Defiled

He named her Anzu
Because for her he cared
Someone named him Kyo
And the two fell in love

According to a story he wrote
Long before she became a gleam in his eye
It shocked me to read
The name he was giving her

And hurt maybe more than I showed
On that night so long, but not, ago
She was with me at my home
Seeking refuge

From a nightmare
That threatened her keep
And it hurt me to know
That I was hating her

For something so small
She didn’t have a choice
It was a name she deserved
It was perfect for her

Like he knew years ago
That one day there’d be a girl
Who’d suit that name
And needed it at the same time

I listened to them talk on the phone
A silent observer in my own home
I wanted to cry but I couldn’t
She needed me more than ever before

That night I held her
As she fell asleep in my arms
I remember thinking
That I’d never let harm come to her

She’s mine to protect
Mine and mine alone
But who will protect me
If he cared so much for her

I saw the words
In between the written and spoken
He would protect her too
Never hurt her unless he couldn’t help it

What a triangle we make up
You’d get him in a heartbeat Anzu
And I would have to give him up
I’d cross flames and death for the both of you

God how I hate
This torn trust
Love a person
But they won’t love you

He never loved me
But had no qualms using me
He never had a second thought to hurting me
I didn’t matter

So every night I make a wish
Upon the star and moon
That one day soon
I’ll die a death deserving of a broken soul

For without true love
I’m dying a thousand deaths
Every time I see him
I break inside

See the shards of glass
Take the paint
And turn them into a masterpiece
Deserving of forevers display

Can you do it
Kyo?
Can you do it
Anzu?

I issue this challenge as my last regard
Good bye dear sister
Good bye my dream lover
I have nothing left to live for.
