Vengeance

Revenge, all too common.

"I SWEAR I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE."

Revenge, is all consuming.

"Nothing matters to me more than this."

Revenge, is but...... a means of escape.

"I did it! Mama... Papa... I've finally avenged you!"

What lies at the end of revenge,

She laughs alone where nobody is watching. The smile she had thrown away so long ago resurfaces again. The childlike innocence in her laughter resounds throughout the room.

"Mama, Papa... Where are you?"

Frantic eyes search the room, but there's no one there.

"I succeeded.... I finally succeeded.... So, praise me"

Her voice cracks as she says this.

"Say that I did a good job... Please?"

Tears flow down her cheeks and a cry of anguish breaks the silence of the lonely night.

Is emptiness.

- Inspiration from Gundam 00 - Episode 21

Seal thy lips and lock thy heart,
But do remember we'll never part.
Through pain and fear and sorrow true,
Bring to light what thy can't undo,
And I'll be there with a smile for you.
