A girl sits at the back of the class
who doesnt want to be included with the mass
a shy, fragile girl
who i never knew would become my world

Her haven is in a sea of words
sitting on a beanbag, not wanting to be disturbed
A mysterious girl who keeps to herself
helped me put more books on my shelf

learning from her, such pain and sorrow
makes me think about tomorrow
all i want is to make her pleased
and make her forget the times she was teased

The scars on her body will never heal
i hope to know how she feels
i hope shes comforted that im here
so lets play chess dont shed a tear

the purple hair, straight and long
she always feels like she did something wrong
her nervous speech in a chopped sentance
but this girl is still looking for repentance

its not her fault for that horrible fire
i'll keep her safe and lift her higher
shes best girl dont doubt that
the others are good but they all fall flat

everything about her is super cute
while my traits are rather minute
this girls name is Hanako Ikezawa
and this poem will be her flower

Look up in the clouds, way up in the sky!
It's lots of unused endings fluttering by.

You took Rin for seafood, she choked on a prawn.
Remember that ending? - no wait, now it's gone.

Shizune was so mad that she physically exploded
And burned down the school - now that has eroded.

The H-scene with Mutou! The part with the ass!
"Wrong hole!" he cried out - and now that one has passed.

When Emi was vegan but felt very sickly
And barfed during playtime - boy, THAT went by quickly!

That time with the terrible forum OC
"Which one?" you cry out - but it's gone, let it be.

You know that end scene with the campfire and ember
And Hanako stuck it - I hope you remember!

The one in which Kenji was giving you head
Will stay incomplete, for that ending is dead.

All incomplete scenes, and if you wonder why,
It's because no one else besides Hisao should die.

We sit and we ponder what may well have been
In the minds of the devs, each fantasy scene.

-Emergence-

I rise from within
Anxiety is crippling
But I will succeed

A haiku from the perspective of Purpleburnt.

I play KS now for weeks on end, and it sadens me every time i finish a story line, seeing it is not real though feels like a real loss to see it end.
Just yesterday i finished Rin's line again .. and it inspired me. I just came home from the grocery and sat in my car in the dark, crying, as so often lately when my mind wanders off to KS and how it makes me feel.
And suddenly it was there (sorry, it doesn't even rhyme or anything, i am not good with stuff like that anyway):

the story ends and my heart breaks
again
i cry
