Reflection

A/N: Well, What can I say? This song is just perfect for Kou-chan. And, to all you Koushiro-haters, who think this song would be more appopriate for Yamato or Mimi: Nyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaa. Oh, and I didn't say who he was dreaming about, but it's obvious who it isn't. Oh, and I might a sequal to this, but only if I feel like it. And, I'm not sure who to put him with, so suggestions are more than welcome.


Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

His 'friends'.

They *thought* they knew him.

The key word there: Thought.

In reality, they didn't know a thing about him.

They just thought that he was some geek who only cared about his computer.

Some genius.

Some heartless, uncaring, genius.

He knew that they all thought that the only thing that he was good for was solving prolbems.

All of them.

Even that one person who's understanding and love for him would mean more than anything in the universe...



Who is that person I see
Staring straight back at me
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

Mirrors.

He hated them.

Why?

They didn't lie.

The thing about Koushiro Izumi was that he could lie.

He did that often.

He wore a mask of lies, not once taking it off to take a break.

He couldn't.

No one would understand.

They could say that it was alright, everything would be ok, that they understand, but it was all lies.

Lies, lies, lies.

Lying was the only thing he could do right...

The only god damn thing.



I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

That was a dream of his.

That one day, he would take off his mask of lies...

And people would see him for what he truely was...

And they would love him for it...

And that person...

That one, special person...

Would love him more than anyone ever would.

But...

They were just dreams.

Childish, foolish dreams...

Who is that person I see
Staring straight back at me
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

He never knew himself.

He never knew who he truely was.

Sometimes, it could be the biggest relief in the world, not knowing who you truely are. Don't ask why...he couldn't have given you a answer that you would have understood.

That any of them would have understood...

Then, it could be the biggest pain in the world.

Not knowing who you really are...

One day, he would reveal his trueself to himself...and everyone else..

Would they care?

Would they love him for it?

He didn't know.

Would they hate him for it?

Probably.

There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why

He wanted to know why.

Why did he have to hid?

Wouldn't just be eaiser to just show his true self?

It would make him happier...

But no.

It just wasn't possible.

Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

When will my reflection show
Who I am inside

Could he?

Could he, one day, tell that person how he felt?

Show everyone who he really was?

Just because he said he would doesn't mean that he will...

Would he?

He wanted to.

But, you don't always get what you want...

When would he truely be who he was?

What is a long way from here?

Or was it a day away?

Did it matter?

Did he care?

Did anyone else?

Whatever....

Yeah...whatever...
