Itachi

This is the place where he must die

Die to show love

Die for a brother

Die for a beloved

Even though he knew this he did not shed tears

He did not cry

His love was too strong to feel sadness

Sasuke

He wanted the clan to be avenged

On this day that wish would come true

The wish that bore for all those years

For he did not know

Of the love

Of the love his brother felt

The love so strong

The love so giving

Giving without being given anything in return

Given so freely

Given without anger, sadness, or hate

Itachi

What an actor

An amazing acting job

That got his brother to believe such lies

Lies that had no bit of truth whatsoever

He did it all

He lived a life of Hatred

Hatred from all that knew him

A life of emptiness

No family but his younger brother

One he could not kill

Kill all those years ago

Sasuke

Vengeance

All that he ever wanted

Was not what he truly needed

The strike that seemed fatal

Did harm but not death

For Itachi stood up

With a cough of blood

Pleading for air

Pleading for breath

Approaching was his enemy

His lifelong nightmare

The nightmare that would not go away

But today it would not stay

Itachi

Life is fleeting

Life is going from you

Your life is almost over

Yet you're left with this silly smile

No tears are shed

But if they were

They would be

Tears of joy

Tears of joy for a brother

Just one last time

You want to show love

Only to receive hate

That poke

Poke of joy

Joy for him

Who will still live

Sasuke

What was that?

That could not have just happened

That smile

It must have been

A sick twisted one

Is he dead?

Or was that a replacement

This makes no sense

Why would he apologize?

After all those years

All those years filled with lies

The rain starts

Perfect for the mood

That I'm left with

Sorrowful rain

Rain that washes it all away

All but that smile on his face

All the blood

All the sins

All the people he killed

Were forgiven

But with ever rain that has ever poured

A rainbow comes for those who have endured

Endured the hate of this world

Somewhere far beyond this world

Itachi is still smiling

Looking down with love

That love that he had all his life

But could not be seen
