Meaning of the Word
I do not own Naruto
Betrayal
To myself, towards myself, from myself
What does it mean to be betrayed, to betray?
Is it giving false loyalties or trust?
No….. It is much deeper then that
Something only the deepest and darkest of sinners feel or act upon
The dark act of becoming a traitor is a lonely one
You are never forgiven by any person
All of the hurt feelings are covered by euphoria
Opiated, people give forgiveness freely, masking all feelings
Of hate to the one who deceived and hurt them before
My solitary eyes see through the feigned forgiveness
I see all of the pain caused by my actions
All the trust I have lost
All of the friendships that have been broken apart because
Of my foolish greed to make myself better
It's your eyes that reveal it all to me
Those scrutinizing, judgmental eyes always
Burning into me
Just tell me you didn't, don't and won't
Ever forgive my selfishness then
Perhaps my frozen heart will cease to ache
Maybe after that the emptiness in my life will
Cease its rapid growth
Only then will my mind possibly
Stop its self infliction of pain
I don't ask forgiveness, instead
I give my apologies, don't
Say you understand how I feel because
My traitorous mind will not accept your words
As you read this do not cry tears
Of resent or of sadness
They are wasted on my damned soul
Keep them for others who will need to feel your
Pity or grief
No one should feel a thing towards
My dark tattered lost soul
Tick tock…. Tick tock….. Tick tock…
The clock on the wall continued to tell time even though the house didn't have use for it any more. The owner's hand lay inches away from the torn parchment that held the depressing words. Crimson liquid stained the edges as it spread from the wrist of the motionless boy.
The raven hair of the boy spread around his resting head that faced towards the open door. Dull onyx eyes stared at nothing, no longer having the function of sight. The chest no longer rose and fell as it once had. The pale faced complexion was impeccable when seen in the fading moonlight.
The metallic smell of blood lingered in the room even though the wind blew through gently. It picked up the ripped square and pressed it against the door that opened into the world that still lay in sleep.
On the back of the worded slip of paper was the image of team seven's group picture.
Sakura was closest to the front giving a peace sign while sticking her tongue out at the camera. The blond haired shinobi, Naruto stood behind the pink haired girl to her right. He stood with his orange clad arms crossed over his chest. His sapphire hued eyes were narrowed at the somebody who stood to the kunoichi's left. A hand that wore a fingerless glove mussed the annoyed boy's hair. The hand belonged to the Jounin who acted Sensei to the trio. His gray tinted hair stuck up to the side as his leaf forehead protector slanted down over his left eye. His visible eye was curved into an arch that proclaimed, one would assume happiness. The rest of Kakashi's face was covered by his ever worn black mask. The Jounin's other arm curved over and disappeared into the torn part of the picture.
The third member of the Genin team no longer appeared in the photograph. Instead the only clue that gave an idea of what was missing from the photo was the slight dark blue sliver of color that appeared over Sakura's left shoulder.
The wind halted briefly letting the image whirl back onto the hardwood floor. It rested slightly longer before the breeze swept through the room again this time letting the paper be carried out if the door and into the rising sun in the eastern sky.
