Well, AkumaKami64 and I decided to do a series of poem banters. I'm counting this as completed because I will never know when this fanfic will be complete done.
Disclaimer: I do not own Beast Boy or Raven. The bold is Beast Boy, the underlined words are Raven. Translation: The bold is me and the underlined words are AkumaKami64.
Shadows What are they exactly?
I think
That they're there to follow you
That they represent all things dark
No, maybe
It's also
Darker than dark
Shadows?
Shadows are not Dark
They are it's children
Very much like it
But small and weak
Or merely scared
Always running from the Light
Who hates the Dark
Do you know why Light
So bright in its self
hates the Dark?
Maybe I don't know the answer Shadows Do they define the person?
Maybe I know it in my heart
Maybe shadows are not completely dark
But instead
Is the part of us
That we've become
Shadows The answer, my dear
To your question is yes
and no
The answer to mine
is very simple
Light is mortal
Dark is immortal
Light is small and difiant
Dark is infinite and everywhere
Light envies Dark
Dark pities Light
Light hates Dark
Dark loves Light
For every time Light appears
Dark's children multiply
Shadows, my dear
Were always us
We just weren't them
Ahh, but Light is not mortal
For neither can live
While the other one survives
Like ying and yang
They balance each other out
Also, shadows
There is a saying
Of being a shadow of their former self
But how did they came to be
A shadow of their former self?
Hehehe, very close,
But not quiet
When the last of Light dies
Dark stops being Dark
And Shadows stop being Shadows
For when Light is gone
Dark becomes Nothing
Nothing, in it's truest form
Nothing, that is everywhere
Nothing that is No where
Nothing that is Nobody
And Shadows
Become Dark themselves
And Light comes again
And so it begins again
For we are Shadows of Nothing
Eternal and Supreme Nothing
We long for it without knowing it
We want to be Nothing
Because Nothing
Is Everything
Ahh, but what about when it's nightime? Shadows I believe Emotions Life
There's still the stars and the moon
I do not think that I can best you
But I can try
Let me try from my aspect
My POV
Can help define and at the same time not define
Who a person really is
Take Shadow for an example
He has become nothing but a shell of his former self
What pushed him to do it?
To become a shadow
You must face hardships
For everything can be nothing
And at the same time mean something
That probably didn't make sense though
Very well my dear Shadows The problem with your view Emotions It makes senses Light I simple must ask
But there is little hope
When dealing with the Insane
Am I?
I must be.
Why else do I think
That the world is blind?
Or maybe I just saw
What no one wanted to see
In that Light they love
And that Dark they fear
Is that you made assumptions
That Shadows are shells are shells
That Nothing isn't anything
What pushes one
To be a shadow
Isn't emotions
Just one
It can be any one
But it's always just one
In the end
For maybe you realize
That Shadows don't see something
And nothing
Like you do
Why do you like the Light?
Why do you think it's good?
Why do you think it wins?
When it's already lost.
You're very good Talk Walk like we can Shadows There's much to think Light Does it truly
I really can't best you
No, I did not
Say that they were emotionless
They can still feel
But they have become an entirely different peron
And to learn from them
I believe
For where there is darkness
There is always light
At nighttime,
The stars and the moon shine
During the daytime
The shadows follow us
It is clear that you are the winner
Now I must ask
Do you believe in
Love at first sight?
So what did you think? I really liked doing this with Akuma and all. It's really fun. Please leave a review! I really want to know what were your thoughts on this.
