This is a poem inspired by Levi's apology to Eren in Chapter 66 (which hasn't yet been offically translated at this time so if offical translations say something different...its too late :P). This piece is written from Levi's POV to Eren, focusing on the theme of 'choices'. This is my first piece for SNK so hopefully you will enjoy it. Thank you for reading! (p.s I don't know how to space out the stanzas so this poem will have to be read like a block, though each stanza should be four lines long.)
Every time
Given a choice, even a thousand times over,
You may never be satisfied with the answer.
Where you stand can stand no other,
Because your strength comes from more than your power.
In this cruel world there is no time to falter,
To lament the souls that have been left to wander.
Do not forget. You are a soldier.
The lives of many are on your shoulders.
Even though your tears may blind you,
Numb the pain of that deja-vu…
Let it flow like titan smoke,
For Eren; you are our only hope.
This man before you carries the depth of humanity's crime,
I'm sorry that it has to be you every time…
Eren…
Just choose what you like.
