Shadow of a Fool
All these years I've been trapped in this accursed body…
And how much I've been wandering across these barren, humdrum lands…
I have been waiting.
Oh, how I have ever been waiting.
For the one day, when my wings will finally unfurl,
And I shall ascend above these monotonous clouds of gray.
That's when, my ambition shall be realized.
To rule over this Earth, as its true God.
To be revered and feared, to be admired and obeyed, that's what will happen.
Wealth, power, sex, conquest, godhood,
…all of those shall be mine at last, when I grasp my throne.
….
…But,
….You didn't go for that, you fool…
Once you defeated Izanami, the sickening bitch that was but my former wife,
You all but rejected your chance at that magnificent chair of royalty.
You fool…
You fool…
All you did was live the same dull, drudging life you had before, you fool…!
Even when your mortal body had grown older, you simply returned to that vapid dust ball of a town,
Only to marry that transient, worthless woman, and sign your life away to that broken down inn like she did!
You fool!
You fool!
You fucking fool!
…..
….
…Heheh,
haha, hahaha…!
Ahahahahahaha!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
And now, you finally see the consequences of not taking that path…
You expected her to bear a perfect child peacefully,
One child that would become your most perfect, and beloved,
…Only to discover your spawn had infected her much more beastly than just that.
To where you saw her to be sliced, and bleed,
…And your young ones infantile body to weaken as well, because of it.
And during all of that, you were but a helpless savior,
Just like when she sacrificed herself, to keep you away from the depths of Hell.
Hahaha, so, do you see now?
How much of a weakling you let yourself become?
Hahahaha..! What a fool you are!
What a fool!
What a Fool!
That's all you've become now! A Fool!
A Fool!
A FOOL!
…
…..I should know.
After all,
….I am you.

Uhh, yeah… XD *sweatdrop* After seeing some good ol' Sander Cohen from Bioshock (ESPECIALLY his 'The Wild Bunny' recording. *shudders*), I was in a very poetic mood. And, uh, this is what came out. XD
And also, I'm sure you're able to figure out who this is about, but in case you didn't, I'm afraid I can't tell, 'cause that would ruin the surprise. ;P (Although, considering the mild pairing…I probably already did. o_o" *brick'd*) XD But that last quote should look familiar. ;3 (Also, this whole poem might sound familiar to a certain someone's story and the backstory with these two. XD)
