Work Text:
He was strong in the Force (he was weak to the dark side to the madness-). He was the most powerful Sith Lord the galaxy has ever seen, seconded only by His Master (he was the weakest, nothing without-). His personal troops were the most feared in the galaxy (he remembered a time when people looked upon his men as saviors when he was a hero beloved-).
He was Darth Vader, loyal Apprentice to the Emperor, Lord of the galaxy, Sith (he was a slave still afraid forgottenhelpmemaster-).
He was powerful. (he was weak)
He was not afraid. (he was terrified)
He did not need anyone. (someoneanyonesavemeplease)
He was alone. (he was never alone His Master was always there watching burning-)
He needed nothing (he wanted) from anyone (someone cannot speak the names).
Anakin Skywalker was dead (never dead just forgotten marching far away). Anakin Skywalker was weak (he was weak because all the right reasons).
Vader enjoyed the fear and the death (gods what is happening no nononono-). He enjoyed the flinches and terrified watchful eyes (gold eyes in the same faces they shouldn’t be afraidnotlikethis). Vader was free from those who would limit him (he was a dog on a leash). Vader did not need anything from his past (but that won’t stop the memories).
(Anakin Skywalker is dead.) He didn’t want to be alive.
(why won’t anyone save me?)
