Last Time I'll waver

by OrangeKilledTheRaven

A poem-ish thing set in Sasuke's mind, over the course of his and Naruto's last battle. He tries to maintain his usual cool-headed composure, trying to focus on his goal of killing Naruto, but he gradually desires something else. Hinted love...

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto...

Warning: Maybe a few graphic, gory descriptions- but nothing too horrible.

The Last Time I'll Waver

To rip out your throat, rid you of your optimism

Cripple you, and break your limbs

Show me

That I am superior

'Cause I can show you

Your lack of importance

Your weak mind, your everlasting naivety

No longer

I no longer want this thread

The painful, blood-ridden piece of string that chokes

I cut it

Again and again

But you attach it back desperately

This bind, and this love

I cast it away

I will cast it away

I can cast it away

Please let me cast it away

This heart is tangible

In my chest, behind my rib cage

Rip open my skin

Dig into the flesh

Spill my impure blood

And touch it

Because I no longer need it

This blood runs cold

So take it

Just take it

Because the burning sensation is unbearable

Because from your smile drips red

Because my eyes are blurring

Because I forgot I had tears

Because I want to die in your arms
