A/N: So I've started learning about poems about school and I thought 'Hey, I can totally write stuff like that and put in awesome, complicated rhymes too!' I can't... but here's my attempt anyway :) This is actually the longest poem I've ever written, which is kinda sad at my age but you know I've remember thinking about this ever since the scarlet eyes were first introduced, it was just constantly in the back of my mind so yeah, time to vent using a poem :P
Scarlet eyes
I don't understand.
Why were these eyes created?
What purpose do they hold?
To enter the world and be desecrated?
These things implanted in my head.
Predetermined by birth,
passed down from generation to generation.
But what were they worth?
Actually no,
let me retract that question,
and instead answer me this:
How did they become such an obsession?
I understand they are the proof of our existence,
this genetic mutation only we possess.
Some may say, the pride of our clan.
But to others, what could they possibly express?
These orbs that start off grey,
but once fuelled with anger
transform into a dark, glowing red.
Tell me why do they attract so much danger?
The pain and the suffering,
the death and the sorrow,
the blood and the tears shed on that day.
Give us back our tomorrow!
I'm aware the spiders came and stole it.
But you know, that would've never happened
if these things had just never existed.
I wouldn't have been abandoned.
I wish I could turn back time,
go up to the fool who gave us this curse
and punch him straight across the face.
It's not like matters could get any worse.
I have already lost everything,
buried all that I hold dear.
Forever tormented by the past,
I watch and I see my future disappear.
For what reasons do these eyes exist,
I honestly don't understand.
A/N: I hope you liked my poem. Feel free to like and review, it would make me really happy ^^
