A deeper yearning(Hitokiri Battousai)

by Ria   Jan 5, 2006


The moon is sleeping high above
A caravan in winter 's cold
Another desert of my own,
This night, a promise curved on stone

I 'll sleep below the trees again
Their rustle won' t be a relief
And as before, it 'll burst in rain
Let those Grey clouds express my grief

A fight against me, on my own
Wandering streets of traded vows
Only my shadow on this place
Only the echo of my ways

Outside a torn man, bred in war
Trying to smile and carry on
Inside a wolf, that lusts for prey
Caressing his sword when others pray

Cut me, make me bleed,
Tear me to pieces
I challenge all my ghosts tonight
Doubt me, make me kneel
Until pain ceases,
Watch my blazing eyes...

Sound of my footsteps in this town
Couldn' t sound more pleasing to my ears
I think a smile has come to me
After the pain of many years

This ecstasy I feel is wrong
Yet Hitokiri' s blood runs cold
A shade of me, so hard to see
Awoken

Master my voice as I draw near
In light of day I' ll disappear
I just returned to kiss my home
Goodnight

Master my hands and hold me near
Trying to allure is what I hold dear
Kneel to my shadow on the floor
At night

Face me now and end this warmth
My heart is beating harder now
What is this power that you hold
To make a killer drop and bow

Cut me, make me bleed
Tear me to pieces
God cannot forbid my crimes
Doubt me, make me kneel
Until hate sheathes
Watch my blazing eyes ...

Down on my knees
I feel so hopeless
Now time takes its toll on me
A patriot led by minor knowledge
That never bred his spirit free

Kiss me Master,
Give my strength
When strong again
I shall avenge this weakness

For all my crimes I shall atone
Just one more night to taste your blood
I bury this need once and for all
I bury you within it

Cut me, make me see
Tear me to pieces
Lords of men forbid this night
Let me lick your blood,
Let me touch your crimes
All along the way,
don’t forget
my blazing eyes

    I like this poem. I'm just sure why I can't seem to put my fingure on it. The flow was great and so was the format that you used. The rhyming was also good. another 5/5 good job keep up the good work.

    Brillian peice. seemed to have a rhythm to it thoughout. the rhyming did seem a little forced in some places, but not in any major way.

    5/5
