Yami no Gemu

Yami no Gemu

A Poem by Egao-onna

I stroll down the accursed place

That I must stay in

Swathed in the shade

Everything's just a little bit darker 

 

Flipping the combination lock 

Planning

Wishing for escape 

 

Those who wish me ill will

Frequently abound here

 

How I long to tear their eyes out 

So they cannot see my faults

How I long to stitch their mouths shut 

So they cannot slander me with my wrongdoings 

 

I sit down in the accursed place

That I must stay in

Cloaked in darkness

Everything's just a bit more lucid

 

Days pass

Each a monochrome of droll activity 

The torment ceaselesly continues

Until I reach my breaking point 

 

My fingers scrabble about 

My eyes roll about in my head

A grin appears

A smile, ear-to-ear 

 

I stand over them, 

They who have hurt me

It's my turn to hurt them now 

 

It is I who play the Darkness Game 

 

My eyes shadowed by falling hair

I tear them apart through my tears

As they scream for mercy 

I finally have my victory 

As they are contorted, 

Arms bent vertically midway from the elbow

Knees bent in the other direction

I press on, not content until their demise

Laughing all the while 

 

Covered in blood, 

Splattered in gore,

Everything's just a little bit darker 

 

The deed is done 

Justice has been delt 

 

I sit down in the accursed place

That I must stay in

Everything's just a little bit darker 

The walls painted red

The carpet littered with human remains 

 

I'm finally free from those who oppress me 

I have taken from them that which they cherish most 

Their death was not horrible 

Their life was horrible 

 

Is is I who play the Darkness Game
