Assassin

Blood trickles from my blade,

I need to kill or be left here to die.

Into the shadows, I fade,

I kill silently, no one can hear my victims cry.

 

I cut myself off from everyone,

No one knows my real name.

I come out in the dark and hide from the sun,

I have no need for such a burden as fame.

 

I have my own reasons to slaughter,

You can’t bribe me with gold.

I have nothing, even my mother and father,

I was released from their loving hold.

 

Am I evil, how would you know?

Well, I’d say... I don’t think so.
