This one was inspired by Shou and Kasumi; so, just imagine Shou writing this for the latter.

A little context: Shou is a shy, soft-spoken male while Kasumi is a stony, badass.

___________________________________________________

Let's be honest for once,
Can you really love a guy like me?
You have many handsome suitors,
And yet, you didn't choose them over me.

Wait hold up, please hear me out, but first;
Can I ask a question I've been meaning to inquire?

Why did you choose shy little me?
I doubt I meet the standards, a lady like you require.

I am shy and quiet,
I sit quietly and agree politely;
Yet you are strong and fierce,
You're not the type to follow blindly.

We have the same jade-hued eyes,
But yours are far sharper;
We have the same coal-toned hair,
But yours is far cooler.

Don't mistake my confusion for rejection,
For I truly do admire you;
But, I can't just fathom.

Why a girl like you;
Would feel the same way I do.

But I thank the heavens,
For this blessing still;
Because afterall.

The love story of a war-maiden,
And her shy little prince;
Is a tale ever so tall.
