“One Life, One Blade”


One by one, they are picked off,
Darkness blinds them as fear binds them
Standing in the long line a little girl cries
With each swipe of the blade a silent thud is heard
The little girl is next, she turns ash white
A light reflects off the blade, she holds her breath
She feels it ripping through her body
Her hands turn cold, her eyes grow dull
Her last breath escapes,
Her body falls, and is drug to a pile
Later is burned, to remove any trace
That this little girl had once lived.

Ashes turn, graves roll, a criminal pays the toll,
The executioner's dull blade is what made a curdling echo to cause the ghost's rejoice.....
and so her voice was heard without ever being understood,
Her life of incomplete was finally put to rest by her killer's defeat,
Finally the ghost could make her way to her other-worldly post....
and let it be known, that this world may have its host of issues, but there will always be those to renew the cycle of evil and good.
I bid thee farewell, may your lively hood provide and your end be short and sweet.

The Storms Song

Soft voices chant in the night,
Their eerie song is heard with fright.

When they sing, the trees wavier,
Fields of grass and flowers are dancing with favor.

Little ones shake and shiver,
As the trees quake and quiver.

Yellow and orange leaves together dance,
The sound of a falling branch disrupts their trance.

The interruption from lights destruction,
Is followed by a laughing eruption.

Petrified, they try to hide,
Still the haunting voices are where they abide.

This is the song of the wild,
Here to bring fear to every child.

By, Roan

Equality

People are like fire and ice, where one lives the other dies
Unless they join forces together, with one there is strength,
But with two the power is far greater then one man will see
in his life time. Fire will bring wrath and warmth. Ice cools
stuff down, and sets a chilly tone. If fire gets to hot ice will
cool it off. If ice gets to cold, fire will warm it up

I stand amoung you, you say I have a home. You call me friend and say you'll never roam.
But the newness wears away, and comes a change in tone.
And then as always...., I will stand alone.

Good bye.

Not a Hero
I went over the edge, I lost my faith
I have made a bad choice, My choice of no light
Darkness has overcome me, Now I await death
I gave in- I was at my weakest point,
Now I am darkness, though not evil as I thought I would be
The choice I made has destroyed me and no one but me can be blamed.

I will be known as the rebel, for I will fight
There is still one chance for me
I was blinded, and lost my sight
How could I not see?
But I have regained it, though it bites
This one chance may kill me
There is no one who will for me fight
Not anymore, Ive pushed them from me

The choices I made has destroyed me and no one but me can be blamed.
I feel too weak to fight, but maybe thats what darkness feels like
It shows the monster in me- so stay away
I must overcome the dark- I must be the rebel
This is the path I was to take...
Now everthing is so clear, when before I was blinded
I must change, I will fight
I know what I am, what I have always been.
You want the secret? too bad its my secret.
I am the monster but I am also the hero.

I will be known as the rebel, for I will change
There is this one chance for me
I was blinded, and was caged
why couldn't I see?
But I am now stronger and better, though it bites
This one chance is the key
There is no one else who can help me change
Not anymore, Ive pushed them from me

The monster is satisfied, the hero is in pain.
They both live inside of me, and I will use both
I have a new purpose now in my life and that is to change
That is to fight for balance for within me and within this world and universe.
I have choosen light, I tried to be nuetral, I then chose darkness.
I can see through the light, I can see through the dark,
Now I just need to change again.

I will be known as the rebel, for I will fight

I was blinded, and lost my sight
How could I not see?
But I have regained it, though it bites
This one chance may kill me
There is no one who will for me fight
Not anymore, Ive pushed them from me

I refuse to hate the sun, but darkness doesnt frighten me anymore
I refuse to hate water, but fire feels so good
I love the earth, I love the night
Winter is not so bad, I refuse to hate summer
I refuse darkness, I refuse light, for I love both
So I need to change, even if it means the death of me.
This is my path; it may be my final path
But I finally feel the smile of a challenge on my face.

I will be known as the rebel, for I will change
There is this one chance for me
I was blinded, and was caged
why couldn't I see?
But I am now stronger and better, though it bites
This one chance is the key
There is no one else who can help me change
Not anymore, Ive pushed them from me
Im not a hero, Im not a monster, Im both

Sounds like you already died, Les.

Night of the Banshee.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
‘Twas only past midnight when we heard that wretched yell
Her cries rung throughout the town like an old broken bell
She was signaling the departure of our dear friend
Echoing the moment, with her song to no end
The creature stood before us, with a face that looked stirred
She floated just above the ground, where the grass had died below her
She was draped in tethered garments, with hair a knotted mess
And had bloodstains at her hands and heels, and a locket at her breast
With eyes as dark and red as a rose bud or blood
And skin as pale and blue, like she had died in a flood
Her song was as sorrowful, as it was queer and loud
For three good hours did she sing it clear and proud
Until my friend who lied there on his dying bed
Was spirited away by a light, and not a word more was said
We looked out behind us as the Fae One fell silent
She turned on her heels, and walked away from the islands
But on this day and onwards, by my very life I shall swear
That I’ll never forget the look on her face
And the tears in her stare.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Just something I wrote a little while ago. Tell me what you think.

Also, I LOVE poetry! :3

My Angel.
------------------------------------------------
Oh, night shrouded angel
Cloaked in garb of black
With bones so fair and gaunt
And wings that glow dark atop your back
You are the Shepard with the bladed crook
Herding your sheep with its fine hook
And guiding them beyond the veil
To their resting place
Be it heaven or hell

Oh, hallowed skeleton with eyes so stark
You who embrace us in the light
And hold our hands in the dark
With a smile that bides and shines through the lies
You are he who holds the strings that binds us to our ties

Oh, lovely Reaper
So still and pale
With hands so cold
And body so frail
You are the elder that turns the wheel of time
And holds the caduceus, forever entwined

You are my angel sent to me

That fills me with vigor, joy, and glee

Holding my hand and standing by

Readying my soul

For its final goodbye.
--------------------------------------------

One of my favorites written by yours truly. :3

Your poem was great, albeit, not really my cup of tea. Hell, I'm sure that I'm an amateur compared to you. :)

haunted

peace, love and life are the gifts I do not bring,
for what I brought is a sharp and sliver blade,
along with a frightful night full of pain,
sit next to me, and you will no longer be sane,
for your soul is mine, it is the thread that is weaved into my cloak,
you can run, but I will never be far behind you,
I am your shadow, I am in every darkness, I am inside you.
