Flame and Steel

May 11, 2015
By Anonymous

Let them tremble in fear
At what they had awoke
The legend that’s here
Has yet to be broken.
They make it feel angry,forgotten, alone
But dust turns to dust
The shadow to bone
The red pain to rust.
The trials make it stronger,
Like steel tempered in fire,
A victim no longer,
Nor a shell in a pyre.
That time is long gone.
I am no longer your pawn.

Favorite Quote:
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
