Turtlequeen2: This is Inuyasha’s thoughts in poetry form…or at least my assumption of it.

Inuyasha: Keh! Like you know what I’m thinking.

Turtlequeen2: Oh, so why do you blush whenever Kagome hugs you?

Inuyasha: *blushes* I don’t know what you’re talking about wench!

Turtlequeen2: Right…Anyways I don’t own Inuyasha, Rumiko Takahashi does. I own these poems though!

Reminiscence of Kikyo

Kagome often wonders of what I’m thinking of on bright days

I’m often thinking of the Kikyo I once knew

The one who was once alive and caring

She, who often sat by me under the Goshinboku

 

Who often told me that we were both the same

We were forced to hide our emotions from the world

Our weakness

Who taught me to trust another after mother died

 

Who opened my soul for love again

Who for once, didn’t shun me for what I was

I was willing to live my life with her

As a human

 

Now, Kikyo is a shadow of her former self

She is dead and unfeeling

The one I once loved is unable to rest in peace

The one I failed to protect

 

How was our trust broken so easily if we were to live together?

How were we to be if we were separated?

Is Kagome supposed to be the one I’m supposed to be with?

The one who will continue to heal my soul where Kikyo left off?

 

How painful was it to be betrayed by the one you loved

To feel dead inside and out

I should have died then

But Kagome saved me

 

Is she my salvation?

Is Kikyo meant to be amongst the dead?

Why does everyone say Kagome is Kikyo’s reincarnation?

They are two separate people

 

Kikyo and Kagome are night and day

Kikyo was my past

Is Kagome my future?

Do I still harbor love for Kikyo, for the past-

The past unlived?

The one that was never finished?

 

Kikyo, I still have to protect you

Your presence still haunts me, with guilt and sadness

Of what we didn’t finish

Should we continue where we left off,

Or do I have a new person in my life to be with?
