I Am Merlin

Merlin's POV. Please review if you like it.

-I am Prince Arthur's manservant.

I wonder what my life would be like if I had never come to Camelot.

I hear the Prince's orders, his insults, and his threats of the stocks.

I see two sides of the same coin, my best friend and I.

-I am Gaius's assistant.

I pretend that I don't hear him trying to rouse me so I can sleep 5 more minutes.

I feel the hard stiffness that is my bed.

I touch the rows of dusty potion bottles.

I worry about the man who has become like my father.

I cry because I know he will never truly understand.

-I am a secret sorcerer.

I understand I could be sentenced to death at any time, that I'm lucky to be alive.

I say the secret language and it makes me feel alive.

I dream that one day I can truly be myself.

I try to tell Arthur who I am, what we are destined to be.

I hope someday he will understand. That they all will.

-I am Merlin.
