Where were you then?
As I lay broken on the street.
Where were you? When L found me. When I lay broken on a cot.
Where were you then? As I was made painfully perfect, With serums, and poison.
Where were you then? When I made my first kill, With such speed as a bullet.
Where were you then? When I first bonded, And became one, With Hawk.
Where were you? When my life came, To a screeching halt.
As my spirit, Drifted to god knows where.
This promise that you made, Came undone as we, Drifted apart. Thrown from this world, To the next.
You never did Fulfill it,
You where not The ones That kept me going.
Not the ones That mended my wounds.
Not the ones That sat by my side, As I battled, The serums and poisons.
Not the ones That comforted me, On my first kill. As I tried to rid myself.
Not the ones That helped me Learn how to bond with Hawk.
Not the ones That held on to me, As my life came To a screeching halt.
Not the ones That begged my spirit To stay from death's grip.
You promised As you held me All those nights ago, That you would wait and, Be there by my side. To hold me as I cry,
But as our worlds shifted, Throwing me into A world full Of hate, and pain.
And now after 20 years, I have grown, Learning to live.
And for the first time, Be able to sleep Without the nightmares.
The nightmares Of the war, The screaming, Of those who pleaded, And cried of mercy, As I felt their blood Cool on my skin.
No it was not you, It was the ones I fought with.
They understood, As I woke screaming In the midst of the night.
They held me Through the pain and suffering.
Yes, they did, not you.
