[QUOTE="Bhryn Astairre, post: 2562238"] [I]A note stuck onto a thorn, the parchment a pale faded yellow and burnt at the edges. The writing is in simple black ink and the message conveys a sense of the writers... sorrow.[/i] Struck and hewn a cleaving blow To that once fair and bright. A shadow blade. I think you know That it breathes comforting night. Stars of green will spiral in you To guide you down to sleep Eternal. Spare the many for the few In which you find you cannot keep That which made you unique. Humanity is fragile and easily broken By those who hunt and seek For the absolute. A small token; Now I see this in your eyes, Your father's eyes so wide and blue. A worldless sky where dreams can fly; A worldless love turned aside too. Ah but that I had seen it sooner And not made those mistakes, dear. Blade in your heart, mind lunar Eclipsed by those old tears, tears. "Ah yes," you cried softly to me Putting your hand where Ragnarok rested; And smiled. You smiled, it was free. "Now I have an ending," you contested. I watched with fright as you fell, So long in the falling and so quick In the dying. Gone. How can I tell You what I wanted? Words stick In my mind and my throat so dry. The sword sings now with it's twain Close by. I lift it and do not deny What I must once again be, fain. Truth, averro, my daughter fair; For I had never forsaken, only forgotten. Averro, truth, my daughter fair; I will make it right, all that was begotten. Truth. My name rings like a bell in the skies, My heart ablaze with the sorrow in my eyes. ~ Bhryn ~ [/QUOTE]
