Another Last Breath

O

Clad in heavy wraps

The sand muffles my footsteps.

I didn't want this.

O

My life knocked askew

I suffer in solitude.

It has been so long…

O

The memories fresh

Each haunts me as I trek on.

A purposeless march.

O

Bitter victory.

I was a clockwork demon,

And Shimada burned.

O

But now? I am lost.

As Shimada turned to ash,

I fled from the smoke.

O

There was no dragon.

Just a foolish revenant

Blinded by anger.

O

And now I'm alone

Wallowing in self pity.

I am a disgrace.

O

Unholy fusion

Of both man and mechanics

Shunned by both parties.

O

The storm's picking up

Sand ripping at exposed steel

Exhaustion sets in.

O

The man is tired

And the machine is failing.

I've neglected both.

O

My spirit is gone

And the desert swallows me.

This is why I'm here.

O

My lights grow dimmer

And I fall to the blonde sea;

this is all that's left.

O

I have no more rage.

Genji Shimada is dead

And his family too.

O

As my vision blurs

Nine glowing dots pierce the veil.

And then my eyes close.

O

My wraps cast aside

The storm beats on my chassis.

The world is fading...

O

I burned too quickly

Half as long and twice as bright.

I succumb to sleep.

O

I don't curse Hanzo.

Someone else deserves this breath.

"Goodbye; Good Doctor."
