Well this is the kinda thing I’m into: Here’s Sevine, if she were a deserter - [hider=Sevine] An anguished heart, Tormented and battered. Oh what have I done? Where have I gone? Home is dead. My feet carry me onward, down paths unexplored, dusty dirt roads instead. Never to show my face again, branded a coward. Weakness is not like a Nord, I fled to distant lands. There is no love, for a deserter, be they man or woman. See now, how their eyes scorn and judge a woman torn. I could not raise my axe, my blade did not fall A mockery I have become. I turn my face from the sun, slip through the shadows, a ghost of the woman I was.[/hider] And Leif’s poem if Sevine had died in his arms instead of him saving her: [hider=Leif] Pale was her skin, a body trembling in my embrace, A sweat stained face, Words of delusions spoke asunder. There is no fame No glory In death A blade poisoned From whence it came, An unsung story. A crown of fire, Forever gone. Ashes scattered, amongst the winds. A life cut short. My own life come to end. And I sail from port, To port, an empty bed. Brown glass bottles, Are flecks of her distant memory. Swaying feet, and a needed throttle To wake myself from this story. But is it a story? Is it a dream? Or is it an everlasting nightmare. Forever haunted, Her ghost torments me. Evergreen eyes gaze back from the shadows, A taunt, a tease, of what will never be. And if I could, but hold her again, Breathe life anew, I would be a changed man, She was one of the few, That stole my heart. Her voice carries on the wind, A whisper, Words never clear, A deeper, darker fear.[/hider]
