I don't own One Piece or it's characters; that's the good fortune of Eiichiro Oda.  But the way the words go together - that's all mine.

This free verse was inspired by the song "Geh Davon Aus (Assume That) " by Sohne Mannheims.  It's written as Sanji's POV. The second version is written to be spoken aloud.  That one - well, that one is everyone's version.

==============

In Deed Alone

Assume that

When I open my eyes, I see only you.

You'll never drive me away.

Harm will not touch you while I'm here.

Assume that

My heart breaks.

I cannot breathe.

Hope is my resurrection.

Assume that

I love you.
