[Phos. Just Phos.

"'Shinsha actually attacked me'

Ah, those days when you hid from me in your little cave.

Your place of comfort.

Yet, that day, you didn't leave yourself unscathed.


Ah, those days when you used to save me.

It was truly hard to thank you

With Mercury spits from you mouth

And it's danger that hung by your presence


I've always revered you, Shinsha, yet I can't see why you try escape me so much.

And then I remember, the old promise.

Yes.. I would find you a better job..

But now I sit in this corridor full of shards


This hall of regret.

And your head lies by my hand.

I wish I could have given you a place of comfort.

A place of fun.


Where no danger lurks

Where even your poison is normal

You have been on my mind for a 100 years..

The things that I couldn't do for you.


Like a flower that has wilted..

Yet if the petals fall off, the thorns of it's stem remains.

Like a kiss from a demon.

It may either break you or make you.


Shinsha.

My mouth trembles each time I try to say your name

I know you never felt the same 

Even so.. I want to give you.

A latibule"
