Let's Smile Again
My soul is caged within this shattered body
Tightly bound by the chains of darkness
I struggle from this ocean of nothingness
For the hope that shone brightly above the surface
But it's too far for me to reach
The light is too dim to guide me.
My lungs suffocated from this loneliness
My eyes are blinded by anger
My ears are deafened by lies
My body is numbed from this burden
My heart is dying from the pain and guilt
What had cause me…
To break like this?
Everything started after he left
For the sake of a vengeance
It started after she cried in front of me
Asking for my help
It started with… what?
Oh… now I remember
Everything started with a promise.
I wish for a bond…
I wish for a family…
I wish for an existence…
I wish for… a life
I thought this promise could give me a chance
But now… I regret to ever made that promise
After achieving his vengeance
He returned back to the village
Along with his new comrades
And announced Konoha's destruction
Everyone fought hard for the village
As always, I held back
Because I promised her…
I will bring him back.
Nothing went as I expected…
I fought long and hard with him…
Then I saw an opening
I aim for it to end this foolish war
And dropped my guard to the ground…
A blow hit me hard from the back
I managed to jumped to the side
And faced my attacker.
There, she stood with a fury glare
I felt like my tongue had been ripped off
Both of them, he and she, laughed.
The wind blew more confusion
Only then I understand…
Realization hit me the hardest that day.
He came back only to destroy
What that destroyed his past
And she will do anything to be by his side
Even to betray the village…
I looked around the bloodied scenery
Disbelieve, shock, and broken…
It clearly showed on everyone's face
Mostly, they are tired of betrayals
Many died because of this.
That's when I lost it
I lost all of my senses and my sanity
The voice rang inside my head…
The demon laughed and said to me;
'I am the only one you could trust…'
And so… I did.
Now here I am as I stand on the ruined mountain
In front of me was once the strongest village of five nations…
Now, only left remains of crumbled buildings, blazes of fire
Thousands of corpse and rotten smell of humans' fleshes
I laughed as I started to remember…
The memories everyone shared together
I laughed as I remember how everyone used to smile happily…
But somehow, my tears fell by themselves…
Never showing the sign to stop.
I laughed as I cried…
I am happy as I am broken…
I am happy that we are all together once more…
I am broken… that we are not smiling again…
Why isn't anyone smiling?
Aren't they happy we're together again?
I ask myself over and over again
We're together now…
Why does everyone crying?
