Immortality

He took a step onwards,
For some reasons, his destination become further with every steps,
He ran,
He ran,
And falls behind.

His hands tried to grasp the memories,
Yet he just couldn't reach,
He tried to screamed,
Wished to be heard.

Like always,
Nobody come for him.

He should just remembers
They all are dead,
Except for him,
Why?
Of course, because he is the immortal.

And others just mere humans.

-

He tried to kills himself,
The attemps were more than hundreds,
He failed,
And failed,
Again.

Many ways he had tried,
Drowning,
Taking pills,
Shot himself,
But nothing ever suceed.

Years later,
A man with iron hat came to him,
Offering an invitation to The Strongest Seven,
No matter how he tried to reject,
The man would still come for him.

He gave up rejecting,
And decided to accept it.

-

When he was going,
He didn't expect it was related to the mafia,
And the strongest, too.

They introduced theirselves,
With the voice full of pride,
And when it was his turn,
He just smiled in silence.

His status was unknown so they decide,
He was nothing but a naive civilian,
And so they said.

He'd never corrected it,
Because they didn't need to know,
Because it's never an important matter,
And he knew.

They are the strongest people,
With the biggest pride,
What's the point of telling,
If nobody's willing to listen?

So he kept it quiet,
Till someone tried to break his silent shell.

-

It began as the usual day,
Acting like the fool,
He himself would admit,
The acts were not to be doubted,
He was the greatest actor,
They didn't need to know.

The older Sky was dead,
Another tried to replace,
Time passed,
And replaced with a younger one,
She's so young and pure,
And his Sky's innocence was tainted.

She asked him,
With the usual curious gleaming eyes,
He chuckled and ruffled her hairs,
And that's how a question was simply forgotten.

The Sun was fully awared,
He was completely taken back by the act the Cloud acted out,
He was called as The Greatest Hitman for reasons,
And he won't let himself be careless,
Even with the Lackey.

The Sun craved to know more,
He used many methods to know,
And he kept failing more,
So he kept searching for now.

The Mist too,
Was a curious fellow,
They were quite the fool,
To quickly trust The Cloud's act,
Without any doubts,
They live the lie,
Saying that he's civilian.

The Lightning didn't realised anything,
He lives in his world,
He don't care about the Cloud,
Who's breaking right in front of his eyes.

The Rain was careless.

The Storm knew it all along,
It was a secret,
That he was also in the same problems with the Cloud,
Immortality be damned,
He wanted to die with fellow comrades,
So he kept on trying to break the curse,
And suceed.

-

Death was his top priority,
Certainly because it's the hardest,
To solve,
To find an answer,
For the end of it.

The Rainbow become quite close with him,
Yeah,
He's still the Lackey,
That they didn't expect anything,
But,
He can smell awareness around him.

The Storm would always gave him a knowing smile,
And that pissed him off,
As like-
There's something hidden,
And he himself was a curious fellow.

At last, no answers were given.

The ending is half-assed, I would agreed if somebody actually said this blatant fact.
