Monster of The Desert
April 28, 2014
Blood red hair draped over his mint green eyes.
Thick black rings circle them,
making them pop, like yellow in a sea of black.
Sand rushed around, like a whirlwind.
Blood red kanji on his pale forehead. It means
“Love”,
even though his name means
“Love only yourself and fight for only yourself.”
Never would there be
a smile
placed on his pale lips.
He tried hard to make friends,
But everyone was scared.
Was he going to hurt them?
No.
He just wanted someone to love him.
He never really knew what love truly was.
Never actually felt it
He were lied to,
by someone who claimed to love him.
Then he was the monster
that everyone thought he was.
