Disclaimer: If I owned Rurouni Kenshin, then I wouldn't be writing this poem now, would I?

A/N: This is supposedly about Kenshin leaving Otsu to go back to Kyoto a few days after Tomoe dies. Well I guess in the poem it is during the night for no apparent reason, but it doesn't really matter, does it? Anyway, feel free to review! Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome. Ok ok, I'll stop babbling. Enjoy!

Thank you to my fantastically elite friends for your support!

Nameless

:-:

The song of silence

Rings in the black air.

The suffocating stillness

Of the things that were

Still lingers in hesitation.

:-:

He turns to leave

Without another glance,

Without another thought.

There is no more room

For indecision.

:-:

The pain of nothing,

And the loss of everything…

This is what shadows

The dark frozen soul

Of he who once lived.

:-:

For his naïve ideals,

For the promise on his scar,

And for her…

He shall stand strong

And walk on…
