Anyway, a new idea struck me and...well...he're a sestina in Subaru's POV. Standard Disclaimers here====> Heaven by Shinri Ayase Haven't you seen Heaven? Why haven't you touched the skies, Worn the clouds Nor kiss softly the stone cheek Of an angel once respected? Why, why have you dared not love? Why can't you love? Are you afraid of Heaven? Please...don't fear the skies. Walk with me, walk upon clouds Feel my warm tears caress your frozen cheek. I pray that my request be respected. And it will be respected! And I will show you love! I promise you, we'll paint Heaven And hang it upon the skies Add sunset colors with paintbrush clouds! It will...bring life to your cheek. How silken is your cheek! By loving you, never again will I be respected. But I promised I will give you love Even if I give up Heaven Even if I am forced to be blind to the blue skies Even if I could no longer walk the clouds I will love you, even if it means leaving the clouds Though I prophecy your blood on my cheek, It shall not be betrayal, your memory always respected They tell me that I cling to blind love But I don't mind being blind, THIS is my Heaven. And yet I wonder, is it wrong of me to leave the skies? For you, I left the skies. I have long seen my tears on the clouds I have long felt the moist hopelessness on my cheek Maybe I never was respected. Maybe it's foolish to try teaching you love. But...YOU are are all that's left of my Heaven You are my love, you alone respected, And all through the skies, clouds, and Heavens, No one can erase the memory of your ivory cheek. ==================== Whoa. I don't know what got into me. Maybe it's because I was thinking of Subaru's desperate state of mind after Seishirou's revelation... Oh, well...</pre><p><a href="./">Back</a></p><p><a href=http://www.dreamhost.com/donate.cgi?id=216><img border=0 alt="Donate towards our web hosting bill!" src=https://secure.newdream.net/donate1.gif></a></p></body></html>
