HOPE OF MY HEART
~
Hope of my heart, not yet lost
Though born from a twisted soul
Mother blood, shamed to die
In the darkening day
Fate's noose is drawn, blades
Of demons clash the night
Good cast down for sorcery
One of its own betrayed
Great dark claws reach
For any who yet dare
The simplest crime of love
Who dare to remember
Endless night envelops all
But we will not forget
We refuse to forget your blood
Hope of my heart, you live!
ANAKIN'S VOICE
~
Crimson marks the shadow queen
Her face is still and white.
Heavy lies the peerless scent
Of flowers in the night.
Haloed in white moonlight
My angel lies still, her child
Has followed her path.
On rainbowed roads of light.
But the light in my heart is gone now
And the song of her voice
Is fading on my ear.
My soul is barren like the sands
Of the home I left behind.
The winds on the sands echo
In the caverns of my mind.
I can never escape the hate,
That long ago burned my soul.
I have no more reason to live
I have no more reason to fight.
The night is coming
And only a slave boy lives.
ON THIS SIDE OF THE SCREEN
~
I wait in the shadows
I watch the suns
As I wait
Time marches on
I saw him as a child
I saw him as a teen
I saw him as the student
I saw him as the master
Calamity and tragedy
Are but shadows to me
I watch his family
From birth in miracle
To true master
The legacy breeds true
Blazing heat of starfire
And deadly chill of space
Are all the same to one who watches
The tides of space and time.
