Description In fields, where nothing grows but weeds,

The Uchiha clan is feeble. (Nothing but 'the clan, the clan…')

They are all so attached to their family name, and they all become arrogant because of their power.

They are a nuisance to the village.

I found a flower at my feet,

Then I met you.

Bending there in my direction.

I'm sure that you were the one who started the conversation. You were the one who asked for my name.

I can still remember your voice calling out to me across the academy classroom.

I wrapped a hand around its stem, and pulled until the roots gave in.

I got curious. You provoked emotions that I have never experienced before I met you.

I wanted to know everything about you, no matter how small.

You were so interesting.

Finding there what I've been missing.

You had what I didn't. We were complete opposites, and that is what I needed.

You gave me a kind of meaning, like I was more than just a prodigy.

I was a friend.

And I know…

I know that it was your downfall.

So I tell myself it's wrong,
there's a point we pass which we can't return;

But I had something I needed to do.

I had two commitments I wanted to keep. One was you. The other was the village.

Do you understand?

I felt the cold rain of the coming storm…

That day… it was like everything knew…

It was silent, even the current made no noise.

And the rain helped me hide the warm tears running down my face.

A few tear droplets fell into the Nakano.

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long,

When I lost you, I lost a part of me. The part that gives a human the will to live.

I stayed up that whole night.

Actually, I can't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep.

When I do I dream,
of drowning in the ocean.

Of drowning in my own blood.

Is this what you felt like?

Was the Nakano red?

Was the water cold?

Did it weigh down your heart?

Longing for the shore,
where I can lay my head down.

I just want out of all of it.

I want to be by your side again.

I'll follow your voice,
all you have to do is
shout it out.

I will try to find you.

(But I doubt I will end up in the same place as you.)

Please, try to lead me.

(Because I'm lost on what to do. I need that part of me back…)

Inside my hands these petals browned,
Dried up and falling to the ground,

Your lifeless body made me sick.

I'm sorry if the suicide note I wrote for you wasn't what you wanted. (I wrote it quick.)

I wanted to run away and forget (but it didn't work).

But it was too late now,

Your pulse was gone; the warmth gone.

Nothing left but memories.

I pushed my fingers through the earth,
returned this flower to the dirt.

I was in denial. But I can't bring the dead back to life.

But I did something else for you.

So it could live I walked away now.

My lips brushed against yours.

I gave you a kiss.

But I know…

It wouldn't bring you back.

Not a day goes by when I don't feel this burn.

After that, everything hurt. Memories obsessed me.

You obsessed me.

There's a point we pass from which we can't return.

I know that there's no changing what happened.

I felt the cold rain of the coming storm…

Now every time it rains, I can't sleep, I can't think, and I can't speak without your name passing through my thoughts.

I want you back.

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long.
When I do I dream,
of drowning in the ocean,
longing for the shore,
where I can lay my head down.
I'll follow your voice,
all you have to do is
shout it out.

All because of you.

I miss you.

All because of you.

Do you miss me?

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long.
When I do I dream,
of drowning in the ocean,
longing for the shore,
where I can lay my head down,
inside these arms of yours.

All because of you,
I believe in angels.

What I lost that day…

Not the kind with wings,
No, not the kind with halos.

It was greater than any other loss.

The kind that bring you home,
When home becomes a strange place.

You caused a wound that will not heal. There's an empty space where my angel should be.

I'll follow your voice,

Shisui…

All you have to do is,

I love you.

Shout it out.

Do you love me?

Why do I want to eat this fic. And I mean that in a good way- I love this. ;3 Which is strange, since I usually don't like much without my ship in it (due to my narrowmindedness, but whatevs). And it's not just the song, though it is one of my favourites.

I classify fics as I classify my food. ;3 In that rating... it would be dessert. It's sweet, but it's also slightly bitter and a little sour; doesn't leave a cloying taste in your mouth once you're done. And I apologize if I sound rather pompous 'n all, I just end up comparing everything to food. XD

Aww, thankyouuu! One of the best reviews of a fic I've gotten

XD Eating fics. But, if you like it that much, and it's a dessert... I have some icing and sprinkles if you want any. I compare everything to playing cards, myself. I understand!

Yer welcome!

Yes, I nom them regularly. You wouldn't have any marzipan, would you? Icing and sprinkles would go great with it, but this feels like it needs some good old almond paste. And great, now I'm actually craving it- time for us to make another midnight trip to the store. DX Playing cards? Interesting. I demand to know more about that grading scale.

Awww, I just ran out of marzipan yesterday...

This "card" grading scale is based on the feel of the whole piece, and then the amazingness of it. Hearts are for generally happy themes, Diamonds are for surreal themes, Clubs are for unusual themes, and Spades are for generally depressing themes. Then the card number is based on the amazingness. XD
