InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Mother Dearest ❯ Follow-up Poem~ ( Chapter 1 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Wrote this… dunno when. Must have been shortly after doing `Mother Dearest'. Oh well. It's a short little follow up on Kagome's perspective, I guess…

Have you ever heart it?
That sound?
That thundering?

That horrid sound?
Those heartwrenching cries?

The sound of war,
despite what many have said,
Is not glorious.
Not with honor,
Not with grace.

Those horrid noises,
Rolling 'bout the land.

What is so glorious about death?
What is so honorable about killing?

Who says that having a man's blood on your hands is good?
The sound of war.

The cries of men.
The thundering of footsteps.
The cries of pain.
The hurt in their eyes.

The fear in their eyes.
