So this is where we are.
Stillness lies beneath.
The tremble of the ground.
The beat of marching feet.
Shouting through my heart
that we cannot die
pick up your weapon
lay down your battle cry.
Sound can go so far
then it is destroyed.
Actions cause for war
to fill this empty void.
A double sided sword
is what I choose to take
Running through your heart.
Now you choose your fate.
Knowing by true love
that I will not die
pick up your weapon.
Lay down your battle cry.
Sound can go so far
then it is destroyed.
Actions cause for war
to fill this empty void.
So now it comes to this.
Life will not repeat.
The waking of your soul
When you are complete.
Shouting through your heart
that you cannot die.
Pick up your weapon
Lay down your battle cry.
This is such a cool and imaginative write.. I can definately see this as a ballad in a really good fantasy novel, and when I say novel I am referring to a book 500 to 1000 pages long.. I can almost hear the beating of the war drums as the host marches off to war and my blood rushes as if I were a part of the preparations as well.. Well executed.. I love it.. I am most definately adding this as a fav too..
