Destiny's Blade

Destiny's Blade

A Poem by Vidya Bacchus
"

It speaks for itself I think.

"

                  

    

I have thrown myself on destiny's blade,

And dragged you from the battlefield your ransom paid,

I would face the pack and grant no quarter,

Sacrifice myself like a lamb to the slaughter.

 

But as soon as you were free,

Into her arms you would flee,

And bid me understand, your eyes so kind,

Unaware of all the ways you should be mine.

 

And I love you more than my heart can contain,

For you to be happy I shall endure this pain,

And when you need another valiant rescue,

I will be the first one there fighting for you.

 

If the only place I can look at you is from the shadows,

Lest I come into the light and my feelings show,

Then I choose this path though fool I be,

Against these chains that bind me to you I shall never struggle to be free.

Aww hello Lix nice to meet you and thank you so much for your lovely review :)
Painfully beautiful poem Vidya. But I will wish that one should be out of such vicious cycle but at the same time when you are in love, nothing is in your hands.

Very wise words there Avi and so true.Thank you :)
The most painful of sacrifices, if one can call it a sacrifice...conceding one's love for another to ensure their happiness...obviously a sad piece but you've spoken with crystal-clarity...an incredible piece that truly touched me...well done as always Vidya :)

This sounds absolutely excruciating. It begins with a blade and ends with chains...you've captured the hell of such an existence. Nice work, as always.
