A/N Wrote this today, because I couldn't sleep. Was trying to work on my story but ended up with this instead? XD? And it's a Sasuke-centric poem. So of course it's angsty. :) I advise the reader to read it slowly, for all poetry must be read slowly in order for one to appreciate it clearly. Maybe even read it out loud? (That's what I do, hehe)
llllllllll
Revenge
for my slain self, a "me" that passed on.
Pools of blood around the bodies call,
"Look at what he's done."
lllllllll
Mask the red that cannot lie.
Avert your gaze, close the eyes.
I have no dreams. I have no smile.
A house so silent, but only once in a while.
llllllll
And the Avenger sees a bond so seeming-
Heaven seeks by a seal with meaning.
Fragile. Tears. Green eyes screaming.
A boy so lost. Emotions intervening.
lllllll
"I am on a path the rest of you cannot follow."
llllll
Thank you. And good bye.
Revenge

Mask the red that cannot lie.
Avert your gaze, close your eyes.
I had no dreams. I had no smile.
A photo fell facedown for a while.

And the Avenger sought by a seal so seeming-
Heaven saw a bond with meaning.
Smirking. Watching. Snake eyes screaming.
A boy with purpose. Emotions intervening.

(i am a different person now
a coldness so convincing
can't stop fidgeting, shaking
my facade crumbling
raw emotion betrays me
i give it all away
naked
nowhere left to hide)

"Itachi... Here I am."

Now die.
