This is where I’ve always belonged,Within clouds of shadow,I’ve always known. Finding what is right and wrong,Fighting to regain what I’ve already lost,This is my cross to bear. This is where I’ve always belonged,Within clouds of shadow,I’ve always known. Do you truly seek to rid this world of what it needs?*** To wrought the world’s … Continue reading Clouds of Shadow

Duty’s Bane: an excerpt from Dutybound
The gates of the manor were flooded with lights as multitudes of people traveled the roads. It took about a sixteenth of the Mozian military to securely lay passage for the relatively minuscule number of nobles invited to the party, as waves of commoners gathered there, ever hopeful. To witness a moment of luxury beyond … Continue reading Duty’s Bane: an excerpt from Dutybound
Consequences of Love
There’s something I must come to terms with,A grisly fate I can’t escape.It’s hard accepting feelings I can’t quell.These works of a dangerous spell. There isn’t much I can deny.I know exactly where my heart does lie.But coming to terms with this dark truth;Is this something I should do?Because when I look into your eyes, … Continue reading Consequences of Love
Take Me Back
There was once a time where I felt free;When I was climbing towards this awesome peak.The world was bright as I moved closer, towards this light.My future had never seemed so right. But then something changed;And I felt this sting of something strange,Of something I could not take, the pain of my own heartbreak. Take … Continue reading Take Me Back
A Loss of Self
I lost a piece of myself,Searching for something nearby.I lost a part of who I was,Looking for something by my side. I wallowed in the Darkness,Along an obscured path.Malign from the blindside,I denied the comfort of the Light. I let the Darkness invade my mind.And now, the Light has left me;I’m lost in a space … Continue reading A Loss of Self
Conviction
I travel far and alone, seeking peace and simple bliss. But, I have found myself in the darkest space.Still, I long to feel it;The essence of home, a place to call my refuge.Yet still, I must accomplish an unknown task.Will I find it here or is it there?I do not know. So why must I … Continue reading Conviction
The Tower
There is a tower outside my window,Standing still, shiny, and blue.This tower incomplete and entirely made of glass;It rises beyond my range of sight, ever changing,Climbing higher and higher with the passage of time. As I sleep, I hope that I may someday dream,Only to wake and see this tower rising before me."Find your way; … Continue reading The Tower
Among the Stars
It is hard to find the words;It is hard to say the words I think of.To describe the way I feel is beyond the scope of all I've hoped for.No one knows of all I've seen, nor do they know me at my core.Sometimes it's as if I don't know myself.I don't know how I … Continue reading Among the Stars
Echoes of a Dream
Lost in thought, I foresee past the trees;Into times, that could not be.These dreams, dreams within me, could they be something?Could they possibly be the reality in which I seek? In the distance, I see you;A distant dream.A reality for you; a reality for me.A promise to keep.A light lost with time,Echoes; echoes through the night.Through this hole you left; left behind.Can you hear it now?Moving through … Continue reading Echoes of a Dream
Between the Lies
Truth and honesty; the virtue of these very words,Is this what the heart believes, or does my heart deceive me?To believe these words, those in which such virtue does exist,One must see past the lines of trust and fault;Between the lies one comes across. I must admit, my heart was at one point blind.Behind the … Continue reading Between the Lies
