A HITOKIRI'S REVOLUTION

Darkness was all around him
Death was in the air
Crimson blood
Dropped onto the concrete path

The sword in his hand
Quickly went down
Into the fallen man

His eyes were cold
They shed no tears
They showed no signs of regret

As he removed his sword
And wiped away the blood
His amber eyes shook with rage

His wife was dead
His only love
She had sacrificed herself
To save him

The winter snow had been
Red that day
Along with the sky
And the weeping tree

He burned her
In their wooden house
Swearing in revenge

The only true remembrance of her
Was the cross-shaped scar on his cheek

His sword was faster then lightning
And all that fought him
Paid with their lives

He cut his way through the revolution
And as it came to an end
The Hitokiri Battousai left his sword
Stabbing the earth

Then he disappeared
And was never seen again

Some people say he died
Some say he ran away
For no one knows
The truth about

The legendary Hitokiri Battousai's disappearance
