This is a poem that i wrote like 2 months ago and didn't know what to make of it. So then i got thinking that maybe this poem will go with my story "Crystal Battle" (which has just been deleted till i rewrite it). Hope you enjoy the poem but before you judge take a look at it as if you were a stranger trying to understand a character's thoughts and reasons behind his/her motives. Waah...sry i wrote/typed more than i thought i did well...just lets move on to the poem shall we. ;)
Forever Bound
The wind is blowing
Gently passing me by
Bringing up my dreams
--
A clear azure sky full of clouds
Drifting ever slowly
With a calm feeling
--
The soft grass below
Inside a circle of trees
A grand green, in wisdom flowing
--
A nearby pond
Quietly bubbling
Like soothing music
--
Patches of great light
Filtering in the clearing
Bringing with a soft warmth
--
While I feel safe and calm
I know that it was all a guise
There is no where else
That I am at peace
Darkness shall come sooner or later
--
As there is light
There are forever dark
Not one without the other
--
The only place I am free is in my dreams
But even there I am in pain
Memories of my past haunt me
Binding me in bloodied chains
--
I long to fly away
Free of duties
And free of battles lost
--
But that is only wistful thinking
For I am bound to this prison
I could leave
But in doing so
I will only bring those I love to harms way
--
If protecting those I hold dear
Means that I must sacrifice myself
Then I will do so gladly
--
For my life and freedom I will fight for
But should I die then know this:
Though my life has been troubled
There are times that I hold dear
--
For as long as there is hate
There will be love
And in the times that we have spent together
You have given me so much love
That I shall never be trapped in hatred
--
But till then I will forever fight
For the peace in this clearing has taught me many things
And as long as I keep those lessons with me
I can not and will not fail
--
My dreams shall give me hope
My mind the will
And my heart the strength I need to stay strong
--
As I come to this conclusion
The wind blows harder
The sky darken and the earth slowly wilts away
The peace has gone and so must I
--
For a new fight has begun
And I must win…
