Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach. If I did, it would have been very different and be given the ending it deserved.

We saw it coming,
We knew it would,
That this tale would end,
But not as it should.

Questions left unanswered,
Souls left unknown.
Inconsistencies abundant,
Something we can't condone.

But we're so focused on the bad,
(That's all I ever hear)
That we completely ignore
Just what brought us here.

Remember the journey they led,
Hard and confusing it may have been.
Remember the heroes we followed,
Through every tear and grin.

Remember the villains so strong,
With plans so convoluted.
And remember the lessons we learned,
That since within us been rooted.

Remember the joy of the beginning,
Not the ending undeserved...
... But who says it's an ending
That needs to be preserved?

If one can live five lifetimes,
Each with something changed,
Then the characters too
Can have their stories rearranged.

Find the missing comrades,
Fill the holes in the scripts!
Write about your pairing,
And take canon from those ships!

We are writers and artists,
Telling tales is what we do!
Take the lackluster end
And bleach it all anew!

Kubo left so much story to tell,
A chance for something greater.
So rather than say goodbye,
Tell Ichigo and co...
