Pain

Pain

By Lady Ava

Pain…

An ongoing deadly cycle.

Everyday

Agony runs through my chest.

Knowing that I must fight again.

Ikari thinks of me as his golden child.

The first-born

The first to pilot Eva

And the first to die at Eva's hands.

They won't listen to reason

The angels

But they want to stop us.

We, the humans, are trying.

Trying to play god

Trying to be god

The Pain grows…

They think I'm weird

People.

They don't talk to me

Because I don't speak to them

Asuka and Ikari's son

The other pilots will sometimes speak

But I hardly talk back

The Pain dies…

I saved his life.

Shinji's life is the one I saved.

But at the same time,

I killed my soul.

My life…

My soul…

My mission…

Died with my pain.

The pain that I will never feel again,

Died…
