Past Lovers

Its been about a week since my last post, so here’s a little something I wrote keeping the bleach theme going. It is from Matsumoto Rangiku’s point of view to Ichimaru. Please keep in mind I still haven’t completed bleach and have only watched till about episode 70 or so. Hope you like it.

You’re always leaving,
Without telling me,
Where you’re leaving to…

And you are always,
On my mind,
But I never get the chance,
To tell you…

I want to know,
What you’re thinking,
Why are you doing,
The things you’re doing,
What’s the reason,
Behind your thinking…

Everyone tells me,
Not to trust you,
But I know that,
You will never hurt me…

You always say these,
Silly things,
That make me think,
Maybe just maybe,
We could be a thing…

Come back safe…

Remember

Haha so another Bleach one. I’m really loving the anime at the moment and it has some interesting relationships, and friendships. This one is from Captain 7: Komamura Sajin to his best friend Captain 9:Tōsen Kaname.

Remember what you said you fighting for,
Why you became a part of the soul society,
The vow you made to yourself,
And to your friend…

If you could see the chaos,
You were creating,
Or all the people you were hurting,
Would you still,
Be betraying us like this…

I remember when we first meet,
You were different from the rest,
Non-judging and understanding….

We became the best of friends,
Helping each other to the end,
To try and achieve the goals we set…

But this is something that,
Is unforgivable…

What can I say,
To make you change your mind,
And stop this craziness…

I will protect you

So I got to Episode 63 of Bleach when you hear about why Kuchiki Byakuya was so cold towards Rukia, his past and the reason for her being taken into a noble family. This is a little thing I wrote from Kuchiki’s to Rukia. The ‘her’ whom he is referring to is Rukia’s older sister Hisana.

Sorry it took so long,
For me to realize,
That my duty was to you…

Promised your sister,
I’d protect you…

But I was in two minds,
Made two vows.
Didn’t know which path,
To take…

Call me a fool,
It took someone,
To wake me up,
To make me understand that,
You were the more important than anything…

So I’m sorry it took me so long,
to react to the situation,
That almost got you killed…

To look you in the eye,
And tell you the truth….

It’s just you remind me,
So much of her…
And I didn’t do enough,
If I did,
Mmaybe she would have lived…

You are the only link to the one I love,
You have become my baby sister,
I will be the replacement for her,
If you let me…

I will forever protect you,
Even if it costs me my life…

Why?

Bleach again, still only on episode 49. I wrote this as if it was Momo Hinamori as she’s fighting her childhood friend Tōshirō Hitsugaya whom it is about.

Why,
Did it have to be you,
Out of everyone…

The one who,
I’ve always,
Wanted to protect,
My best friend…

When I raise my weapon,
The memories come flooding in…

When we first met,
I felt a connection,
Like no other before…

It was like I knew you,
My entire life,
I felt like,
I could tell you anything…

I just can’t bring myself,
To do it,
Even if it is to,
Avenge my captain….

I can’t hurt you,
Cause it would be,
Like hurting myself…

Part of me loves you,
More than moral words can say,
Beyond the restrictions of form,
Or this society….

Bound Brothers

Haha ok I am really into Bleach at moment. So this is Yasutora ‘Chad’ Sado’s point of view to Ichigo Kurosaki. I wrote it as watched Bleach. Hope you like it.

Some friendships may come and go,
But ours will last for eternity…

We’re brothers bound and connected together,
By forces stronger than blood…

We’ll fight together until the end,
I will never lose,
Cause I made a promise to you,
To have your back always…

Regardless of what you need,
I will be there,
Cause I know that if it was me,
You would be there,
To save me…

So I’ll protect what you hold dear brother,
Like you did for me,
Even if it costs me my life…

If I survive we shall renew our promise brother…

My Bright Light

So I watched another few episodes of Bleach, where you find out Renji & Rukia’s history together. So this is from Renji to Rukia:

Ever since I was little,
All I ever wanted,
Was for us to be together

Being the poorest,
We went through so many hardships,
But we had some good times too,

I would travel round the world,
To stay by your side,
But I couldn’t even,
Tell you my true feelings…

I was angry at myself for letting you go,
Scared I was going to lose you,
Sad that I would be alone,
All I ever wanted,
Was for you to be happy…

Kept telling myself,
Not to interfere,
Believed you would find happiness,

Ever since I remember,
You were braver than any man I know,
Righteous to the core,
The classiest,
And most beautiful girl I know,
You stood out from the rest of us,
You are the bright shining light in my life…

But when he took you away,
Your smile seemed to fade…

I trained to surpass him,
And become the stronger man,
Hoping to win you back that way…

But to this day,
I haven’t beat him,
I don’t have the strength,
To get you back that way…

So I’ll swallow my shame and pride,
And beg this orange hair guy,
You seem put so much faith in,
To save you…

Please be safe Rukia,
You’re the only one,
I have left…

Just wait a little longer

Another Bleach inspired piece. So the other day I wrote something from  Rukia Kunchiki’s point of view, so yesterday I wrote this from Ichigo Kurosaki’s point of veiw to Rukia Kunchiki. Please bare in mind I’m still only on episode 30 so have no idea how their relationship is going to go, I just like the idea of them two haha.

I’m coming to save you,
So just wait a little longer,
Don’t lose hope…

Why didn’t you tell me,
That if you gave me,
What you gave me,
Your life would be on the line.
You’re always saving me,
I promise to return the favour…

But all I really want to do is,
Protect you,
Like your always protecting me….

You’ve begun to mean,
More and more to me,
Never thought,
You would have this effect on me…

You gave my life,
More meaning,
Than I ever knew before,
Made my life a little more interesting…

You opened up a world,
I never knew existed…

Now your not here with me,
I’m wandering,
Whats running through your mind,
If your ok…
Will you smile when you see me again…

Our entwined lives,
Constantly running through my mind,
Memories of us,
Fighting side by side,
Our eyes linking,
Across the battlefield,
Reading each other,
Through our actions…

Know this,
I will get stronger for you,
I will be the shoulder for you to cry on,
The anchor for you to lean on…

And if you have no-one else,
Know that you will always have me,
Regardless of the distance,
Our hearts will always be connected,
To one another…

I still have so many questions,
But know one thing for a fact,
I will be with you,
When you need me,
I will be the one who makes you smile…

So wait for me,Just a little longer,
Cause I’m almost there…

For You

So I have finally started watching Bleach a bit late I know but I am on about episode 30, so I wrote this from Rukia Kunchiki’s point of view to Ichigo Kurosaki . Please bare in mind I have no idea how their relationship is going to go, I just like the idea of them two haha.

What is it about you?
That made me,
Go soft inside…

Before you,
I could cover my feelings,
Just did my job,
As a soul reaper,
And carried on…

But for you,
I gave up everything,
Knew that one day,
They’d come for me…

Thought you were done and gone,
But you came back to save me…

There’s so many things I need to tell you,
But I don’t know how…
All I know is I want to stay by your side,
Helping you in any way I can…

I think I love you…
