Ever since I can remember
The Earth has been my home
Living off the lands to which
I so curiously roam
I try to settle and find a home
But then I loose control
And so I hold back the pain and run
A tattered lonesome soul
Along the way I've made foes and friends
They seem to come and go
Conversation seems too shallow
As though some greed with what they know
I finally find friends who truly care
And thought I'd found a home at last
But then things changed through solemn fears
And revealed secrets of a throbbing past
And so I turned and ran once more
To he who was my only hope
He tells me what I want to hear
Now I'm a puppet tethered to his rope
Soon enough I return to them
But not for fun and games
I'm on a mission from my Master
To retrieve Secrets and destroy Fame
I begin to regret what I've done
But it's too late to turn around
Now I must savor their last moments
And try my hardestto not break down
Accusations rend the silence of the night
His voice as sharp as Eagle's talons
Secret woes revealed to him
His deadly venom seeks a challenge
He tells him tales of sick Betrayal
Now he knows my dumb mistakes
I can't look him in the eye
I don't know how much I can take
I am a traitor beneath the flesh
My virtues cold Betrayal and numb Denial
His power, strength and thoughts
Are now for sure my godly Idols
I guess I had to hurt myself
To see if I could still feel
I tore my life apart
And the pain just seems unreal
Crying in the tattered silence
A wounded coward hides from all
Shadows cast among the flames
Of my blunders, sins, and flaws
I have no mask to hide behind
All can see me for what I am
It's been this way for so long
That I don't give a damn
He rules me with an iron fist
Controlling my every move
He'll kill them if he wants but he'll be sure
It's me who leashes them and leads them on to Doom
Disgusting anguish not be theirs to burden
It should belong to me alone
Dumb mistakes create this past
I so grievously know
What am I to you now
My gentle naïve friend
I have betrayed you for myself
I must die in the end
So wash my memories away
I'll save you if it's the last thing I do
Don't bear the pain my friend
Because I'll bear it for you
I must stay dearest friend—I've been your foe for so long
That I'll be your hero today
And anyway I have nothing left to live for
So let me slip away
Sure I'll give my life for you
Am I still a powerful foe?
Please leave before I cannot stop
The power of this woe
I weep for them in his arms
And say a last goodbye
A cry for mercy slashes through the air
As liquid fire rises high
A silence fills the cavern
The dust begins to clear
It's all over now my friends
And there's nothing left to fear
Author's Note: I'm just going to guess you know exactly who this was about. The narrator was Terra, the one who "tells him tales of sick Betrayal" is Slade, and the one who was told "tales of sick Betrayal" is Beast Boy. I love poetry and this was a kind of…weird inspiration if you will. I was waiting on my mom to stop watching TV and help me make a SnowCone. I am writing bloopers but you can't post them so I might just put them on my profile. If nothing else I'll put the on my website, which I REALLY need to update…My sister niobe10 wrote a verse to this too. I didn't include it because then the poem wouldn't be by ME!
If you're interested, here it is:
He watches my every move
Glaring with a watchful eye
He orders me and tells me what to do
Sometimes I want to cry
Also, I may put another chapter of some writing I did at school. It's kind of…Slade's reaction to what happened. For those of you don't know, 10/2's Teen Titans episode is called "Haunted" and Slade comes back. (OF COURSE! YOU CAN'T KILL SLADE! HE'S THE BEST MAN!) Yes I would work for Slade given the chance…then make an alliance with Father from Codename: Kids Next Door, and then Tim Scam from Totally Spies, then Vlad Plasmeus from Danny Phantom and so on…Maybe even Vicky from FairlyOdd Parents. No one would be able to defeat our Alliance of Villains and Adversaries! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay I'm done. I'll try to get that on here soon (the writing from school).
