***Author Note: Why was the battle of Mustafar scene from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith the first thing that came to my mind? I don’t know. But when inspiration strikes, you run with it.***

I do not recognise the eyes that look back at me

They are eyes of malice

Eyes of greed

Hungry for power

Hungry for love

These are not the eyes of the boy from Tatooine

I believed in you

Even when others did not

Even when the council said

You should not be trusted

I did

I always did

But the man in front of me now

I do not

A man of absolutes

A man of delusion

A god complex

A man who will stop at nothing

A man who has lost sight of everything

Everything he has ever loved

Was this my fault?

Or was this destiny?

Was it the chancellor?

Or the neglect of the council?

Did we misread the prophecy?

Or is he not the chosen one?

Did the words of the prophecy

Poison his mind?

Is this the monster

the prophecy made?
