Undertale Poems

Heartache

"My child, you are breaking my heart."

I cared for them.
Saved them.
How do they thank me?
By trying to escape.
The world is not safe.
Asgore will show no mercy.
Not even to the innocent.
But this child...
They cannot have good intentions.
If they can't leave...
They can't hurt others.
They can't be hurt by others.
I am doing what is right.
But it feels so wrong.

The child is on the brim of dying.
But I cannot kill them.
They continue to attack me.
But I can't bring myself to hurt them.
Not in the condition they're in.
But they'll hurt.
No mercy.

I take a final blow to the chest.
I can feel myself bleeding.
The pain is unbearable.
Yet I know it will be over soon.
I mutter out those final words.
I am ashamed.
I cannot protect a mere child.
Now it has come to this.
