Vergil Sparda

Power,
knowledge,
Mother’s amulet,
and Yamamoto.

Trinkets gifted to me from birth.
Assets that will help me ascend.
Assisting in my quest to become a full devil,
destroying the wretched humanity within me.

Dante sees me as nothing more
than a heartless devil who must be saved.
Lacking sympathy for my noble quest,
seeking power for his protection.

Despite killing him while blinded by my rage
igniting the devil within him,
fearing that I killed
my last remaining blood relative.

I will not allow him to be a maunder
for my selfish cause.
Mother’s death rigorously  
haunts my weary mind.
Father’s desertion to family ties
brings his cowardice to the light.
Abandoning treasured loved ones
in their hour of crisis

Dante wears his sentiments on his sleeve.
Acting out childish whims and immatures.
Failing to acknowledge that
emotions is another form of weaknesses?

It's better to keep insecurities hidden
Not giving your adversaries the opportunity
to see your hand, as love ones
are nothing more than liabilities.

Yet, I continue to care for that baboon I call a brother.
Guaranteeing he stays alive despite his hero complex.
Hopeful that his scars are invisible,
his payment for saving the human parasites.
