Yondaime's thoughts on the events of October Tenth. He'd rather live and have Naruto than save the village from Kyuubi.
Disclaimer: yeah, I don't own it. Sorry to dissapoint you all!
Enjoyeth!
That Day in Autumn
I stand tall
I stand alone
Before a monster
With not a heart, but stone.
A tiny bundle
Wrapped in my arms
An innocent child
In a world of harms.
He's got Nine tales
Made of blood red
Bringing destruction
'Till all is dead.
To block out the world
I close my eyes.
Above the angry roars
A baby cries.
The tears of the moment
Glimpse of what's to come
Villagers ignoring this child
As a rule of thumb
As my boy grows up
With the villagers lies
Refusing to tell
Of our last sacrifice.
He's big as a mountain
A body like fire
Inflicts upon us his anger
The situation turns dire.
Far off in the distance
A victim's scream
I think of the future
It's not what I dreamed.
I take a step forwards,
Know what I must do
But all I can think of
For one moment is you.
I know it is selfish
Of that I don't care
The thoughts of my actions
More than I can bare.
What do I care
Of my villages fate
Against this creature
Made of nothing but hate.
When to stop his attacks
I must leave you behind
Kyuubi's own anger
In the back of your mind.
I raise my hands
Slam them into the floor.
I know in that moment
That I am no more.
I died a hero
On this winter night.
My body lay broken
Under stars so bright.
But you lived on
My one legacy
I did it all
In necessity.
As I lay dyeing
I had only one wish
To see you grow up
However selfish
I'd leave the village
To Kyuubi's wrath
To see you grow up
To hear you laugh.
I'd abandon the world
Turn all to bedlam
To change the result
Of that day in autumn.
Hope you liked it.
