[edit] I posted these before they were able to be dedicated because I wanted to make sure it was okay with the person I was dedicating them to. She said it was okay, so I can now dedicate them.

These two poems are dedicated to Yami no Kaze. She is an angel inside and out, no matter what she says.

Mirror Image (Hisoka to Hijiri)

I see him, my mirror image,
staring back at me with a smile I could never return.
He's so much better than me, but he treats me as an equal,
showering me with an affection I could never have deserved.
How can he love me so, when I can’t even love myself?
He tells me he loves me….but can I trust him?
There were others who said the same and only took away
The frail heart I offered.
Despite the failures of the past, I feel I can trust him,
Even though common sense tells me otherwise.
I know I trust him, but is that my wishful heart calling out
for flaming failure once again?
I want to know, but there’s no guarantee.
For now, all I can do is follow to where my heart will lead
And give him the trust he asks for. Please, boy,
Mirror image of myself and everything I want to be,
Don’t hurt me

Mirror Image (Hijiri to Hisoka)

I see you, my mirror image,
Looking at me with eyes reflecting emeralds.
I see your fear of me clearly, but all I wish for is to love you.
I won’t ask for your body. I won’t ask for your heart,
Just as long as you let me protect you from the things that
Threaten to hurt you most.
I know that there have been times when life is not well,
But I want to be the one who makes you forget.
I want to bring you the joy that you have brought to me.
I love you with all of my heart and soul,
And swear on everything I believe in that I would never hurt you.
So please, even if you don’t really love me,
Just let me be close to you
My mirror image

Aww unrequited fauxcest

It's beautiful. I love Hisoka's especially for some reason. (Because we all know he never smiles--that's why it took me the longest time to realize that 'Yes they really DO share the same face' XDDD)

I love the way you wrote the poems both in Hisoka and Hijri's perspectives. The imagery and language you used in here was so beautiful.

No problem. Every writer needs an ego boost.
