Well this is my first posting, and I'm kind of nervous. This wasn't intended to be a fan-poem at first, though, it was loosely inspired by it. It was inspired by a still-work-in-progress (WIP) thing in my head that's Hiei/original character (OC), but I thought it better…fit Hiei/Kurama. This, as in my opinion is obvious, from Kurama's POV. Enjoy. Review your thoughts, just don't flame for the male/male pairing please, you ignorant fool who would.


How Could I Not

I know you're not perfect,

Don't mock me with those damned words

How could I love you?

How could I not.

You're more than I hoped for,

Your nothing like my dreams

You're not perfect

How could I not love you?

I don't want perfection

I want you

All your faults

Don't try to change to change my mind

And hide behind your god-forsaken-walls

Listen to what I have to say

I've see how you look at me

When you think I'm not looking at you

But I'm always looking when you're around

How could I not

You're not perfect

You don't try to be

And I don't want you to be

How could I not love you the way that you are?

I know you want this

Why are you so afraid

Are you afraid to open up

Let some-one inside those walls of yours

Let me inside those walls of yours

Do you think I won't like what I'll find in there

How naïve

You think I can't see past most of the walls you still keep up

Even when I'm the only one around,

Don't you?

Your right I can't

Not clearly

But I see your essence clearly enough, (as lame as that sounds)

To take this risk

Of impending rejection

Because I trust what I see with all of my heart and soul

And I ask you this:

How could I not?
