I have never done a fan-poetry before! It’s a first, and dedicated to my favorite favorite character, Axel. Yesh, it’s Akuroku too. Written from Roxas’s POV, though it’s a bit of Sora’s POV as well. Soraku? o.O No way!

Yes, this poetry style is quite… hmm… different from my usual. It doesn’t rhyme, it doesn’t have a particular order or anything… each stanza has it’s own ‘scene’, that’s all. I’m experimenting, and I kinda like this one. Yeah.

I see a dream.
Is it mine?
Or the other,
Deep inside of me.

Teardrops on your face,
Loud words and smile,
Is that a mask?
It has to be.

Flames, top and around,
Repeated reminders.
Fear to be forgotten,
Scared to be ignored.

Even before fallen,
Crumbling and consumed,
A resounding bang,
And beautiful fireworks.

And then, gone.
Left a lingering promise.

We will meet again,
Got it memorized,

Axel?
