Forever Free

Forever ensnared

Trapped in a world of Death, Disaster, and Despair

Held hostage in a life I was forced to live

Shackled down like a prisoner and caged as if I was a wild animal

Desperate to escape the invasive only darkness of Madness

On the verge of losing everything has drawn me to the brink of tears

Tired of senseless fighting, about to give in

Sensing Darkness approach I rattle my chains choosing to fight

The smell of Death masked Darkness's

revolting breath

Death breathed over me as if it was a caressing touch of a blanket

Numb to the touch suddenly drifting farther and farther away

Epiphany reached Destiny revealed

As Darkness towered higher and higher above head Death's song vanished

Truly awoken plunging forth fighting and fighting

Infilled with sweet pleasure as my purpose unmasked itself

Banishing Darkness, facing it head on was what I was born to do

Chains broken freedom finally within grasp

Running forward never stopping till Destiny was reached

Clinging and embracing I stood strong

Though my body remained bloody and bludgeoned I remained standing tall

Haunting memories never truly forgotten

Lost hope never realized

Sturdy and I breakable until the final day

The battle won

Mission completed

It was time to rest, live among others no longer

Then only then I allowed myself to fall

Others mourned my loss, I did not

Falling forever I lay at peace

There was no need to cry 'twas only my choice

Falling allowed peace so long craved

Burden lifted life fulfilled

Death granted what Life could not

Released and forever free

Peace removed Chaos and Light replaced Darkness

What lay was once a mortal shell withholding something much greater

Something cloaked until Death

What awaits me now?

No mortal shall ever know
