DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Death Note. Characters, etc, belong to their creators. Yeah.. So this first poem is about Light Yagami. If you'd like to request a poem for a character that I haven't written about yet, just let me know. Enjoy.
Live in shadow, sleep in day
Fight to keep your guilt away
How can you live with the things you've done?
Who thought you'd be the lonely one?
Your life was once so bright and new
A good future ahead, we all thought it was true
But something went so wrong inside
Something went and twisted your mind
You abandoned your old life, left it behind
Went to the dark, well, what did you find?
Tell me, was it worth it, all those choices you made?
Tell me, what's it like to watch your life fade?
Strong without but so broken within
Your spirit's bleeding while you grin
How does it feel to live like you do?
I never expected this from you.
Tell me, how do you sleep at night?
To keep nightmares away is a terrible fight.
Did you ever imagine this kind of life?
Don't you ever wish to be free from strife?
It's far too late now to turn back
Strength is something which, lately, you lack
Strong without but so torn up within
Your spirit's bleeding while you grin
Sit on your throne, watch it all turn to grey
Sit back and relax and watch the world fall away.
