Eyes

Your eyes have the most amazing shade, do you know?

They are like almonds, with iris as dark as the earth. Your eyelashes are long and black, so black that it is a wonder that your hair is a lighter shade. Encompassing your eyes are skin that is so light that I would sometimes find myself staring at your sleeping form in the middle of the night, wondering if a skin so white and pure really does exist, or is it only the trick of the moonlight?

Your nose is small but beautiful, your lips not pink, not even red, but something in between. Your mouth forms every word gently, your voice speaking only tenderness and always quiet.

Are you me?

I find it hard to believe. I see it now. I know it now. I know why he likes you. Kazuki. It took me a long time to understand, but I do now.

But, even now, it's so hard to accept.

Your eyes never lie, do you know?

When you try to feign words, you blush and your eyes tell otherwise. And everyone would see and realize that you are so pure. So, so pure. You may fight, you may try to hide it with all those make-up and other cosmetics�but your eyes always stay the same. It is your window, your soul.

Would you believe I sometimes believe I don't have a soul? And that is alright, because I know that you have one. I don't believe you are me, but I know. I am content, knowing that someone who is me has a soul.

What would you say if I said I hate your mother?

Would you agree? Would you hate me?

After all, considering, she's also mine. Not here. Not in this world. But she's mine. And I hate her.

I want to hate you, too.

But I can't now, can I? Because you're so good and you never lie and your eyes are always the same--

--because you're not me. And I know I can only hate myself.

You're going to be happy with Kazuki, Mitsuki-san. Maybe I'll also be happy then. I know Kazuki is going to be happy with you. And maybe it's some sort of vanity, but through you, I can have a part of Kazuki as well.

Your eyes embraces everything.

Even me.

And because of this, I love you.

Do you know this?
