And So I Knew by Orenji Yume

A Rock one-shot poem

SPOILERS - Rock's thoughts as he goes to his father's rescue. Sorry if anyone seems OOC. Enjoy! Merry Christmas to everyone and a Happy New Year!

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Metropolis.

I dare you
To go a step closer to him
Come after me first
They froze
I stared at them, my face was grim
The pain in me about to burst

I saw my father's face
Eyes wide with fear
I had to save him
This was no state for him to die in
Even if it had to be this place
His breathing I could hear
I had to save him

I dare you
To touch even a single hair of him
If so, then you're dead
They came
And so the lights did dim
I felt faint in the head

The last I saw of my father
Was that he looked worried for me
And so I knew he loved me
I hold that face forever in my head
That face of my dear father
From there I knew the truth meant to be
And so I knew he loved me
