<i/> The Day After/Inspiration At A Cost <i/>

He lay in bed trying to stop the tears from falling yet again. (How am I still able to cry? I cried so much yesterday there should be nothing left.)
Truth be told he knew why. Today was the first day since he laid the man he loved to rest, and now he was in their bed his face burried in <i/>HIS<i/>
pillow. His scent was everywhere in this room. It was almost as if he himself were still here. This thought made more tears fall. The fact was he knew Reno was never coming home again, new that his love was gone forever. But that was not why it hurt so much, no the pain he felt right now was from the fact that every time he closed his eyes he could see his face. When he was in a room all alone he could hear the rich baritone voice laugh and ask him why he was so sad. Like now. Reno was sitting on the edge of the bed staring at him.
" Babe, you need to stop acting like such a baby. Your crying more than I was worth yo!"
" How can you not expect me to cry Reno?! I just lost you! I can never hold you again, or kiss you again!"
This brought on another bout of tears and loud open sobs.

He kept his eyes closed and tried not to listen to the imaginary voice that whispered sweet nothings into his ears.
" Just go away! I know your not really there! Just go and leave me in peace!"
And just like that the voice was gone. When he opened his eyes the vision was gone as well. He looked at the alarm clock and saw that it was already 02:00 am. Knowing he was not going to be able to go back to sleep now, he got out of bed and walked into his recording office. He made his way to his electric piano that was connected to an Apple IMac desk top and began preparing to clear his mind of the unusual lyrics flying around in his head.

He struck the first few keys that came to mind and wrote some corrisponding words onto a pad. He continued this process untill he had the entire song written down. He then reached over on his computer and turned on the automatic switch board and record booth. Then he popped his knuckles, a habit that made him laugh, and began the process of putting his thoughts to sound. His deep bass voice echoed in the studio as he began to sing;

( Im so tired of being here,
Surpressed by all of my childish fears,
If you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave,
Cuz your presence still lingers here
And it wont leave me alone)

Tears began to fill his eyes once more and the sadness he felt began to come to life in the chorus,

(These wounds wont seem to heal,
This pain is just to real,
Theres just too much that time cannot erase,
When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years,
And you still haunt all of me...)

Thinking back on everything they did together and had together he let a soft sad smile on his face as he continued on..

( You used to captivate me by your resignating light,
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind)

As he begins the next verse, the vision appears beside him on the bench and the tears fall again..

(Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams,
Your voice has chased away all the sanity in me...)

The amount of desperation and sadness took its toll and he began out right crying as he finnished his song..

(These wounds wont seem to heal,
This pain is just to real,
Theres just too much that time cannot erase,
When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears,
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears,
And I held your hand through all of these years,
And you still haunt all of me...)

When he sings the last remaing voice his entire heart shatters into a million pieces and the agony is recorded in the song.

(I've tried so hard to tell myself that your gone,
And though your still with me,
I've been alone along...)

Broken, tear stained and tired he leaves his office to return to bed forgetting to turn the computer off...
(" My Sesshoumaru, always know that I loved you and that I will always be with you no matter what. Try to move on with your life and be happy again.")
