Behind Closed Eyes
Behind closed eyes,
What is seen but
Guilt and regret?
Protector and friend,
Soldier and companion,
Only to stand by
As God and demon blood
mix.
Regret and self-loathing
Fill the heart of the
Man who cared only for
The life of a boy
Forced to become a man all too
Soon.
Watching as a great battle
Took place, wanting to
Reach out, wanting to take
The boys place,
Yet glued to the spot
Outside a flaming building
By order of a demon in Heaven.
The little boy and the man
Locked their true hearts away,
Forever silenced, forever still,
Always keeping all emotions
Locked deep inside.
Author's comments: I really wanted to do a Shien centered fic, but didn't have the time, so I wrote this. o.o; Pathetic, yes? Like it? Want it to die? What? What's that? You didn't review? ..Then put a sock in it!
