The Crestfallen

Chapter 1 - Poem of Bloodlust

Under the Oakwood tree,

was a fair maiden happier than thee

With her nose stuck in a book,

she sat contentedly.

As the bloodlust prince sat pretending.

Pretending with a deceitful disguise he wore like second skin.

He hid his plans well,

behind a Cheshire cat like grin,

for nobody to see in.

Blood, thick

Power, strong

Fear, so cold

Was the princes plan.

As he intended to spread them across the land.

Thirsty images of liquid crimson taint in his mind,

whilst his blade now itches by his side.

Itching and waiting for its sharp tip to pierce,

any innocent soul, that dare comes near.

Under the dreary sky and rumbling clouds of grey

Yes, will he fight.

As ruthless as Zeuss almighty lightning strike.

Mothers, daughters, sons and fathers alike

Will fall as if they had no value to life.

Will he show no mercy?

Shall he slaughter them and everyone in sight?

Yes, for this is his goal

To take over a kingdom so whole.

For it to then crumble under the sole

Of his leather boots, that will stand on top of it all.

With no mercy for all who are the people below.

But what is the purpose of it all?

For now, the Prince wondered.

Under the clear blue sky,

clear of clouded thunder.

But of course!

For the one purpose and one purpose only, that is,

The almighty conquering of all.

And him to be left standing amongst it all

As he rules all the lands,

With an iron fist, hardly a hand.

The moment of downfall,

of this kingdom which the princess happily rules,

Shall he strike with no mercy, nor remorse.

Waiting and waiting for the moment to arrive,

Does he sit.

Sitting still underneath that Oakwood tree,

with the princess still happily as can be.

As she looks to him unaware of his true form,

does she sit staring at her Prince charming.

who will sweep her off her feet – as this is what she believes him to be

Unaware of what is destined to be.

But the princes plans have only one flaw after all

As the princess too will fall amongst it all.

For an unlikely person who now is unknown.

Will the princes almighty plan to seize fall?

Or will his reign of terror be the end to all?
