Monarch

The monarch,

Looks at the land,

His beloved, Underneath,

He sighs, at

the Separation

and Distance between

Them Both.

Her beauty, always,

Seen from a distance,

Never seems to

Deter the monarch.

He wants her,

But the seduction of

Others, make it impossible.

Dark before the Dawn

Every story has an ending,

Every flame must die,

Every king will fall,

Every Legend will end.

My love,

Is the greatest story,

The greatest legend, The wildest flame,

The immortal king,

But it ends,

Now.

Someone once told me,

It is always darkest before dawn,

Well, I said, Now it's day,

I hope night never comes.

But life is like a fleeting shadow,

And everyday has it's night.

Dusk came, my Love blotted

Out by the darkness before dawn.

I thought I would die, Actually,

More than once,

Suffocated by the darkness,

Where were you? I don't know,

But I was left alone.

But now the night has passed,

And I can see the violet in the sky,

Dawn is coming,

And I smile,

My love and pain is over.

I rose up today, early.

I ended the story, the legend,

Snuffed out the flame,

Slain the King,

And walked out a new man.

The wolf was outside,

Waiting for me,

The hawk,

Eyes on me,

The shark,

Ready for me.

I ignored them,

And went away.

Today, as dawn gets,

Clearer,

I thank you, my friend,

For teaching me that

Nothing lasts forever,

Not even love.

New Dawns

Every story must end,

Every love must die,

Even mine, even mine.

I had thought you the one,

I was not right, I was not yet wrong,

You are the one, true,

But not the one for me.

The world is wide, and as such,

There are others.

I thank you, my friend,

For showing me there are others.

I felt numb at first,

But slowly it subsides,

I have more love, and more to love,

So I stood up and went.

Today is a new beginning,

A fresh dawn, A new age.

For today I walk another path,

For today I grown up.

Fate

We are shaped

By Fate,

Just as We

Shape it, But

Fate is fickle

In its choosing,

so In

The end, We

End up nowhere at

All.

Wind

The Voice of

The Wind

Is Silent

Yet Noisy,

Wild

yet Tamed,

weak yet

Strong,

And invisible yet

There, Always.

Her

Her Eyes,

Like Shining

Diamonds,

Stare at me,

Full of

Innocence,

Which I have

Lost.

Her Words,

Like the faintest rain,

Fall on my

Weary mind.

Keeping me safe,

And Comforted from

Hate.

Her smile,

Like the eternal sun,

Shines through

All hatred

and Pain.

I see the smile,

And I know I

Will Be Safe.

Her rejection,

Stings like

A blade,

On My

Heart.

But my Love,

is Always There.

I love you.

The Prisoner

Daylight,

He sits at a desk,

Writing, Answering.

People Call.

He wants to leave,

But can't.

He is bound,

Not in chains, but

Books and Pens.

Knowledge is his lock,

But the key,

Is lost.

He laments,

At his pain,

But No one,

Can free,

The prisoner.

Alpha

The Moon hangs

on the sky,

A white disc,

Against Black.

No stars shine,

The inky darkness too

deep.

A howl rises.

The pack comes

with Alpha

at the lead.

A young wolf

Comes,

Challenging Alpha,

He sneers

and Accepts.

Claws, Fangs, Teeth

In a heap of fur,

They fight.

Others watch

this skirmish.

A howl rises.

It is done.

Alpha recedes,

And a new leader

Is Born

Nightlord

Night has fallen,

He rises from his bed,

Tired, Yawning, Wretched

He walks to the door,

Pausing, taking his blade,

And dressing himself in

Black.

He stalks carefully,

Stealthily he walks,

Soundless, A shadow,

On a roof.

He reaches his destination,

He sees the one,

He raises his blade,

A swish, and it is done.

He returns using a different way,

Using the streets,

He reaches the house,

He creeps into bed,

Leaving the night,

Entering

The Dream
