Heartless


My friend - I move to speak,
For in you I shall confide,
Of an emptiness bore deep inside,
Shadows - where I hide.

How long has it been thus,
Since I was hence torn apart?
A being void in nothingness,
Lacking feeling of a heart.

Remnants of a shadowed past,
Have drifted beyond the seal.
Yet forever locked away are those,
Memories of how to feel.

Oh' how frail is the heart,
To collapse in the conquering fist!
Submit! unto that which bore you,
Darkness of the endless abyss.

And what remains born of this,
When darkness takes back the heart?
Only the nothing left behind,
Existing where nobody aught.

This nonexistence lay not within,
Supreme darkness - nor in the light,
But in the ever void - where lies,
A want for hearts taken flight.

The keepers of the want are naught,
The nonexistent ones.
Taking heartless - watching heartfelt won,
Keeping all - yet feeling none.

Deep within the realm of twilight,
Shadows of nobody - can you see?
In a world that never was,
Only wishing that they could be.

Just in time for Valentine's Day/night. My kind of valentine....one of a darker nature.

Kingdom Hearts
Xehanort - Heart = Ansem / Xemnas

From the realm of Kingdom Hearts...from the point of views of Ansem and Xemnas...fazing in and out of each other. Sometimes together as Xehanort...sometimes seperate or more pronounced, yet constant in thought pattern.
You can also note that it has the effect of starting with Xehanort, becoming Ansem and then taken over by Xemnas...who finishes it off.
Yet...through he who never was and he who never will be, remains still the presence of he who once was whole.

This poem was greatly inspired by :icon8-13:'s drawing above "Never Was + Never Will Be"
Please do check it out and make it one of your favorites here [link] ...as well as many other
great works of theirs.

(c)Permission has been given to feature their artwork thus and permission has also been given to them to feature my poem with their artwork, as well.

Thank you very much. :heart:

*nods* Yes...it is more my style to create images and emotion through words. The more real it is the better.

Indeed....nor I normally...however,as you know, Xemnas has grown to like it for *sneer* obvious reasons.

Thank you...I was hoping you would like it. Took me a good part of yesterday to create it. I do believe I am satisfied with it now.

Very nice, Erilis. I admire your way with words very much, and your deepness of thought in your writing. This is indeed...most beautiful. :blackrose:

I really like this. It captures the descent into darkness very well. I like how it shows the two sides of it and how though they thought they could control the darkness it eventually split them. :+fav:

Thank you very much. I was hoping to catch that effect...and how a being lacking feelings of a heart, yet still possessing a soul, is to view his sad state of existance.
