POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Shadows Abate
When the shadows abate
your path twisted by fate
will you still show such hate?
When darkness falls
when you run down those narrow halls
Will you die running
or live fighting?
When the Fire rains down
and the Earth tears asunder
will you realize, your greatest blunder?
When the curtain is mere thread
when all around you is dead
can you act without a shred
of uncertainty in your head?
When all is said and done
can you say that you have won?
The time to choose is nigh
worlds collide around you and I.

Man and Magic collide
The battle is fought, the war won.
The true trials have now begun
When man, magic and science collide
is truly when worlds have died.
The gifted versus the normal
who’d have thought it to be so formal?
Will they put bigotry and hate aside
or will they only attempt to further divide?
When the battle is won and they come out of cover
Will it ever truly be over?
To you and I that decision does reside
or will you just try and hide?
The fate of all hangs on a thread.
Pray the decisions are made by a level head.

The Veil Crumbles
As the dust settles, so do the old ways fade.
Now we must look to the future we have made.
In one decisive year we refused to succumb to fear
we followed the stars and made our paths appear.
Through the howling winds and roaring flame
you shall hear our name.
The dust is almost sand on ground
the old ways nowhere to be found.
The sky burns an ominous red
the wind carries the scent of the dead.
The oceans twist, churn and foam
the earth heaves, splitting the foundation of Rome.
The dust is gone, scattered to...

Up high
See What I see
Feel what I feel.
Walk in my shoes for while
You definitely would not smile.
Come down now from your Ivory Tower
Up there with all your supposed "Power".
Come down with all the people below
I promise you, that you really don't know.
If I were in your position
Never would I have bent all to submission.
If I had all that power, that influence
Instead of hurt, I would have made a difference.
So come on down from on up high
Really now, why so shy?
Honestly, if I were you I would stay put
Because...
Feel what I feel.

Mana
Swirling
Spinning
Undulating
It forms around me like a mist
Turquoise in color
Cool to the touch
I breathe it, draw it into me through every pore
I’ve never felt so alive, felt so much more.
It gathers, intensifying, becoming ever so dense
the power it gives me is immense.
I open my eyes ever so wide
I feel everything now, nothing can hide.
I open my hands and it all comes alive.
With this I will always survive.
I thrive in it.
I bask in its embrace
Not even Death can stare me in the eye.
So much so that...

Power
The fire brings me down
It leads me out of the light
in to the darkness
to the sanctuary of the night.
I give my life
to yearn,
to earn,
the power I deserve.
Fiery Shadows, given way by the moonlight
bring me farther down the road
to what I am becoming,
and farther from what I once was.
I give my life
to yearn,
to earn,
the power I crave.
Closer to it I become,
burning endlessly,
it envelops every fiber of my being
until there is nothing left of what I once was.
I gave my life

Cataclysm
The world falls apart all around.
You scream but do not make a sound.
Fire rains down, the earth heaves
now you see what Chaos weaves.
The curtain rises to make the opening act.
You won’t forget it that is a fact.
As the oceans churn, twist and groan
it is then that purple glow shone.
With a horrendous blast and a terrible crack
it is forever too late to run and turn back.
The lightning falls, drums of war thunder
is it enough yet to make you wonder?
Now that you realize your greatest blunder
Watch the ground beneath you be...

Love is Dead
Love is a Myth
Love is a Lie
Love is something I must let die.
Love is poison creeping through my veins
Leaving nothing behind but severe pains
Love is something so far away
Something I dare not say
For if I try, surely I would fail
My heart grows so very, very frail
The warmth slowly fades away
Quicker and quicker the ice does decay
If love is a flame, it is losing fuel
Losing to the ice, ever so cruel
But strength is what the ice may be
It is all so cold, calculating and true
My heart now gone from red to blue
If...

Battered and Revealing
Battered. Beaten. Broken.
They do not know what they have awoken.
The demon who’d taken so much to keep concealed
At last, has finally been revealed.
They thought to hunt it down, to banish.
In the end it was they who would vanish.
For the Fallen, the time has come
and now they pay the final sum.
The fire of rage boils up through the land
melting the steel they held in their hand.
The coldness of Death clings to the air
Pity them not, for He doesn’t care.
The hell-hounds run, snapping and snarling
the black vine twisting, ever...
