Naruto

Disclaimer: This poem is inspired by the great series, Naruto, which is owned by Kishimoto Masashi. I do not own any of the characters and anything related to Naruto. Just borrowing Sasuke for this fic/poem.

A/N: This is my first Naruto fic. Just so you know, it's Sasuke's point of view. The thoughts in each stanza shifts but all in all, they're all just how Sasuke thinks about them. Anyway, here it is!


Haunting Me

As I stare at the starless sky

With the mystic moon up so high

The terror of that day haunts me

As frightening as it could be

The blood and fear never left my memory

Dread, anger, hatred--the black tragedy

Always makes my soul quenching for vengeance

Till our battle--my reason for existence

My life, full of silent sorrow and regret

That them I was not able to protect

Now I live with only a thing in mind--

to gain power till satisfaction I find

If the evil fruit is what I need

All the hesitations I will not heed

Even if I have to leave all the happiness

Even if I have to sacrifice my friends

He tried to warn me, but it was futile

He tried to stop me, but him I ought to kill

Betrayal, indeed, is what I've done

But why is he still fighting when now I've gone?

I wanted to stay, but the truth hurts--

I don't belong to where they are

Destiny has its way to pull me back

That to me they seem to be so far

To lead a life with a heavy burden

To reject the kindness given to me

To leave my dearest friends

All these--forsaken for your defeat

Is the path I took the one for me?

That those I cherish are now my foes

The day of my return is coming near

What will happen, we'll never know


A/N: Sorry about that. I just wanted to write something about Sasuke. Hehe...So how was it? Tell me what you think! Please read and review!!! Everything is welcome.
