Chapter 8.0 : Horns of War ...

As I knelt before the Light in our dim-lit alter,
I made a silent prayer to the one whom we call father.
To give me strength to leave my love to fight what ever that befalls us,
to protect those whom we cherish and keep them safe we must.

I adjusted my hands back into Faith as I rose to my feet.
Adjusting my light robes as it glittered in the waning light .
Flinging my cape back with home embroidered gloriously in pure white.
Bending over to return Hope from the ice cold floor from where it laid.

A kindred soul passed it to me,
with a smile that lifts all forms of misery.
As my vision extended to the foreground,
I realized that I have found my reason.

A lover that understands me thoroughly,
and took my heart to eternity.
I have found a meaning for this reason,
to stand and fight off this senseless treason.

Slamming on my knees to catch a hug,
I caught a young life so delicate to touch.
He held me tight with his weaking arms,
trembling furiously as those crystal tears rolled past those tender cheeks.
I held his innocent face in between my hands,
and looked right into a heart of a man.
A promise, a smile, a kiss we shared,
as he slowly understood where we stand.

Embracing a hold that we deeply desired,
I rose to hold on to the love that we both inspired.
I held on to her heart, her love, her soul,
as we embraced each other with a firm hold.
We looked deep into each others eyes for a moment,
and realized that reality is something that cannot be avoided.
I took in her scent, her touch and her love for one last time,
holding on to whatever that's left and kept in deep into my mind.

Taking one last look at the ones that I hold dear,
settling down my heart as it drew tears.
A silent promise to make it back here,
to abolish and hold the ones away from fear.
Brushing the dark brown door open as the Horns of war sounded,
echoing through the hollow alleys of the City.
With a deep breathe I turned back with my warmest smile,
and left for war to face the endless vile.

Chapter 2.11 : Stupid ...

My mind's clouded with so much thoughts that it is overwhelming.
The constant barking of the people around me is just plain irritating.
Standing here at this very moment makes me feel right below.
But there is no way I can find to ripe off what I have sowed.

Just standing here makes me feel stupid while I waste my already short time limit.
They're presence slowly but surely unwinds my tightly sealed knowledge vault.
A cloud of tiredness hover all day around my weary mind.
But it is at this very moment that I notice that I might have become one of them.

I am always looking forward to the end of the day.
Looking forward to the end of this misery business and delay.
Dreaming for that hopeful day that I would awake from this dreadful nightmare.
Yearning for the moment to recover my sense from this foul dense air.

Chapter 6.32 : Forgo ...

The sky darkens as the hungry clouds swallow the glittering stars.
The fallen autumn leaves scatter like fireflies dancing through the night sky.
The scent of death linger in the ice cold wind that pierce through my body.
The Earth grumbles inconsistently as it tears its self apart.

The tears fall heavily from the concealed black sky.
Heaven's wrath roared through the sky as it illuminates how belittle we beings are.
A freezing thick fog encased the land into a blur.
Shadow s slipping from one corner to another with a hidden agenda.

Cleansed by the sea of tears,
noise being shut out, 
thoughts being blocked from the curious,
feelings being concealed from the unwelcomed.

It is at this state that one must learn,
to adapt and resist what one truly yearns.
Holding on to something and not letting go,
is something that we must eventually forgo.

Chapter 2.10 : How did we get here ...

Within this hour that we have been here,
I can see the future that is hard to peer.
An image so deep that it sears,
one could only look hopelessly in fear.

How did we get here?

This situation that we have now,
is something that is holding me down.
How I wish that I could shake this off,
but I have no power left to resist this wrath.

How did we get here?

There is no one here that I can trust,
for there is no bonds that can ever last.
There is no one that I dare rely on,
for they are merely ready to pawn.

How did we get here?

The air is very cold despite our usual runs,
there is no warmth left in the Sun.
The atmosphere is dry and suffocating,
though I wished it was always raining.

How did we get here?

Moves and skills that moves in the shadows,
blinding all those that follows.
Various banners that hang in the heavy winds,
following the echoing of the furious war drum beats.

How did we get here?

Senseless influence ordered by the imperial,
treating us like toys from a breakfast cereal.
Weak in knowledge and professionalism,
demanding respect that one does not deserve.

How did we get here?

How can the world be so heartless and low,
are we not suppose to rip what we sow?
How can anyone take this torment,
I guess that is no reason left to comment.

How did we get here?

Now is not the time to falter,
though I know that I cannot take this any longer.
For the people around me that I care most,
I have to keep my mask on and conceal what I have lost.

How did we get here?
