FicWad

AN: I was feeling extreme angst after reading a fic that was completely OOC and the shitty characterisation of Sasuke annoyed me no end. So this is my remedy for bad writing.

No Longer

Once there was a boy
A loving, kind boy
One that had a mother who comforted him
One that had a brother who once loved him
One that had a father who finally saw him

But the boy was thrust into darkness
And no one saw the hurt and fear
Eventually hidden by the mask I wore
Because they didn't care
Not one little bit

I was once a boy
A shinobi worthy of greatness
Deemed only a tool
For the use of others

Itachi* of Retribution
Kitsune of Rivalry
Hebi of Power

There's a jagged tear across my heart
It's cold and unforgiving
Just like the ice that freezes
Just like the pain that immobilises

There's a jagged tear across my soul
A longing that twists beyond recognition
Just a permanent mar of brokenness
Just a permanent reminder of death

There's only pain now
Or what people say is pain
I don't know
I don't know how to feel
Any more

There's only breathing now
So slowly it only stills

There's only beating now
Sadistic thumps in the void

There's nothing now
I don't know the concept of a past
There is only the present
And the everlasting need
Or so they tell me

My mind no longer tells me
My limbs play to their tune
I no longer trust me

There's a jagged tear across my heart
So why should I feel
There's a jagged tear across my soul
So why should I live

There's only pain now
Why isn't there silence
There's only breathing now
Why isn't there
There's only beating now
Why isn't
There's nothing now
Why
