A/N… Just a short bit of poetry. I actually wrote this some time last year, but never did anything with it. I own no characters.
Shadows of a former time
Preserving the present, yours and mine.
High may be our names
Boundless wealth we all may claim.
But for all that,
Our days were boring unbearably,
Till' discovered a form of liberty
Night after night,
Rain or shine,
We protect our city,
And we draw the line.
Through death and life,
Unimaginable strife,
Through victories and near defeats,
We've proven that we can't be beat.
Friends will die, parents lost;
We stick to our code and be our own boss.
This forgotten city will be saved,
In spite of the villains sick and depraved.
We didn't start this fight,
This battle from night to night.
We didn't attempt to illegally mend,
But mark our words, crime will end.
Yes, we wear masks, and
To everyone who asks,
Who we are is not important.
It's this city that matters.
For us to keep it safe from Hatters.
We are mysterious and anonymous,
And some of us practice insolence,
But we've helped this city time and again
To bring it out from madmen's reign.
