Warnings: 2nd
person PoV. Two stories in one (see if you can find it). Angst, I
guess.
Disclaimer: I
really don't own Naruto.
Summary: "You" think of things as "you" walk up a mountain. Think of "A tale of Kitsune Revisited" from Ai.
Author's note: ...I really like writing two stories into one...poetry lets that be a little more obvious, too...still experimenting with this style. We'll see where it goes.
Title: traveling between
Narrator: "You" are intended to be Naruto.
Rating: PG-13 for the sadness and possible confusion.

Status: complete as it gets, I believe.

What I wrote it for: XiaoBai (so called on deviantART) drew me a picture. I felt like responding with words. If I get around to it, I plan on writing similar "art inspired" pieces for other contestants...
Go see the pic that inspired it!

traveling between...by Taes
You walk, listening to the sound of wind chiming in your ears,
Waiting
for yours and the simple ecstasy of light and shadow. You see the ghosts of color falling through the air, you see the simple signs of sadness
for
what else can sadness be but
color
on the wind?
You hear only your footsteps
in
the hard dirt, for a while, and your ears burn for
the
cold wind on your
heart
's mind, your mind's presentation of your body that walks and freezes up the path. The only thing you can do is continue, the only thing you can say is,
"Of
"late, he's gone afar...gone into the
"kingdoms
"of darkness and the wings of hate and compassion will steal his heart away."
And when your feet hit the ground, your ears become wary of the things about you, the leaves falling with the chill air, a small smile on an invisible spirit's face
of
his white, white mask. What can you do but seek your
dreams?
Will
you
take
it?
(end of this one)
So. What'd you think?
