《Aeternum: A Collection of Poems》Letter Amidst The War
Advertisement
I almost got hit by a bullet, my dear
I can't believe I almost died
It was a really close call; too close
That I want it to be
Good thing I was able,
To duck behind cover swiftly
You can thank God for giving me fast reflexes
Anyways the shots came from hidden enemy soldiers
That was setting up an ambush for us
Good thing our scouts already informed us about this
So our platoon was ready
That's why we were able to
Quickly dispatch them all
Still, the experience almost got me killed
And if I die, then
I wouldn't be able to fulfill my promise
To safely come back home
To you and our kids
And you know that incident got me thinking
That when I die someday
You and our beloved family
Would be a part of my last thoughts
My last memories before I leave
This good earth behind
Regardless I also realized
How awful wars are
I mean, those poor soldiers we killed
We're just soldiers
Fighting for what they believe was right
And like my comrades and me
They, too, have people, loved ones rather
Who they left behind
Sadly luck was not on their side
I pray that this would soon end
So I can come back to you
And see the kids personally
Not just in the pictures,
You send me my dearest
Which I receive, by the way, mind thee
Anyhow, send my regards to them, would you?
Tell them that papa always loves them
No matter what, no matter the circumstance
Again I'm sorry if I may not be there
When you go into labor, for our second child
For our precious daughter
As I said, this war is not ending soon
But know that I'm there
Not physically but spiritually
And in these challenging times
You and our family
Are the ones giving me strength
Giving me inspiration
To continue living and fighting each day
For your safety, my dears
And I know it's hard, mi Amor
To be apart from each other
But do remember what I said in our vows
That I will always love thee
"Wherever" I may be

Inglorious Bastard
My life is in no way unbearable or hard, I fully recognize that it could always get much worse in a multitude of ways. Be happy with what you have and all that. But the future looks bleak and boring no matter how I look at it. Spend 40~50 years trying to educate the bossy rich kids of Pinecove private school and retire having wasted my life or throw everything away in hopes of a more fulfilling job, risking to go under? This world has no place left for excitement and adventure - everything there is to explore and discover was found a long time ago; everything that can be created is here already in one way or another; because of laws, borders, inflation and back-breaking taxes an average Joe just can't do anything too crazy or too ambitious, lest they decide living in prison or being penniless is a great way to lead your life. If only it was possible to be released from all constraints and start anew in some other place, in a different time. Drop the masks and live a life with no regrets. Impossible and childish wish, I know. But a man can dream...

Heroine? Yeah, no.
ISEKAI TITLE - It seems I've been reincarnated as a heroine in another world. Yeah, how about no? IMPORTANT NOTES - While the story is not allergic to wholesome moments, I would like you to understand that this is the story of a villain, not an anti-hero protagonist. Depression, psychopathy, dark themes, uncensored violence, horriffic suggestive themes; these are all a mainstay of the series. I would strongly advise anyone who wants to experience "Dr. Feelgood" to go look elsewhere. Summary - Kamiyama Nori is many things; a bully, a delinquent, gamer and fanatic of all things martial. What she is not however, is anyone's 'hero', and she will do everything she can to rid herself of that title, even if it means the deaths of many, many other people. Her jaded, manipulative and opportunistic nature, combined with a 'noble', divine birthright is bound to quake the hearts of any whom would dare to stand in her way, good and evil alike.
