Immortal Fantasist

Immortal Fantasist

A Poem by Satoshi IroTzu
"

I started with the idea to write a song like "The Eye of the Tiger". I think it turned more into a poem than a song. I failed, but I think this failure might be found beautiful as well.

"
Early in my days
little me was longing for stars
but lost souls were eager to anchor my rise

I scraped the bottom, blackened my soul
the Holy Light shun me in stormy night
my chains shattered; raised to surface in salvation
bound to iron-will to embrace my own damnation

In my fall, tenacity got in the wind
rich stories of golden trooper failed to endure
left only with my past of raging bull
still enough for my lust to kindle and burn
Ignited and ready, through my hell I`ll pull

Grey`s the world I walk in
starts to color only in red from my frenzy
Under craze, driven by rage
retreat can`t resolve warrior`s troubled heart
history`s waiting for my page
I hunger for legacy that`ll be retold to death by a sage

Faith raised me in the past
sharp as a razor in my childhood days
but glory messed with my warrior stance
the seduction of fame got me into a trance

I was flooded with premonitions
It wasn`t long when I lost my track
took my zealous swing only to have a miss
destined to be an immortal fantasist

Very enjoyable, the fantasy like theme really helped deliver your struggle to ascend through out the poem. As you said in your opening stanza you long for the stars or stardom of your most precious talent. Don't let any lost souls anchor you down with misguided reviews, enjoy your rise im sure we will.

A poem is a song without music, this is lyrical but I can only imagine the complications of creating a tempo and beat as well as picking a musical genre. The strong religious metaphysical descriptions reach out and grab's me but it is the emotional plea between the lines that pulls me in. If you ever do manage to meld your words and music please let me know where I can pick up a copy because I would love to hear and feel the power they would express. Bravo! Five out of five Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
