Destiny's Blade

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.

This is a wonderful, heartfelt poem. The beauty and pain of unrequited love.

Thank you Laura :)

Beautiful. The bond of love - even if it is not returned. You can fight for that person, but unrequited is unrequited. Love is powerful and always holds a part of our soul to them. Love this write, Vidya! Seriously a favorite of mine! xo (:
