'lo! This is my 2nd poem by popular demand (okay, not really, but I can
fantasize, can't I?). Anyways, it's about Kurama. Or rather, it's about
Kurama's memories of when Youko escaped death. Oh yeah, I don't own Yu Yu
Hakusho or Kurama *sighs*, but at least the poem's mine! So, here goes!
Moonlight shines down on the lone figure
His pale hair the color of moonbeams
Stars flickering into life in the sky
Life flickering away from the creature far below
Always before, life was a game
Nothing to lose, the whole world to gain
But now I know that it's all on the line
I took the bait, and now they've caught me.
Soft hands pull him into darkness
Death gazes up fondly, pulling him down
Falling into an ocean of oblivion
Screaming in agony, yet the silence is unbroken.
Always before, life was a game
Nothing to lose, the whole world to gain
I refuse to surrender, though Death holds me fast
Gentle as a lover, yet fierce as a warrior.
'Nowhere to hide', Death murmurs softly
'Just give in and be released from pain.
'Life is so harsh; death is sweet relief.
'Submit and come into the darkness with me...'
Always before, life was a game
Nothing to lose, the whole world to gain
My journey will not end here, I will conquer Death
And someday I will return, and then they will pay.
A single light in a realm of darkness,
Reaching, straining, trying to grasp it
Wounds reopen; blood dyes my hair
Fingers brush the light; and the pain is gone...
Always before, life was a game
Nothing to lose, the whole world to gain
I hear the scream of rage behind
For I have escaped, and I laugh at Death...
-------------------------------------------------
Memory slips away, emerald eyes flash open
Setting sun colors the hair blood red
Like the blood shed so long ago...
Like HIS blood shed so long ago...
Always before, life was a game
Nothing to lose, the whole world to gain
Now, once again, it's all on the line...
And we know it is no longer a game.
Yeah... it has the same weird 3rd to 1st person shift as Darkness Forever, I know. Dunno why I keep doin' that. Please PLEASE review if you're reading this! I want to know what people think, good or bad. Read my Hiei poem, too. *starts fooling with Kurama's death tree seeds*
Kurama: Stop! That's dangerous! *the death tree sprouts and devours Gryphon Child...* Kurama: ^_^'
*beep* GryphonChild is currently being devoured by the death tree. However, please leave a review, and she will be sure to read it as soon as she can. Thank you. *beep*
