AN:

Yo! These are some poems I've written for the characters of Yu-Gi-Oh!

This first one is about Bakura. Hope you like it.

What Lies Within

Unknown to the living

Unknown to the dead

Alone in this sanctum

A spirit I dread

Unknown to my loved ones

Unknown to the world

This presence inside me

A secret unfurled

Beyond every riddle

Against every law

Understanding is hopeless

To fight power this raw

Unknown to the future

Forgotten in past

This spirit inside me

The heroes outlast

The thief in the night

The prowler of fate

The destroyer of good

And the lasher of rate

Against all that is written

Defiance behold

The hands hold my life force

From a ring made of gold

Lo, tainted dreams

In my heart they writhe

Burning and yearning

This thing deep inside

What lies within

Is no more than dreams

What lies within

Is never what it seems

What lies within

Is there for none to see

What lies within...

Is me...
