A/N: So, yeah...the lack of attention for my other poem worries me.*sweatdrops* Anyhow, this is a poem Deidara wrote after Sasori died, talking about art(sorta). It's (very VERY) mildly yaoi, in a sort of a angsty fluff kind of way...the only way I seem to be able to write poetry. I'm pretty proud of this though. It almost made my friend cry when she read it. I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: First, you tell me I have to follow the laws of physics and the law enforcement, and now THIS? *pouts* Fine, I don't own Naruto. Heaven help us all (or more specifically, Chicken-teme) if I did.
Artistic Death
Sasori-no-danna,
When Zetsu had told me
you died in battle, it was
all I could do
not to go back
to the cave where
I had left you fighting
to see for myself.
I was told Tobi is
going to be my new
partner. I don't understand
Why
the hell that idiot's in the
Akatsuki in the first place.
He knows nothing about
the true meaning of art.
Then again, neither
Did
you, danna.
You always said
"Art is eternal, brat."
But art is fleeting,
a brilliant flash of beauty
that will make
You
crave more.
I've heard that
you knew
the last blow was
coming.
That will always
Leave
the question of
why hanging
in the air.
Why didn't you try
to stop her attack
Danna? Why didn't
you stop your own
death
in it's tracks?
It seems to
Me
that your final
act went against
your own view of
art.
You worked so hard
to make yourself
immortal, eternal;
yet you willingly
accept your own
death, you own
end of eternity.
And your greatest
masterpiece,
yourself,
is nothing but
an empty shell now.
I suppose that
in the end
you were art.
You might hate
me for saying that,
but it's true.
No matter how
our views differ,
we can agree
that art is
something that you never, ever
want to forget.
Out of all the Akatsuki, you
Alone
understood this.
So I guess you were
art to me after all.
Ne, Sasori-no-danna?
Tenshi: Well, there you have it. Reviews, constructive critscism, and (aknowledging my existance on this site... ;-.V) are welcome. Sorry if I seem dull, lack of chakra is not helping me.
