A/N: contains some minor spoilers if you are not up to date in the manga.

Atop a giant creature,

A hero falls,

Saving the village

But condemning one soul.

A young child cries,

As he will for many years.

Inside and out his tears fall.

The black closes in around the child,

The child of the hero,

The yellow flash,

The savior,

The child is that of

Yondaime.

The yellow flash,

Now gone forever.

He gave up his life for us.

We all dress in black,

Tears stain our cheeks.

He will not be forgotten.

How the people cry,

Konoha's yellow flash is

Now gone forever.
