You

You were the person

I least expected

To even care

You were the one

I expected to run away

From me, from my darkness

You were the one

I figured would freak out

That you’d lose the little respect

That you had for me

But you

You were the person

Who cared the most

You were the one

Who didn’t run away

Instead you ran in,

You ran into my darkness

 Brandishing a light that would not die

You were the one

Who didn’t freak out

You said that you

Had gained respect for me

You were the one

Who said they honestly

Wanted to help

You were the one

Teaching me

How to unlock my heart

You were the friend

The simple friend

That I needed the most

It was you

Another beautiful, though sad Poem, Kaori. I wonder why you are surprised that some-one would be drawn to such a sensitive and facinating person.

Well, I may be sensitive on the inside but to the outside world I come off as aloof and arrogant.
~Kaori

YOU are neither aloof nor arrogant. U r a sweetheart and believe in URSELF....and i am sure you won't be surprised to see why people are attracted to u just as SUSAN said....

AWWW THanks so much!! I do believe in myself, only the person I believe in is merely a facade for the rest of the world too see. . So when This person broke through that, I was very shocked and touched. . Thank you

I care, it's just sometimes I feel like you shouldn't love me because I'm a bad person.
