InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Inuyasha's Book of Poetry ❯ Untitled ( Chapter 3 )

Behold!
a tattered soul
cut and bruised
hurt beyond recognitions
Come
Look
Have you ever seen such a battered soul?!
And yet look there
it glows silver
yes it's still good
this tattered, battered soul
that has taken it left and right
only stood up a few times in defense
and yet it's still good.
Are you not amazed?!
That with all it's beating
it's still good
even with its demon half.
Come!
Look!
Will you take this worthless, battered soul home?
Would you nurse? Love it? Care for it?
Who would want this worthless, tattered, battered soul?
Would you?
Take this soul?
This soul with blood on its hands?
This soul that everyone has tried to destroy?
This soul with a murderer inside?
This soul with it rough walls of protection?
This soul.........
Will you give it shelter, hope?
Will you heal it?
Can I trust you with it?
Can I trust you
with my heart?
So many scars
so many let downs
so much pain
I
want to
but
the past says, no
I don't think I could stand another blow
another one and I may shatter
So you understand why
I have to ask these questions
I have to be cautious

Give me time to learn
then may be
if time is fair
then I'll let you have this
tired
worn
battered
soul
