Just a little something I came up with in Creative Writing class because I was bored. Tell me what you think!!
Vash's Lament
A wanderer's life is very hard
Especially when you are me
Every town, woman, man, child
Hates my lonely existence
I walk in, they hide
Cover their eyes, despise
Do I deserve their hate?
What have I done?
I walk amidst the dusty rocks
I listen to the raven's call
I hear life's steady heartbeat
I feel the cooling rain
I touch the fragile flower
I greet my friend the sun
I see the jewel-like stars
I taste the sweet air
What have I done?
Do I deserve their hate?
They despise my gentle heart
And scorn my compassionate tears
I want to help them, save them
But they wish for my demise
Ah! I would gladly die!
If only to ease their pain
Yet I must not die until I kill Him
He walks among the ruins of cities
He listens to survivors' laments
He hears the eerie silence after a storm
He feels the chilling wind
He touches dead steel
He greets the Grim Reaper collecting his souls
He sees rivulets of blood
He tastes terror
A villain's life is very easy
Especially when you are Him
Every town woman, man, child
Hates to admit his existence
He walks in, they go on
He's unnoticed by their eyes
He deserves their hate
Because of what He's done
To save them from Him
I will gladly face
Hate
