My first poem for a video game and Shadow of the Colossus deserves it! I haven't written a poem in ages, so I think this is pretty good considering I wrote it in my obnoxious Math class. I hope no one minds the indirectness of it.


"Which the Eagle Cannot Fly"

That over which the eagle cannot fly

Climb to the sky O majestic one

The heavens above calls your name

A name that wind does not hold

Forgotten to time, forgotten to memory

Shine your light and soar

Blood turned black

An ancient flow of life

Moving that which does not move

A stone turned enemy...

Light burns within...

Shadows engulf the souls of the living

Feeding not on death, but life

The will to live, the will to destroy

Into the white abyss

Dive into the depths

That under which the eagle cannot fly
