DISCLAIMER: Nope, Kenshin's not mine. *sigh*

Hitokiri
by Meressefers
-------------------------------------------
He is the lone hawk at the mountain's peak,
This little boy who takes the lives of men;
Forsaken, alone but for his sword,
Kenshin swoops into the monster's den.
"The first principle of Hiten Mitsurugi..."
With nothing to gain and nothing to lose,
His sacrifices twist his mind;
His life is murder for the people
So that justice they may find.
"...The sword swung in my name shall be swung for the people of the
world..."
Atonement is merely a man-slayer's dream
In a world where love shudders and brings itself death:
His last light faded on a winter's night,
Crimson blood against snow and last breath.
"...To prevent the shedding of innocent blood..."
Hitokiri, he wields his sword...
He'll never be the same again.
"...To prevent the shedding of innocent blood..."
"...Innocent blood..."
