Ashita Ga Mienakute Mo
[101] Thanatos
Inspired by this song. Which will have to be posted later cause my Internet is being dumb. All fixed now.
Hot nights
Heat waves
A songbird cries its melody
Even as the night grows dark
Otherworldy spirits walk the roads
The animals fear them not
The owl hoots
Takes to flight
At the head of the column
The Dark God walks
Guiding his way
The owl leads
Soon they reach
Their destination unaccosted.
Within, a family slumbers
Without, a gang of thieves watches
The Dark God stands by
As the gang attacks
Haunting, his maidens sing
They cover the screams within
A child runs outside
She stops in front of them
Accusing, she points
At him
He smiles
Her death certain.
