Song: "Hey Jude" (The Beatles)

Mood: Calm



Hate You



Like a…

Do you know who I am?

You think I'm a little strange

Little poison in your brain

Keeping you weeping

Like I'm just cold as…

Ice

Stone

Sister, maybe

Sly, cunning panther

Watching, thinking of you

Every time you've cried your tears

All these years

And I was…

Always in the shadows, laughing at you

Saying you're weak, and although that might be true,

I'm just…

Helping you steer your boat,

So you won't go down the wrong path,

Saving you from pain,

Mother's death, Father's wrath

Little foolish girl, easily swayed

You know nothing of the past,

Years long ago that passed so fast…

I don't want you to become…

I want to protect you from…

Someone like me

So you be happy

Lively

Satisfied

Unlike me

Me, who no one knows

Who stays locked up in my room

And there's nowhere to go

Pitiful, pitiful, proud, regal me

Who still cries inside at those words so often said

Words that so often escape your lips

"Hate You"



A/N: From now on, I'm not posting the POVs of my poems, because I was so happy when mai-sama reviewed, and interperated my poems from an entirely different POV. I was quite surprised, and happy that some of her ideas for who the poem represents was more fitting than mine. That the entire reason why I write poems! To allow room for lotsa different interperations. Most of these poems weren't even written as hardcore Esca poems. Actually, "Again" is a song I wrote about WWII, but it also fits with Esca.

Oh, and I almost forgot: For "Descent of the Warrior," the last two lines were written by either Tony An or Moon Hee Jun…can't remember which.
