Elan vital
You talk of misfortunes,
When you've only lost worldly possessions.
-
You talk of anger,
When you spill your Earl Grey tea
-
You talk of despair,
when you cant afford something pretty.
-
You talk of the lies,
When you have yet to be deceived.
-
You talk of revenge,
when you have not yet tasted its wrath.
-
'Yes my lord,
I will redeem your lost crown,'
And give you my blood.
-
'Yes my lord,
I will pour your tea again,'
And bite back my Demon
-
'Yes my lord,
I can obliterate my kin for your pretty thing.'
And mourn for there lives.
-
'Yes my lord,
I can find the verity'
And accept the torment that guards it.
-
'Yes my lord,
I can protect your life.'
And take the chagrin of your foes.
-
I can bleed out my life,
To recover your crown.'
Wile taking your misfortune.
...And spend it on souls...
-
I can horde my power
To preserve your life
Wile taking your anger
...And using it to feed...
-
I can sacrifice my own
To make you happy.
Wile taking your despair,
...And absorbing the fallen...
-
I can take the cruelty
To bring your innocence.
Wile taking the lies,
...And use it to manipulate...
-
I can withhold the beating
To vanquish your fear.
Wile taking revenge
...And use it to bring devastation.
-
I shall have built upon my misfortune
I shall have built upon my anger,
I shall have built upon my despair,
I shall have built upon the lies,
I shall have built upon my revenge...
-
You see, master
I am not noble,
I am not a friend,
I am not a relief,
I do not speak in truth,
I do not aid...
-
You see, master
I am you.

I interesting battle with one's self... Rather drawn out literally & in metaphoric terms. Some deep yet elusive throws of random genius amidst the rubble. Keep Grindin CAOS737
