Things Vash may have pondered, at least part of the time, during all the many years he wandered alone.



Pondering Destiny

I roam long hours through trackless wastes
My name is known, but not my face
Alone upon the desert sands
The barren dunes of No Man's Land

Wand'rer, drifter, forgotten soul
Now we're apart, can I be whole?
I hear your words, and through my tears
I've watched this world a hundred years

Dear Rem, he stole your life from you
That hour my heart with tears imbued
I try to live to make you proud
...will this red coat become my shroud?

Each life precious, equally dear
Your life for theirs was traded here
I'll save as many as I can
Upon this desolate dry land

I must go face him yet again
Knives who's slain so many men
None else can stop him, so I must
Prevent his schemes at any cost

I know not when or where I'll find
That one who's purged love from his mind
With all my weakness, can I be
The one who sets this planet free?

These foolish normal humans here
Know not from Knives they've much to fear
I love them as you'd wish, Dear Rem
Like you, I'd give my life for them



I do not own Trigun / Vash: he belongs to the amazing Mr. Yasuhiro Nightow.
"Vash the Stampede" character belongs to the amazingly talented Mr. Yasuhiro Nightow.

In the Trigun manga and anime, Vash spends several decades -- almost a century -- wandering the desert alone. This poem contains some of the things that I imagine he might have pondered, during those times of wandering.

All of my Trigun poetry can be found in my gallery's "Trigun Fanfiction Poetry" folder, if anyone is interested in reading more of these poems. :)


If anyone's curious, my other Trigun Fanfiction (most isn't re-posted at DA) can be found through my profile at fanfiction.net. :)
