Hi all! Heh...it's been a while...Just thought I'd upload this quick poem. It uses a LOT more symbolism than my other work. I wanted to expermint a little maybe...? Do me a favor and tell me what you think about it! My thoughts on the days of Tomoe and Kenshin living together. Tomoe's perspective.
Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin. Period.
Infinity is a Sin
-------
We are on a hill
Blinking, your eyes are bottomless and dull,
But small smiles placate my face.
In the distance, we see that heaven is bleeding
You blink harder as we watch the light fade,
and wonder how blood droplets become stars in the twilight.
We know this cannot be real, this sky
It is too soft for this stark earth
My god, my Death,
The hill rumbles as if filled with rage
And I fall away from you, still yearning
to hold you in that secret way
But we are born dreamers,
Content with the nonexistent and with the night
We assure ourselves that this can never dissolve.
No tie is stronger than its maker.
Crushing, this earth will swallow us
And the sky will turn away, for it knows
Its end is near.
