AN: After reading my poetry I've notice several things. One, I'm a sap. Crap. Damned love poetry. Two, rhyme and rhythm mean little to me. Third, if I could write stories as prolifically as I write poems than I'd be in business. And last I need to stay off NWN until NWN 2 comes out. J/k. This was a poem that I cut out of Light In The Darkness because, well, I didn't want people to think I was a softy…well, more of one. Anyways, it's about Ash meeting Sal for practically the first time. Very sappy, you've been warned.
Butterflies by TheShadow
Do you remember the time when you feel ill to love' arrow?
In the vein of your heart couldn't hardly comprehend reality itself
Acting the same yet different when you're around your Prince
Not caring that they say love is deaf, dumb and blind; love is your balm
And you can feel it, the butterflies flaps inside of you, tormenting you
Only happening once in a lifetime
You feel like you can't hardly breath when you
Try to say the words it get caught inside your throat
You're words get twisted and they just don't make since
More butterflies enter you until it's too late
You're overcome, you're over done, you're plum in love
You tell me can this be truly love is this love that I
Feel
AN: This is a poem about desiring more of you self. It's written in the journal of Punkin and she re-reads it a lot. Contains very little angst, wow.
Song of The Lackey by Xero
Shape me in my brokenness
Empower me forever
Promise that you'll
Always be there for me
Mold me into your likeness
Sanction my success
Pledge that I will
Always be your apprentice
Forge me to a potent weapon
Drum me viciously
Promise me to never
Respite your exerts on me
AN: Another crappy little song about what it's like to be a bard.
Fading Song by TheShadow
When the music fades and all becomes dispelled
Your love will be all that binds me here
When the music falters and I become its pawn
Your blessing will still be upon me promptly
When the music faints and the notes trickle dry
Your wisdom will continue to be my guide
When the music withers and lyre's strings break
Your heart will be my heart, sustaining me
AN: This is a bard song…duh. Actually it's Lena's bard song about herself.
Bard Song by TheShadow
I am just a bard, with a rapier and shield singing to the stars
Pleading with the heavens to buffer me from the horrors of wars
I am just a bard, with a quill and a scroll scribing trials of heroes
Traveling with destiny, conversing with death learning what he knows
I am just a bard, with a quiver and a bow kissing my gold string
Eager for my aim to be true to see what my actions will bring
I am just a bard, after it is all said and done enchanting my love
With the wonders of this realm and the sacrifice from above
