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
