I do not own Persona 4 or any of it's characters; they are a property of Atlus.

I've never felt this pressed before.

It feels like I have to pick my heart up from off the floor.

I used to think such trivial things as love weren't true.

Then the winds shifted and brought me closer to you.

"Detective Prince"? What a farce.

I just made up that title to make the world seem less harsh.

Trying so hard to have people view me with a serious eye.

I guess that's why I chose to act like a guy.

The case in Inaba at first seemed like another accolade to place upon the shelf.

Although it ultimately became the place where I had to face myself.

Meeting you and the others, it changed my life.

You all pulled me out of my realm of strife.

I am a woman, I finally feel free.

Taking solace in the fact that you will all be there for me.

My mystery was solved, but there was still one thing I couldn't push through.

The mental block in my mind that revealed itself to be Yu.

You must think me foolish to be writing these things on a page.

It's just that I want you to know that you have my heart locked in cage.

Senpai, I feel so strongly for you that it's hard for me to breathe.

So, I want you to know my true feelings if you so please.

You are an enigma that I rack my mind to solve.

The way you smile, the way you carry yourself, your resolve.

I know I may not be as bold as Rise.

As strong as Chie.

Or as graceful as Yukiko.

But there are a whole world of things I feel I have left to show.

I know I may be rambling on, so I'll end this with three words that my heart knows are true.

I love you.

This is the first poem I've written in a couple years, so I'm sure I'm a bit rusty lol. R&R let me know what you think. :)
