My Bright Light

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

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

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

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

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

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…

Never Want to Let You Go

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

Ok so I have not written anything in a while, been a bit busy I guess studying for my master degree.(Sounds good right hahaha) It actually is a pretty good course and I am enjoying it a lot! Anyways this is a little something I wrote as I listened to this beat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkoEWm4Bovs Not entirely sure how I came up with this song, I guess I picked a theme and wrote about it. But I do not always write in this way sometimes I brainstorm a bunch of stuff. To be honest it just depends what mood I am in. Anyway I hope you like it…=)

Hey this is for you.

Running through the streets,
After you…
Never wanting to let you go….

Always wanting to stand by you,
Your my love, your my boo…
You know me inside and out,
Seen all the good and the bad…

Yet you’ve stood by me,
For better or for worse,
Regardless of everything I’ve done…

I never want to let you go….
Always want to stand by you,
Your my everything…
Your my love, your my boo…

Time feels frozen as I am,
Dancing in your arms tonight…
Don’t know what I would do,
Without you standing by my side…

I never want to let you go….
Always want to stand by you,
Your my everything…
Your my love, your my boo…

Crazy as times have been,
You’ve always stood by me…
It’s been two and half years now,
I wuv you…
And thank you for everything…

The Grimm’s Snow White a.k.a Snowdrop

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

The apple is as red as my lips,
This is what the old woman gives,
But could it be,
That beautiful wicked witch.
The one who sent a hunter after me…

For I am the centre of her jealously,
She is using all her power,
To get rid of me…

After she found out,
The hunter had set me free,
Realizing he couldn’t do her evil deed,
She tried to get me again and again…
And would have succeed,
But each time I was saved,
By my several dwarf friends…
And they warned me continuously,
Not to accept things from those I do not know…

Saying:
“Beware of your step-mother,
She will soon know that you are here,
Be sure to let no one come in…”

But it couldn’t be this old lady,
For she seems harmless enough…,

I’m sure just one bite,
Won’t hurt,
Plus she has even shown me,
With a BITE!
And nothing has happened to her…

So I take a….BITE*

Oh no,
What is this feeling,
What a mistake I have made,
I should not have trusted the old lady,
Her laugh pierces my ears…

The beautiful apple is poisoned,
Why didn’t I listen?
To the dwarfs,
Who’s care I was in…

Now I’m falling….
My life seems so very short lived…

Several Years pass…

Oh…Who has awakened me?
A handsome prince it seems…
Could he be my lover?
I hardly know him,
But he saved me…

So I guess I’m in his debt…

But first I’ll pay back that woman,
Who put me in this situation,
For in hot iron shoes,
She will be continuously dancing to the beat,
Until she fades away for eternity …

Now I am free of her,
It is my time to live my life,
Happily ever after…

Sunshine

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

Tinkle’s knocking together,
Unknowingly creating sweet, sweet melody…

The sight is so, so beautiful…
As the sun comes out to play…
Finally letting go…
Of the coldness that drags it back….

Avoiding the clouds,
And shining brightly…
Its cheerfulness is back…

Making those around it smile…

Even though its been a while…
It vibrantly glows out…
Glistens over the sea…

 Making everyone happy…
Now the sunshine has come out….

For my little bro

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

Yesterday, was my little brother’s 14th birthday! So this is a little something I wrote for him, to let him know how much he means to me as a little brother, regardless of how annoying he can be sometimes, he can also be funny and sweet. So in my opinion he’s the best little brother I could ask for. So this is for you, you little smart-ass 😛

Hope you like it.

Cousin and little brother
Cousin and little brother

Hey bro,

You’ve helped me out a lot,

In past…

And I just wanted to say thank you…

 

 

And that,

As your older sister,

I’ll always be there for ya…

I’ll be the person you can talk to,

The one who will lend you a hand..

Cause they say bloods stronger than water…

So I’ll always, always be there ya.

 

 

And although I may tease you,

You never take it to heart…

So we have a lot of laughs…

As your older sister,

I’ll always be there for ya…

 

 

14 years gone by,

And I still remember,

When you were,

so small…

following me around,

copying everything I said,

and trying to do everything I did…

 

 

But now your almost,

taller than me…

And your getting more mature,

Finding your own way,

Your own path…

 

 

 

As your older sister,

I’ll always be there for ya…

 

 

Regardless of what happens in the future,

You’ll always be my little brother…

Much Love little bro

My little brother!
My little brother!

You Make Me Smile :D

Posted on by Elizabeth Han Hopkins

Concept and Summary:

A lot of people have at least that one person who will always make them smile, whether it’s a best friend, a lover, someone they know or even a stranger. It’s the idea that this person makes all your worries seem like nothing, and its the kind of love that even if you’re not with that person in any kind of relationship, so long as they’re happy or content your happy 🙂 Hope you like it. Feel free to leave any feedback, thoughts or experiences you have in the comment section 🙂

People who make me smile! Yi Dao!

I don’t know why…

2 Girls who have made me smile since the start of Uni. :)

But when I see …you,

I can’t help but smile.

 

 

And when your near,

I feel my heart,

beat a little faster…

 

 

And when I wake up, every morning,

I look forward to seeing you,

Hoping that I can talk to you…

 

 

I don’t know why…

But when I see …you,

Bboy crew! Just a few who made me smile
Bboy crew! Just a few who made me smile

I can’t help but smile.

 

 

And when I’m upset,

You make everything, alright,

Like there was nothing to fret about;

And as if nothing ever happen at all…

 

 

When your around I feel safe,

Don’t need nobody else,

Cause I’ll be fine and content…

So long as your by my side…

 

 

I don’t know why…

But when I see …you,

High school friends who were there for me since the start <3 and there's many others
High school friends who were there for me since the start

I can’t help but smile.

 

 

And as long as your happy,

I’ll be happy too…

 

 

Oooo… I love you….
