Shattered Pieces
The broken pieces shattered everywhere,
He went over and picked one up.
Regretting everything he done
Everything one he'd hurt
Who in the broken glass did he see?
Someone full of joy and laughter
Being replaced with someone cold and heartless
Out to taste victory over battle
Out to satisfy the lust
Watching someone fall at your feet by your hands
Is it that good of a feeling?
Is it really worth all the costs?
Or is it just twisted?
He was the manslayer…
He disguised himself all this time
And he had showed his true colors
Abolishing everyone who whom stands in his way
Slaying and slashing
Leaving a trail of permanent work
Permanent work that shall always remain
Not going away, ever.
The broken glass mirror lay shattered everywhere
He looked back in the broken piece
Not caring if it pricked his fingers
In the glass, he sees someone that learns to care for others
Someone that is full of life
Someone that protects others
But sadly that someone is gone, gone like the rest of the others
But yet his cold unforgiving expression remains
Untouched by what lay around him
A child like face but now replaced by a cold hard one
Tangled in a sea of emotions
He searches for the answer
An answer to a question that was left unanswered
Is this really who I am?
Is this the true Battousai the Manslayer?
Am I who I said I am to be?
Am I to be like this for eternity?
Is this who I want to be?
People care for me
But do I know?
Or am I just blind from the inside?
The reversed blade lay by his side
A katana used to protect but now destroys
Its blade remained its dark crimson stain from past battles
He stands up and threw the glass piece away
He walked out of the dojo and out forever
Not ever setting another foot back in
Is he doomed to take the body of the hitokiri?
Will he wander like this all his days?
Is this really had to be his twisted future?
His path leaves behind memories
Memories full of lust and no mercy
Memories no one wants to be reminded of
The past is done
His fate is sealed
"Because I am the legendary Battousai the Manslayer,
And I shall remain him till the day I depart this world."
The End
Please RR!! How was it?
