Daily Prayer as I lay

​It will hurt but only for awhile. 

Keep the pain inside and try your best to smile.

The world won’t believe you.

People will always leave.

Lilac cravings bring you comfort,

Hidden within your skin.

I never meant to hurt you

By making you believe that all is well.

Never meant to hide from, 

This truth I could not tell.

The world around us is painful

People never seem to stay.

I only hope you give me time 

To correct every lie till today.

Lilac cravings bring you comfort

Hidden within your skin

Reminding you that all things 

Must come to a grave end.
I never meant to touch you

To show you what true love was

Never meant to hold you in my arms,

Have you experience such warmth

Never my intention to bring you all this pain.

To show you that the world is cruel

And people rarely stay.

Close your eyes and remember me. 

Remember the love we shared

Remember the times we laughed.

That I showed you what it felt like to care

Color me inside your soul.

Leave me there to fester deep.

Like a wound on your heart

You will always keep.

Lilac scars may cover you

Hidden from the world

But please remember the times we shared

Yes this world may be full of suffering

And people lie with glee

Yes in the end I hurt you most

Because I also had to leave

But please don’t forget us

Don’t forget our love

I never truly left you dear

I am always in your heart.

  1. Thank you for your candid review of “A Twist in the Myth” on AFF. I can certainly understand your view that Chapter 1 is a somewhat boring one; I hope you find the following chapters more interesting.

    Truthfully, I didn’t rely only on my memory when writing it. I had several volumes of the manga to use as reference and I also consulted the InuYasha fan wiki. Of course, being an eventual crossover with Marvel’s Avengers, “ATitM” will deviate significantly from the canon story, but I wanted it to be firmly grounded in the source material anyway.

    • I look forward into reading what you have ^-^.
      All the best stories have a slow start which is why I continue with it.

      I am sorry if it came out a little harsh though. Sometimes it is hard to write a review and keep my tone neutral. It is something I am working on.

    Truthfully, I didn’t rely on just my memory as I wrote. I had several printed volumes of the manga to use as reference and I also consulted the InuYasha fan wiki. Of course, “ATitM” will deviate significantly from the canon, but I wanted to make sure it was firmly grounded in the source material. Thanks for reading!
