Character Poems

August 26th, 2008 · 45 Comments

Post Author: Spirit

Im going to attempt to write a few poems about the characters that mean the most to me. This series has shed so much emotion, its time to return the favor. If you enjoy poems as I do, then I hope you like these, if not, sorry this probably isn’t the blog for you.

Naruto:

Solitary since birth, with no one to love.

The villagers shun me, the kids like to shove.

Until that day in the forest, I found I wasn’t alone.

A force lay inside me, I am the home.

With my team right beside me, and sensei in front,

My life is going well, I am happy for once.

Where are you going, stop running away.

You were like a brother to me, I need you Sasuke.

Only one thing in mind, throw away other tasks,

I’ll never surrender, I will bring you back.

Kakashi:

I was a man of rules,

Until that unholy day.

It was I acting like the fool.

Obito showed me the way.

And even though I keep my cool,

My heart is not made of clay.

Emotions surge in the violent pool,

That is Kakashi Hatake…

Shikimaru:

All these duties and tasks are something I dread.

Always asking me to seek a solution from my head.

“Find an answer,” is what she said.

Shut up, I want to sleep; go back to my bed.

But I always cave in to our Hokage of med,

For she is the one that saved my best friend.

So I will continue to tediously shred my head.

Until my disciple is ready to spread.

Sasuke:

All attention in the world, all the skill I’ve attained,

Nothing matters now, my home is no more.

There is only one direction my sights are aimed,

With thunder in my hand, an Uchiha will roar.

I’m still no good, whats happened to me?

Even the one I called friend is matching my skill.

No matter how much it pains me, I must leave this beloved team,

More power is the way that my goal will be fulfilled.

The time has come, I’ll avenge the lost.

Come to me Kirin, vanquish my kin.

Just before he fell, an unusual emotion was tossed.

I thought for once, it was old brother again.

The masked Uchiha has convinced me the truth,

Or at least he thinks.

His true intentions I will uncouth,

Until then I shall continue to sink.

I’m sorry old comrades, I meant you no harm.

Until this is finished I must play the roll.

One day I’ll return with no sword in arm,

After I have repaid for my brother’s lost soul.

Jiraiya:

If they were still around,

Maybe I would stay.

My best friend and my student….

At least the memories never fade.

I have but one more duty,

Please wait for me Tsunade.

This battle is a fierce one,

The destined decision I must make.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to return,

I’m sorry, but it is my time to drift away…

But a new hope brews in Konoha.

Uzumaki will reign one day.

That is it this time guys. I’m not claiming that these are any awesome pieces of work, but writing is something that is fun to me.

    It was an excellent idea for Bob to give you author status. [Regardless of the people who were a bit pissy at that.] Your poems are quite expressive and emotional. They actually center around the character and their greatest issues or life events. And the pictures that you added, ingenious touch. Pictures always help with writing. All I have to say as a veteran author is, well done, Spirit.
    Though I suggest you add your avatar and “Post Author: Spirit” at the very top. :3 So people can appreciate who wrote this.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Bob, where the hell are you, Oh Lazy Oneness? Don’t force me to email you.

    Spirit your poems are great. Very expressive and right to the point. All them tell of the person’s life. You were able to tie all the turmoil with great emotion. I only wish I was half as talented as you when it came to poetry. Good job

    Bob could see the hidden potential in this great author, but can he see why kids like Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

    Haha no but seriously this was probably one of my favorite blogs since I have joined Shannaro! I’m not asking you, I’m telling you, you better make another one!

    The way you captured the emotions of each of these characters, telling not only a story, but incorporating your own theories, and the emotions you pit toward them as well, man you are one hell of a writer.

    There is no question, you are awesome. Keep it up, your bud,

    You got me! Those poems were really good! I’m now officially a Spirit fan.

    Putting the characters’ thoughts into poems is very creative. I was most intrigued by how you depicted Sasuke… hmm… so he’s going down the Itachi path, huh? However, it seems to me that bridges have been burned. If he turns out to be a good guy in the end, I hope it wouldn’t be too late to renew his ties with his former comrades.

    Can you make one for Hinata? Thanks. :)

    it was reeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaali good, u good poet xD
    It was damn good, seriously very good, emotional specially Jiraiya’s one. You should write some based on some other charc, like Itachi, and others ones. But im sure Itachi’s one would make us [the readers] Cry.

    You are very talented poem writer. I really enjoyed.Every poem describe true personality of each character.Good job,Spirit. :)
    “..I’m sorry old comrades, I meant you no harm.
    Until this is finished I must play the roll.
    One day I’ll return with no sword in arm,
    After I have repaid for my brother’s lost soul.”
    I like this part in particular because I still have hope that Sasuke is good guy and that he will eventually come back to Konoha as a true hero.
    P.S.I don’t know for you guys but this blog inspired me to make some poem too! :D

    Spirit you have inspired me to do something I haven’t done in any of my blogs. I’m going to do a sad blog too. (Well, I already had a sad blog in mind, but now I’m going to put more thought into it.) If I don’t make anyone cry, then I didn’t do my job. Even if I have to kill someone, it will be sad danm it. And people WILL cry!!lol.
