Wow, I actually bothered to post something other than my random fanfic which I never update. I know. I'm surprised too. Anyway, I was really bored in Social class, so I wrote a Lunar Knights poem. Yup, I'm cool.
Before you read this, I want to warn you that I've never actually played the game. I've hung over my brother's shoulder and read reviews on the internet, but that's about the extent of my knowledge. So if something in here isn't completely accurate, I apologize. Call it "artistic representation", if you will.
Just an update, I fixed this so the stanzas actually showed, instead of congealing into one huge mass. It looks much better now.
Lunar Knights and all related characters belong to Konami. Rawr.

They're
just children
Yet
they're forced to fight for all of us
One
bright like the sun that hides from our world
And
the other pale and defiant
Like
a small white flame that just won't blow out
Yes,
they're children
Even
the one who faced death and came out on top
Yet
still they're our warriors, champions in this time of need
It
isn't fair
It
isn't right
They're
just children
But
they're all we've got
Let
them fight for us
If
they're twisted and broken like the rest of mankind
At
least they'll feel like they belong
Who
cares about age in this hopeless battle
They
wield sword and gun, they can liberate, do damage
Their
parents are dead and gone, there's no one to hold them back
They're
not our children
Let
them fight
We're
just children
Small
lives thrust into this vortex of conflict
Yet
we do our share and pull our weight
Like
soldiers, like slaves
Held
by this nightmare we can't escape
When
he thinks I'm not looking
His
face darkens and I can see how much we are alike
Forced
to grow up
But
never growing up
How
much longer can we continue this farce?
We're
just children
Lost
and alone, abandoned by the older generation
We
seek refuge but find nothing but darkness
And
we fight against that darkness, strike it, banish it
Doing
all we can, but doing nothing
His
light is so bright
It
would blind me, were it not so warm
We
are alone in this world of grim adults
And
I don't think he knows just how much he means to me
He
won't ever know-I'll never tell him
They're
just children
Unable
to comprehend the bond that connects them
One
is too proud to acknowledge it
The
other unaware
But
if one fell the other would always catch him
This
strength seems so little
But
when despair presses in they fight back
With
a strength no adult could ever match
They're
just children
And
that's why victory is ours

What do you think? Love it? Hate it? It's kinda random I guess...But I find it rather ironic that a war that determines the fate of all mankind is being fought by two teenagers. They seem to do a good job of it, but still. Hmm.
