Away to where he's meant

 

She watches him until he's gone

And can no longer see

The one who stole her heart from her

And threw away the key

 

And as she stands there feeling lost

Abandoned and afraid

She pulls suddenly from its sheath

Her hidden tanto blade

 

It was a gift to her from long ago

But now a deadly tool

To use for what she truly needs

She won't be made a fool

 

And now the blade connects with wrist

On the skin a line of red

And then it streams and trickles down

Soon she will be dead

 

And as she falls first to her knees

Then limply to her side

Her vision goes in and out

And darkness soon resides

 

But as she's lying still there

Broken on the ground

She whispers out just one last thing

A strange and foreign sound

 

And then she goes and slips away

And leaves forevermore

Behind the life she once did have

It's now an even score

 

Her final words hang in the air

And receive a mournful cry

From the one who came too late

But in time to see her die

 

He had come back to tell her

What she had just told him

And now he wants to join her

He wants his life to end

 

But he knows it will not happen

So he leaves her with a sigh

Rin's words will stay with him forever

I will always love you

Sesshomaru-sama, goodbye
