Kira

A high school boy, Light Yagami from the anime Death Note, holds a black notebook in a dark alleyway.

I find this world not one that satisfies

It can transport me to my dreams for a moment, but a moment only

I want to live in my dreams, not merely spectate them happen to someone else

They say I can’t get there without hard work, without standing out from the crowd

In a way, they’re right

I am one in billions, just another number, another face, another sound

Sometimes, I’m not even that

If people saw what I was thinking, the ideas and genius concepts that flow through my head, I would be recognized, appreciated, respected

I would be allowed to trample and harp on others, just as they have done to me

They may not know they have done so, but their presence is all the hurt that it takes to reach me

They need to go, and I need to rise

There is only one way to get rid of the horrid rust in this world, we all know that

It’s only the way we go about doing the deed that makes it stand out

I will make the means to cleanse this world of the people who don’t deserve to be here

The best part is, I’ve found a way

Have you ever heard the expression that words are powerful?

That holds more meaning than you might think, and is especially true of names

Why am I doing this?

I was bored

That’s all

I will become the god of this new world

I am justice!
