AN: Deidara's finale, sort of. It's from his POV, and later he's telling someone else what it's like or something... My brain hurts! I swear I didn't force out any of these rhymes. They all correspond in one way or another. I whipped this up in bits at the most random times ever, so... Love it. Hate it. Digest it. Berate it. And please review. I appreciate it, really!

Embrace of the Inevitable

It was like a passive tone

Until I opened my eyes and finally saw

How this life of mine in all its thrills was really nothing at all

Who had been touched?

Who had felt the caress of brilliance brush their skin?

Burn through it?

Macabre scenes dance through my mind

Beautiful beyond compare to the insightful eye

Be open or you'll never close

Have detail or fall into repose

I'm tired of conforming to your mood

Sick of your standards

Understood?

Let go of the little things and feel the glory

Erstwhile days… I've left the sanctimony

Inspiration was my deprivation

From all familiarity

Like a gift from above

Shunned beyond giving love

And when you feel like all hope has left you

Your bones ache with the weight of years

And time has borne the brunt of your fears

Left not was I for the stagnation

Nothing here, no contemplation

Shying from complacency

Stay uneasy

The less important I make it, the less it can hurt me

The more I know, the more you desert me

When that wellspring of life has run dry

And it really is your moment to die

Will you rot within a worldly tomb?

Fester in a mausoleum?

Does that loom?

Are you afraid?

Or

Will you taste the black light that seeps through your soul?

Step into the heat that swallows you whole

The warmth then the cold

As every fibre of your being broken down

Becomes, oh, so serene

One with the beauty

One with the light

And when it's all over

One with the night

BANG

Stream through the blood of the earth

Float with the currents of the sky

Don't you know?

You've died

Regret all you've lost but wanted to keep

Forget about your past, 'cause you're in too deep

Here we go down into the omnipresent abyss

Let go

Hold that which is intangible

You grasp fate itself

Don't keep it manageable

You've killed yourself
