Ichiruki Week - Day 7 - OBSESSIONRukia's leaving. Packing things into bags, concentrating, with a slight frown, on her future. It is, Byakuya reminds himself, what he has always wanted for her. She's dwelt too much in the past, on the things that might have been different. Lifetimes here last too long for regrets. She needs to move on, so why does he feel so ill at ease, watching her from the doorway.Ichiruki Week - Day 7 - OBSESSION9 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
"You can't ask him to die for you." The words have left his mouth before he realises he intends to say them. How unlike him, he thinks.
She looks up, startled, but more by his presence than his outburst. She's been so busy that she failed to notice his approach. How unlike he

Hisana's Story 8 - The Captain of the SixthThe streets of the sereitei were wide. The people were clean and well-dressed and everyone seemed to have somewhere to go. Hisana was used to seeing people drift through Rukongai or loiter in alleys, but no-one paused here. No-one stared forward with empty eyes. If they hesitated, it was because they were bowing to the man who was walking with one hand resting against the small of her back.Hisana's Story 8 - The Captain of the Sixth10 months ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
"Must you hold my hand that way?" she had asked as they'd stepped out of the gated mansion.
"What way?" he'd asked.
"Any way."
He'd let go of her hand and gently placed his at her back, guiding her through the streets.
She felt lost in his world. Havi

tiredThere is no light in my eyes.tired11 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I am tired.
Is it an emotional tiredness?
I can't tell.
I don't know the difference any more.
Cold water on my temples
to try and wake me.
My face is blank
and I appear hollow.
When you come
will that bring me to life?
It used to.
But everything is different
these past few weeks.
I can't keep up.
I feel like an alien.
Everything social
is a chore.
Every conversation
is in a foreign tounge.

Spilling your

I must avenge you.
I need to hurt

I cling

But the hero

The evil-doer

And through her
suffering
I will heal.

Your face welcomed me
Your smile was happy
Your eyes comforted me
The second time I saw you
Your face was blank
Your smile was straight
Your eyes were distant
The third time I saw you
Your face was furious
Your smile would never return
Your eyes glowed with hatred
You screamed at me
You broke my heart
You started to walk away
Then I said I was sorry
And you smiled
But not the smile that was happy
Or straight
Or that would never return
It was a smile that held the devil's laughter
It was a smile that would be the death of me
And you knew it

A world of rule
A rule you have to follow to survive.
A rule that whenever you follow it
It is always bent
Not to your favour
But the Rulermaker
A world that every truth you say
Is seen as a lie
A world where there is sadness behind
Every smile
A world you're told you have free will.
But you have to watch your back before lifting a finger
Can't we just be free like an Eagle in the sky?
And not a Caged Bird
To be able to smile without happiness
Not covering up sadness beneath our soul
And heart.
A time to shout out and rejoice with jubilation
Without any worry

I think we all have a specific purpose that we are meant to accomplish. Deep inside my heart, I feel a burst of energy waiting to errupt and fill my body with adrenaline. I feel the tingle inside of my head, echoing in my ears as the words form into sentences. Telling me that what I desire most is to be heard.
I do not have a voice of my own, people would rarely listen to it anyway. But I do have words. Words begging to play their part i

Him. They stared at each other through the thin pane of UV protection for a moment before recognition sketched itself across the lines of her face. Linda Johnson's body sagged as she realized she'd been found. This time, sitting in the corner of a well-known Italian coffee shop, she knew there was no way out.

Well first, I must say that I love you. I really do with all my heart. I realize that I don't know you, or maybe I do? Who are you? Who are we? Are we? I have loved before, but only been hurt.

Would it be okay if I say, I've had enough of your presence in my life?
You're too much of everything I hate
of all the things, you annoy me.
I wish you were gone and would fade away like you never existed.
But still you were there reminding me
of all the wrong things,
The bad memories,
The irritating personalities,
The foolish behaviors,
The selfish self,
and lastly
The sad and gloomy
State of mind.
I did something to hide you,
I can simply toss you aside,
Put a mask on

"Your poison of choice?"
I've yet to hear anybody reply that they don't have one,
don't want one, don't need one, and if they did,
I wouldn't, couldn't believe them,
for we are human and all we are essentially doing
is destroying ourselves, and if possible, we do it
with creativity, so our life drains away slowly,
because we want to live - we want to live forever -
but we cannot bear to carry our souls at all
and everybody knows that this can't work,
never will, and should the human mind be able
to wrap itself around the concept of eternity,
well, to put it simply, we will all be screwed -
maybe even more so than we already are.

Love sucks
Love is stupid
Who needs love?
I thought
While I secretly thirst for one drop of love.
I am the unloved among the loved
The unwanted
The non-existing among the existing
Thinking of you
Reaching for you
Yet unreachable
Wanting you yet pushing you aside.
Deceiving myself in my illusions of happiness
I reach out, reach out and reach out for you
But no matter how much I reach out
You are always one step away from me.
All alone in the dark corner
If only I could reach you
Hold you in my arms
My forehead against yours
Staring into your dreamy blue eyes
Then am a new being
Reborn
