InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Poetry of the Sengoku Jidai ❯ The Dungeon ( Chapter 10 )
[ A - All Readers ]
The Dungeon
I cannot move and the
weight of me pulls
into the earth, pressing me down.
So many things I should do,
experiment, explore…
grow, change, move, want…
But the darkness and drain
hold me fast, pinned
to myself and my everchanging body.
Desire sleeps in my heart
and briefly I am free of it,
free of everything but myself.
Even the freedom
does not please me and I
wallow in the arms and legs of my existence.
Tomorrow the sun will come up,
ambition will surge through me
again and I will slither and roll my way back into the world.
