by Sasami

You hate to see me cry,
To watch tears roll down my
Cheeks. You want me to be
Happy, but, honestly,
Do I deserve it? No,
I don't deserve to be
Happy or cheeful, not
With the blood on my hands,
Not with what I have done.
No, I should not even
Try to be happy, for
All I deserve to have
Is the pain of sorrow.
And yet you brush a tear
Away with your hand. Why?
