Subject: :~( I did say I was a poet...so now, it's confirmed, you know it.

Meh, felt like starting a new conversation on the board, so wah...I wrote poem. Tell me what you think...

A Guardian’s Declaration

In darkened cage, I sit and wait
Locked within mind, lost love and hate.
Ponder this and then ponder that
My wits about me like a cat.
Clouded thoughts and lost memories
Death flows about me as a breeze.

My thoughts go to her, my reason for life,
Protected her even with blood on my knife.
Now I can’t save her that is my fate
I can’t believe it, I was the bait.
It just goes to show how stupid I am
I should never of been her guardian.

I thrash at the bars. Steel and cold
Locked within this metal stronghold.
A flash of light, a yell, and a yelp
They have her now, screaming cries for help.
My head hangs with sorrow, my heart all aflame
It is all my fault, I am to blame.

I think of my defection, my lack of ability
Then my mind clears with such clarity.
This is not over, I cannot quit now,
I wipe the cold sweat away from my brow.
I’ve had it with losing; I have nothing left to give
Except my power, my strength, and my will to live.

I’m giving my all to save her from them
And she will be safe from those I condemn.
For all of my mistakes, my follies, and loose ends
For clumsy feet and stupid thoughts, I will make amends.
Never again will I fall for their trickery
For the good of their kind, I suggest that they flee.

Another scream for mercy from down the dark hall
My body and mind both yearn to beckon its call.
These mere bars can no longer block my path
Nothing will save them from my merciless wrath.
They took from me what I held to most true
My lost, heartfelt feelings beginning to brew.


The control of my anger about to expire
My eyes glow brightly with an unearthly fire.
With one hand I remove a pole from the front.
Another unhinges when I give it a punt.
Within the chamber where she used to be
Now only a body lay before me.

Her agile length lies dead at my feet
Never will I enjoy her company so sweet.
My anger runs rampant, my sorrow burrows deep
My revenge upon her foes is what I shall reap.
With her death I choose to condescend
To a level more fit for their end.

Before I leave this place of destiny,
I make one vow to those who have wronged me.
I will always be her guardian, in death and life,
I will always be here to give you much pain and strife.
Your fate is sealed with our inevitable confrontation
To her, I dedicate this final declaration.
