Wow. This is lame.-.-() I'm not a poet, by any means. I'm an avid reader, not a writer. But once I have something in my head, Isimply must get it out. Anyway, this is just some dribble from Raistlin's pointofview.. just after the Test at Wayreth.x.x I worked a lot of sibilance into this.. that's the only thing about it that made me semi-happy. But in all honesty, it's crap. Try to enjoy.

--Wicked Seraphina

Resolute

A trial, my life, of passion and pain,

Sparse glimpses of sunlight and ages of rain.

I had thought, with time, the dark would disperse,

But nearly recoiled when I discovered it worse.

However,

I shall endure the whispers, the rumors, the stares,

And these spiders weaving webs in my breast.

I'll ignore their doubting, their pity, their glares--

Wayreth was not the end of my test..

A curse on me for my consuming desire?

A curse on me for my resolution?

A curse on my sight for this unquenchable fire!

A curse on my flesh for my soul's polution!

...but then,

"A blow of the hammer," I once was told,

And every harsh strike draws me nearer.

I know that the sorcery is well worth the gold

And the death that I view in the mirror.

Though wicked my face through magic was wrought,

My vision made sordid and bleak,

Power is what I have so long sought,

And is what still, now, I seek.
