Friends (TWEWYTOBER Prompt 26)

Summary:

As Joshua looks down on Neku and the others, he feels something he manages to put into words.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

There is an "I" in friends
offered in blue skies
blue eyes
and a smile.

Looking downwards
at them reborn
I yearn
to change
but my angel wings
can't be rid
of their black feathers.

Some may
still be white
but the red
in my eyes
won't let me
see them.

Noise crackles
in my chest
where my heart
used to beat.

I clench
my fist
the Noise
becomes
a tiny violin.

A Composer's
sadness
is a minor note
in Shibuya's symphony.

Notes:

After looking up the post game secret ending when I failed to conquer Pork Tower, I couldn't help but pity Joshua.

I wanted to get inside his head a bit and channel some of the mehness I've been feeling into a poem.
