Broken

Heartbreak
For Makyo.
Today my heart broke for a friend
for one I care for deeply
one who struggles with bitter curse
one that would end her cheaply.
My heart, thus broken, sang and wept
for deep depression's mire
for manic impulse, shattered mind,
that seeks the garrote wire.
But this I know, and this I seek
the heart behind the pain,
that brilliant shining wondrous light
that crystal without stain.
For in her heart, and in her mind
there lives a greater beauty
than all the world itself yet knows
though her pain keens acutely.
I know not future, know not past,
yet this, at last I know.
This fox with shining purple hair,
she must not ever go.
For in this world there are too few
too few hearts yet so fine
and it would break my heart and yours
if hers no longer shined. >.<
