Waiting For The Moment

[Shikikami]

It came out strong, a raging bull, the brightest star in the sky.
Suddenly fading, becoming nothing more than a taker of space and time.
Waiting there, waiting for his moment to shine, for his moment of glory.
Becoming just another pawn, like everyone else around him.

Hours... Days... Weeks... soon months, then years, still nothing.
Moment after moment, dream after dream, broken and lost, swept away in the current.
Still, he did not waver, he still did wait, forever and ever.

Soon, the sun rose in a crimson red, lighting the scenery with a glow of prosperity.
Finally, the moment had arrived, the moment had been found, he was needed.
Sent out into the world to do as he needed, to fight, to live, to love, to lose.
It didn't matter though, for he had found his place, he had found his reason, he had found his final piece.

Until his death he strived and strived, until finally he could strive no more, then he pushed himself beyond that limit, to truly find what he could do.
Eventually, he gave out, but he had left his mark in the world, for all to remember, for all to fear, for all to love, for all to forget.
