Let it Come

I can't stop it.

It's a power stronger than magic,

Deeper than soul.

It tears apart the body,

The mind.

Leaves an empty carcass

For the sewer rats to consume.

The young boy…

Too young.

Daroga's young son,

Blind,

Crippled.

I killed him,

To avoid this slow tearing

That now consumes my being.

It will rip apart everything.

Everything I held dear.

It hardly matters now.

Let it come.

Everything's already done and gone…

Let it come.
