soulmate /ˈsəʊlmeɪt/ • noun A person who was made from the same star as you. // Kuroken AU where the last words your soulmate will say to you appear on your skin when you turn 16, and how Kenma and Kuroo learn what this means over the course of their lives

A collection of poems, mainly based on the anime Haikyuu, for my friends Lucas

When you leave the world, your soul is connected to the conscience of the person who misses you the most. You cannot properly lay your soul to rest until they learn to let you go. Memories, experiences, sentiments. They are important to letting go of a soul. But they are also exactly what tethers them to this world. No matter what he tries, Kenma cannot let go of Kuroo.
