Journey's End

The days go by,

While I'm away.

While I head onwards,

On my way.

I go through grass,

I look in trees.

But I'm alone,

They hide from me.

No trainer fights,

They know they'll lose.

Wild pokémon,

No fight they choose.

Badges eight,

All on display.

While I try,

To find my way.

I keep on walking,

The hour's late.

Feel I've passed,

A final gate.

And so I head,

Up to the sky.

Up silver mountain,

Will not fly.

Must walk the stone,

The final path.

To make as long,

This journey last.

And here I am,

High at the top.

Journey's over,

Time has stopped.

And so I wait,

In boredom, dread.

Whispering,

"My name is Red."
