Broken Black Pearl

by Sora Chi Kaminari   Jan 17, 2006


He ran a hand through his hair
He waited for her; a dare
He waited after school, for this girl
Though shamed by others, she was his black pearl
A Gothic chick, pushed around
Though by night, the hottest girl in town
A mysterious little girl, changing her ways
A different girl, night to day
There she was, covered in black
He thought he may have a heart attack
He rolled his eyes & walked her home
The cuts on her arms made him want to explode
As he walked with this Broken Pearl
He grabbed the hand of this odd girl
She gasped in surprise a look of confusion
He pulled her closer, his strange decision
She handed him a broken smile
His heart leaped over a mile
The most popular boy at school
Thought himself as a fool
This was only a dare, not a date
He shook his head, this must be fate
He questioned the cuts on her arms
She lied hiding her emotional harm
He stopped, pulling her into his arms
Chin on her head, letting out sweet charms
Taking in her scent
Smelling much like a mint
He held her close, kissing her soft sweet lips
She gasped in surprise & pulled away quick
A look of hurt covered his face
Her mind froze, her heart raced
He let her go & continued to walk
There was only silence, no talk
Anger hit him in the chest
Was she seeing someone else, was he not the best?
He growled silently, he looked at her out of the corner of his eye
She was blushing, he let out a sigh
A girl of his obsession, pushed him away
What else could go wrong on this horrible day?
A gun shot echoed through the street
He jumped slightly at the body by his feet
It was his obsession, his black pearl
He knelled by her body & held her close
Fear & almost death clouded her eyes
His hand over the wound, he started to cry
She whispered three words, impossible to hear
He turned his head & saw the drunk with a beer
He held the gun, a wobbly walk
His stuttered words, he began to talk
The boy turned away from the drunken man
He kissed her soft lips & held her hand
She whispered those words again
He gave her a broken smile, as he began
'Ai shiteru' he whispered to his girl
She fell limp, his pearl was no more, but a Broken Black Pearl

Ai shiteru- I love you
