Is This It?

by kenshinlover17

If you have ever seen the first episode, you'll know what I'm talking about. If not, then just sit back and ejoy what my mind can come up with in two hours. Believe me, it is really good

Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin. If I did, you people would know about it.

Kenshinlover: Okay. I know I haven't updated my story in a while. So sue me. I'm lazy. L-A-Z-Y. I just need to get off my but and type it. This little piece of poetry is what you get when you have PE for a class, it's finals week, and you have two hours on a metal bench in the gym. You know what I call that, TORTURE! My butt went numb within 30 minutes.

DarkMagician: Oh, it's not that bad. At least it was only for two hours

Starchild: Yeah! And you had your CD player and your imagination. To you, pencil + paper = stories.

Kenshinlover: Your right on that. Anyway, please review for this poem. I'm going to mail it in for a contest so I need your opinions. This is vital.

Is This It?

(A Rurouni Kenshin Poem)

Is this it?

Is this what I have fought for?

To stand on the edge of victory…

…or defeat.

It is dangerous.

Amber eyes glow intensly

As sparks light up the night.

Then, violet leaks

As I prepare to strike.

I hesitate…then stop.

Red swirls around me

As I turn and walk the other way.

I glance down at my hands.

Their flesh is gone.

All I see on them is blood.

"No more" I whisper.

Then I sheath my sword

And disappeared into the night.

Screams fill the air with smoke and light.

Is this it?

Is this what I have fought for?

All for the sake of a new era…

Kenshinlover: Alright. There you have it. Personally, I think it touches something. Don't know what, but I know it touches something. It struck a chord in my heart. And I wrote this! R/R please!
