A/N: At first I didn't want to write about this moment because most of us SasuSaku_Shippers hated this. But then it is a really important moment. So here we go...

Confessions of an Avenger

Your innocent skin

Darkness crawled its way up into my soul.

And you are one of those who paid its toll.

Never had I expected this long awaited meeting

to turn into a nightmare way too excruciating.

"Sasuke-kun!" I heard that mellifluous voice of yours.

And your name rolled off my tongue as if it was a cure.

"I am abandoning the leaf village and coming with you."

No you are not. I won't let you.

"I've always regretted not going with you…"

Huh…you really do love me, don't you?...

Only that you can't…you can't give me anymore of this…

this replacement of my solitude with your gift of bliss…

Don't offer me that look of understanding

when you don't really know a thing!

My brother sacrificed everything for that village.

My raging hatred gave me a proper vantage.

My clan became the victim, this whole village the convict!

You along with the others are guilty. I don't need to predict!

The actual culprit's sane living caused me distress.

To get rid of it, I became heartless.

Thoughts of revenge clouded my perception.

Right and wrong no longer had any distinction.

My eyes looked into the dark, no light.

Like a lone wolf, howling in the night.

A trigger was pushed inside my head.

On the wrong path, it urged me to tread.

Mislead by a web of convincing lies,

I did something that violated our ties.

It wasn't me but the conspiracy of the wicked fate.

It's influence was so intense I couldnot contemplate

and I ended-up committing an unforgivable sin

by laying my hands on your innocent skin…

Note:- So Sasuke didn't want to kill Sakura but Itachi's death, all the truth and the village elders had fucked-up his mind really bad..so bad that even he didn't know what he was doing and he committed the sin of laying a hand on his precious queen, the only speck of light in his dark life.

Well, that's it for this verse.
