Whisper of the Beast

Cold stares and hard glares...

Why do you look at me this way?

I am a child, alone in this world,

Empty of heart and oh, so lonely.

They whisper behind me:

"Don't look..."

"Stay away..."

"Monster..."

"Demon..."

"Killer..."

Is that what I am to you?

Nothing to be treasured,

To be cared for.

Alive,

Yet dead.

I clutch feebly at the edge,

Trying not to let go,

To feel loved.

To feel hope.

As the darkness closes in,

The light fading.

For I can't see for the shadows in my mind.

And the poison in my heart.

And then the tears come,

Overflowing from my eyes.

Dreams trashed before they are even formed.

And silence all around.

Demon, am I?

Then so shall I be.

I will close up,

Like an anenime.

Hide myself away.

Lock up my heart...

And try not to shatter.

For I am the monster you made me to be.

And I like it.

Liquid life flows like a waterfall...

Marking my hands,

Bloodstained hands...

And blood red eyes...

I hate you.

Can not love anymore, for you will not give me any.

Only can I hate.

I will be your nightmare...

The nightmare of mine enemies.

And when they come...

To slay me, to destroy me.

I will feel alive

As the blood drips from my fingers.

And as I bite into living flesh.

But if you want to know the truth...

If you really want to see...

If you really want to know...

Open your eyes...

And then open them again...

To see the beast within...

And the shattered remains of my soul...

I am not me.

I am currently depressed and this is the result... --; This poem can be thought as for the jinchuuriki. Since I'm so depressed, you will have to wait until I get out of this to update I Wish... andFangirls. But Fangirls is because I don't have enough fangirls for the fic...

Oh...me no own Naruto. The poem is mine though.
