"Nameless"
A question
Simple yet complex
Who am I?
I am not myself
Nor am I another
Nor am I the demon inside me
Nor the human within
Who am I?
This is simple
I am nameless.
Perhaps it was the mass confusion in his stone cold heart that was slowly warming, or the jumble of emotions welling inside him, or even the demon inside him struggling with all he had, but Pain had no idea just who he was. He had always been so sure, so positive (negative would probably be the better word). But now he was just another wandering soul on the face of the Earth. More confused than most though.
Another good question was why was he here? On Earth. Alive. What was his purpose in life? Did he have one? What was the point of living if he had no purpose? Especially when he'd be living for an eternity.
But he was a nameless soul. He did not know who he was, much less what his purpose was.
He had wandered in his bedroom to lie down and sleep the mystery away. It was not until he had laid down on the comfortable mattress that he realized Snare was not in here. He would have laid there not caring if it hadn't been for the fact that she could have plotted a despicable scheme and was near about to pounce. He forced himself to leave the welcoming comfort of his bed and he went over. Slowly, without really caring, he searched for her. When he didn't find her he felt an odd mix of relief and dread welling up inside him.
Was he free? No, he was confined to the dread of her coming at any moment. But the least he could do was sleep the pain away. She had actually been right. Sleep would help. Sleep would give his mind rest.
Cutting off the lights, he lied down in bed and pulled the sheets over him as he drifted away into a soundless slumber. There the nameless soul rested for the first time in a long time without his vile Tormentress at his side.
Into the night sky
Drift my worries
Dotting the sky like stars
I have never slept
Like this ever before
Was it because I was nameless
Because I was without purpose
Or because my Tormentress
Was no where to be found?
