A/N: Three pages of poetic Ryou Bakura angst. I suppose if you want you can read it as really twisted tendershipping, but that was never its actual intent. Like most of my poetry, it was written during a fit of insomnia. Enjoy.
I'm
Shattered
You broke me
Forced me down
The discarded toy
A nameless face
I'm the one you can't see
But the voice you still hear
Whispers
They follow me
Wherever I go
Waiting
Waiting
For a chance
Predator meets pray
Fear meets flight
My wings are clipped
I can't escape
Even if I want to
Morbidity
Has always been my flaw
But now there's blood
It stains my hands
(The ones that you stole)
And I can't help but think
Admit
That maybe
Just maybe
I shouldn't have let you win
Though I'm no fighter
I'm still a sinner
Mother's bane
Father's shame
I guess I wanted someone
To care
To share
That special someone
Turns out you're not the one
Figures
I should have known
You're that stain
That bane
That shame
Oh well
Too late now
Because I'm sunk
I'm
Ruined
Flawed perfection
The oxymoron
Bloody red snow
Like my skin
My sin
(That word again)
It follows me
Broken dreams
Murdered
Slain
You can't feel it
You're incapable
Of love
Of hope
That's what you say
Do I believe you?
Maybe
There's a chance
You've done everything else
Why not this?
Why me?
Was I chosen?
Questions
They sting
Sear my skin
Ash white stares
Burn into my back
They want to know
Why
I'm
Tainted
Poisoned
I won't ever be the same
Even when you're gone
(Will you be gone?)
I'm yours now
Labeled
The stolen one
The precious one
It's not fair
Life's not fair
Chances
Never taken
Beautiful silence
Will you take me?
Save me?
Or am I trapped here?
Always trapped here
No escape
The doors are sealed
Let's settle the score
Finish this now
Before it's too late
(It's never too late)
I want to win
Can I?
Will I?
Help
My silent plea
The darkness cries
Tears of blood
So much blood
And in it
I'm
Soaked
