Identity
Shadow Knight
Disclaimer: Ditto. . . of the last poem. ^_^
Um. . . this is for Mystique. And man did it take a long time! Wow. I never thought she would be this hard. Well, actually, it really was just hard to start it and stuff. Ah well. I'll shut up now and let you read.
Enjoy. ^_~

Flickering faces before my eyes,
Sing a demented lullaby.
Shudders running down my spine,
Drowning sorrows in scarlet wine.
Clawing fingers at the door,
Screaming voices shake my core.
Pleading eyes crying for mercy,
Darken from my hand, striking tersely.
Buried past, obscured histories,
Burned, forgotten, and lost miseries.
Closing my eyes, I fall in blackened abyss,
Failing to notice that there's something amiss.
Newborn eyes with blindness gone,
Reveals to me that I'm just a pawn.
In this violent, brutal game,
I will be the one to blame.
For I have captured immortality,
Becoming life's abnormality.
Fire effulging me in a flame,
Stepping out, I'm not the same.
Changing with my many faces,
Running from life's many races.
Yet, I still fall to my knees,
Through crying eyes I try to see.
Reasons why my life has fallen apart,
Causes for my lonely and broken heart.
Slipping away in my cold, numb fingers,
Sadness prevails as angst still lingers.
For the love, the happiness, and family I lost,
All to pay for my foolish acts; a terrible cost.
Now I will live forever alone,
Trying to make up for and atone.
For the horrible acts committed,
When I was young and dimwitted.
Lost in time, I become an obscenity,
As I search for my forgotten identity.

Wow. . . . I think this was the longest one. . . ever. Wow. ANYWAYS. 0_o I just wanted to say thank you again for all of those who have reviewed, read, and asked me to do a poem for a specific character. I appreciate it LOTS! ^_^ Thanks again.
Um. . . about Mystique. . .well. I think that after changing her face so much, she actually has forgotten who she really is and has to search for herself. And the bit about the family refers to Kurt and Rogue. She lost them because of her negligence and junk.
PLEASE REVIEW!!!! This is what keeps the poems coming! Ciao. ^_~
P.S. Magneto may be next. . . who knows. . .
