Innocent seeming, darkness of being
A poem inspired by...something. I think that it can apply to either Ryou/Bakura or Yugi/Yami depending on how you look at it and how you want to view the characters. Which do you think? I would appreciate any and all feedback so please review if you read this. It's all that I ask, really.
Innocent seeming, darkness of being
Innocent eyes look out on the world
And innocence they do see
But innocent eyes
Are just a disguise
And not reality
Darkness lurks beneath the guise
Of one who looks young,
Innocent seeming
Hides darkness of being
From which you now must run.
Darkness that one must hide from the world
For as evil it would be seen
Innocence perceived
And lies they believed
Who knows what might have been?
If darkness could walk free in the light
And could, as innocence, be known
No more confusion
No more delusion
Then the world we would own.
But Darkness is feared and cannot be known
By most peoples of this race
So we'll keep our guise
Of our innocent eyes
Until we find our time, our place.
