Sorry I haven't uploaded any poems in a long time. I actually have several written. I just have to find the time to upload these files. Here is Althena's poem.
ALTHENA
Why had I not seen this before,
Why this lance only I bore?
The lance only held by those of your kin
My lost father, whom I have never seen
Please atone me for my foolishness
In believing that man doubtless
How could I have known
You to death's helm he had thrown?
He pretended to be you,
And how could I doubt it true?
My dear mother please do too,
Forgive the daughter who missed you
Little did I know of your sacrifice,
To save a life paying life's price.
Amidst those yellow dunes,
Your life taken by dragoons.
Now I shall walk alone
Till my oblivion you both to atone
I shall make your names known
and finally take them as my own.
But one day I have ask you,
To accept him as I do,
The son of the him who took me in,
For I do love him.
