Disclaimer: I do not own Rurouni Kenshin, only this poem.

Author's Note: Thank you everyone for all the positive reviews! Anyways back to the poem, this is another Battosai/ Kenshin one. So I hope you all enjoy and I'm looking forward to hear your comments about it.

Do you hear them?

Do you feel them?

The demons of my past have finally come

Am I to die by their hands?

The wind whispers in my ear

About times long thought lost

When corruption led to countless deaths

Am I the reason for that fault?

Are they a trick of the mind? Surely not…

My blood goes cold, and I start to choke

The pain starts tearing at my soul

No! Now I'm alone

As I struggle to get up, I fall

Fall into a hole so big I gasp

Watching lovely memories flash by

But ended up vomiting again

As depression and misery were following me again

Nothing can save me

I look around blindly… Bringing me closer to the end

I couldn't hold it, so I cried out once more

Then this damaged soul became nothing more…
