Pain
I cut myself today,
Naruto looked down at his wrist which had a cut going from across his arm with blood flowing out of the wound.
To see if I can still feel,
Naruto didn't like doing this but he always found himself doing it, his sometimes feared that if he didn't, he'd go insane from all the pain.
To set my mind free,
The pain came from his heart. The pain came from all the hurtful glares and whispers that where all raised when he went by. The pain came from his teammates and teachers who pretended to care but never really did.
To let my heart breath,
But most of the pain came from not having anybody to love and care for him, sure Iruka likes him, but that's a lie, no one would like a demon.
To close my eyes,
Naruto put his bloody wrist under the sink and washed his cut. Then he went to his bedroom were a broken pile of what use to be his furniture stood in the middle, because his house had been vandalized.
And open them,
Not that he cared, no he stopped caring a long time ago. He look for something to use as a blanket and found a towel that only had a few rips on it. He curled up in a ball and fell asleep crying and alone like always.
To a better world,
He woke up and went to look for something to wear. He found a pare of black pants and a black long sleeve shirt. He had his head band around his neck and looked into his broken mirror. Putting his hand up to the broken glass and said "Broken, just like me"
But it never came,
He put his hand down and looked at him self; his hair was a dull blond with red strikes going through it. His skin was pale, as winter and his eyes were a dull gray, as though his tears toke the color away.
The same old world came into view,
Naruto stepped out side of the small apartment and headed for the small party that was a anniversary of the living a whole year as a ninja. All of the teams were supposed to be there, it was held at the training grounds. He was already 2 hours late because he had tried to fall asleep, but even then he didn't get more then a few minutes of sleep.
The world of pain and misery,
Naruto saw the party come into view and thought about not going at all. He decided to go because there was food and he was hungry, he hadn't eaten since yesterday morning. He walked up to a tree and leaned on it, no one had noticed him come.
I shut my eyes tight and wish it all away,
Everyone was talking to one another when Kiba all of a sudden asked "Where's Naruto?" Everyone shut up "I haven't seen him since yesterday" said Sakura. Naruto didn't care about his teammates talking about him.
Then the pain comes, the memories,
Naruto got annoyed at his "friends" talking and decided to step in, "Can you all shut up I'm right here!" Everyone stopped at the blood chilling voice. "Naruto don't scare us like that" Sakura said and made a move to hit him on the back of his head, but Naruto caught the hand and twisted it and slammed Sakura into the tree.
I try to wash them away,
Everyone looked at Naruto and Ino said "Naruto what the hell is wrong with you".
"Everything" whispered Naruto, and with that he disappeared into the wind.
Then the light comes and I reach for it,
Everyone looked at the spot where Naruto had been before.
I grab onto it and the light washes over me,
No one knew were the young blonde had gone off to that fateful day, but they say that he was happy where ever he had gone.
Like the angles in haven are callen for me, I sink into the light like a dream come true, the one and only real dream that I had, to be happy.
