Pierce

Silvery,suspended
Filled with Dark Rage
Rolling,Fighting
Booming and Shouting

Crash and Slash
Bright Swords lock
Against the Veil
Thrusting and Slashing

Raging and Powerful
Omnipotent Terror
All shall Cower
and Hail in Despair

Mortals Run,Hide
Mighty Trees Burn
With Evangelical Fire
Roaring and Crackling

Tears crash against soft Earth
Drop by drop
by Torrent and by Gale
Washing,Cleansing.

But after every battle
After every fight
Light shall come
Piercing

Straight and True

As She Passes Me By

I was sad and alone.
Truly alone
When she found me.

She had no reason to help
To pull me
But she saved me.

We were together when it mattered
Together when we were alone
She cared for me

We were together in sickness
Through writhing pain
She healed me

I loved her for her smile
Her kindness
and for Her

But when it mattered most
When she needed to know
I couldnt tell her

When she couldnt see
How it felt inside of me
I couldnt show her

When she needed to know
Now most of all
I couldnt hear her.

Now someone else tells her
What she deserves to hear

Now someone else makes her
Feel truly special

Now,when shes gone
I can tell her

Now that she'll never know

That I could never be the one for her
But she'll always be the one for me.

The Execution

He opened his cupboard and withdrew the bundle.

As he parted the cloth,he thought of all the killing he had done.

He had no regrets.

The blade was clean. It had been washed carefully by him after every time. Dried blood would mean a dull edge.

A dull edge just causes an unnecessary amount of pain.Get it over quick and smooth.

He sat on his porch and slid the whetstone over the blade.

Quick and methodical.

As muscle memory took over,he let his thoughts wander. The dark green hills,rolling under a perennial stormy sky. The gods had cursed the land to darkness.

Smoke started to spiral out of the chimney behind him,light at first, but soon it was thick enough to join the storm clouds in the sky.

It was almost time.

He went to the back of his stead,where she was waiting.She was having a drink of water.

She seemed calm,almost accepting of her destiny.

She didnt see him coming until it was too late.

He pulled her head back placed the silver blade under her neck,and in one flick,it was done.

A flash of the light catching the blade,a spurt of blood so bright red,it was almost pink and a squawk.

It was done.

Winner,winner
Chicken Dinner.

Stranger

Awkward silence,idle pause
Where once was fire
Only ember remains
Yesterday fall into memories

We strive to find a binding cause
Were we not naive
Once when we saw life together
Everything fades and disappears

To and fro,unpleasant pleasantries.
Each with a fixed smile
Other words come to mind
Why do I suffer your choices

Are you happy now,like
We we were once
Now that I have
Nothing.

Re-

I just spent two minutes punching my pillow into submission.

As i walked around, the deafening ringing in my ears continued.

I came to a stop and laid my forehead against the cool wall.

Tears?

No, she wont get that from me.

I have lost everything..this moment is hers.

She will not get that from me.

I bite down, dig deep and keep moving.

I have never felt mental deterioration like this.

The pain is in the mind,manifesting itself in physical nausea.

I dry-heave a few time,but swallow the bile.

An old friend...

The light disappears,it sinks beyond the horizon.

The Night is here again.

I am Home.

I am Darkness.

Fear.

Rage.

Solitude.

I remember now...

Bane.

I remember now.
