Sta.sh
Crying out from the darkness that has become my soul,
Wondering when my suffering will cease.
It only hurts—
It only burns—
Every second I have to breathe;
Gulping air into a dry airway,
Down a throat rough from crying,
To its destination of my tattered lungs.
The needles of pain shoot through me
With every gasp I dare to take.
Will it continue without ever easing?
The tears that spill from my eyes
Are proof enough that I've reached my limit;
My capacity for the suffering.
I wish to suffer no more.
But wishes are as useless as the hope
That eventually my excruciating existence will end.
I will wait here in the dark
Until even the darkness has been eliminated,
In the hopes that, I, too,
In that moment, will be taken with it.

speechless. Simply speechless.
I cannot imagine how to comment on a demonstration of agony that magnificent. There is so much pain behind these lines, that I literally suffered when reading it. I felt quite the same when watching Kuro, but this is even more intense. Not that I cried, but I was reminded once again of how cruel the world is from time to time.
A great poem, and a great effort by you posting it. Baring that much of one's deepest thoughts definetly isn't easy.
Thank you. I will say that I was a little embarrassed to post, but mostly because I thought it was bad
The end is tragic isn't it? It made me depressed for quite a few days but that's the sign of a good anime. It gets your emotionally attatched to the character. Then again you can take away a little something from each character in anything. Be it a book, movie, anime, manga, real people...That's the amazing thing.
I really loved this poem because I agree with you, it seems different from some of your other ones. Ciel does have a habit of inspiring people. (:
As for the description I don't think it's too long. I think it's perfect the way it is. It explains your thoughts, the reasoning behind them, and the poem in general.
Very nice work, Nulli.
