Two Sides
Here's my next poem, it came to me at my family reunion while talking to one of my relatives. Enjoy!
Only one question stabs me every day that passes,
Am I even suppose to exist?
Does Link even remember me, and does he have any idea what kind of sorrow I'm left with?
Warm tears soak through my black tunic as I watch the young Hylian walk around Hyrule field,
His face said he was ready to fight anything, but I felt his heart skip a beat when he saw skull kids appear when night arrived.
I look down and I still see my reflection,
The complete opposite of me still laughs at me and I feel my own mind drifting.
I know life is precious and that life is what gives us meaning,
But I was created not born with life.
Ganon just stole someone else's just to give me a fake life,
Filled with hatred, suffering and eventually death.
I look back now and I see that he raised me sad and mad all the time,
His words meant nothing as I grew up to be the shadow I am now.
I just wish that Link had the option of having a mother and father just like every other kid has,
But because of Ganon, he's an orphan.
I watch as the sun comes up and as Link falls asleep in the tall grass,
I smile and only wish the best for him.
He knows what lies ahead of him but can he determine his own fate before it's too late?
My own destiny is still unknown but I feel as though I must follow him,
As though he is the link to my own destiny…
