Second part of the Itachi & Sasuke Series. A poem representing the pain Sasuke felt the night when the massacre happened, and what he felt after learning about Itachi's truth, from his POV.
That Fateful Night
That fateful night,
One that I would always remember
The only one,
That never fades with time
.
Corpses strewn all over the ground,
Blood splatters all around
Shuriken and kunai peppered the walls,
Walls that were now blood red.
Running and running,
Hoping against hope
That our parents were spared,
From this ruthless slaughter.
Entering the dojo with fear,
Seeing the bodies and blood,
And you, nii-san, standing over their corpses
Eyes cold and uncaring.
Mangekyou activated,
Showing me the process
Instilling fear and hatred into me,
Making me stronger than ever.
That fateful night,
Something in me died,
My love for you died,
Hatred as replacement.
But now I know,
The reason behind your actions,
That you had protected me,
From the clutches of Death.
Never will I hate you anymore,
Neither will I forgive you,
For leaving me alone,
That fateful night.
That fateful night,
My last memories of you,
I remembered them now,
Remembered that you shed tears.
Tears of pain and sadness,
For everything,
For my broken soul,
That fateful night
So... How was it? Its my first attempt at poetry, much less something angsty... Please read and review! :D
