The duel

.

Alone. It’s now just the two of them

Fighting for their kind, fighting to the death,

Until one or the other, draws his final breath

Gods among men, otherworldly mayhem.

One is the lost son of the sun,

Whose legend has only begun,

The other the keeper of night,

Which he has long kept full of fright.

Clashing against one another,

They cannot be stopped anymore,

Not even when both have reached death’s door,

Except by the soft touch of a mother.

.

Before the ink

.

Under grey clouds, his dying breath,

He expires, on to meet death.

A cold chest stained by dark red blood,

Pierced by a long and sharp steel rod.

The fight has gone on for hours,

Never flinches, never cowers,

Qualities that she now curses

As tears flow and cry pierces.

Trying to save his love he died,

In only that he took his pride.

The monster stands, still tall, unharmed,

Over her who he sees unarmed.

Oh she attacks -without a doubt!-

She strikes and strikes again, all out.

For once he sees what fear might mean,

But she falters, not yet a queen…

A wicked smile spreads on his face

As he gives her a good end’s grace.

All is quiet as he means death,

When suddenly, a single breath.

.

Remember

.

Remember this moment, never forget,

For it is first in the rest of your life,

Whatever happens, whatever regret

You may have, face proudly every new strife.

.

A path hidden

*

There. Did you notice?

Hidden between breaths,

In the space between spaces,

There is a door.

A world inside a world,

Here it is, right there,

Can you hear it beat?

A door has opened

Towards another place…

In this portal,

What can you see?

In this time,

What will you say?

In this world,

What will you do?

*

Glass heart

 

.

There is a heart of glass

In your velvety palm,

Be careful, oh be calm!

For one bad move, alas,

Would be the end of him.

So my dear stay still

For you are on the brim

Of an ill-fated kill.

.

 

 

Since my youngest age

.

Since my most youngest age

There is a single word

Worth writing on a page,

‘Tis said to be the sword

Mightier than the pen,

I have always been told.

Despite this, since age old,

Louder than words, for men,

Actions have always been,

In the hearts of those brave,

In eyes of those who have

All of these events seen.

.

Midnight

*

And there he goes again,

there he goes again,

whizzing around the stars,

dancing in the ocean

of blue and shining wonders!

You can’t even begin,

begin to imagine

what he feels right now,

what goes through his head,

his mind is made of thousands

upon thousands of dream,

each better than the other,

taking him away

from where he lives his life,

taking him away,

so far but yet so close,

and he dances, he smiles,

-can’t you see his smile?-

he twirls, riding each mile,

he can see the beauty of it all

and marvel at the world,

answering the call

that echoes in his heart

since the beginning of time…

Finally he rides off,

deep into the night,

oh so far away,

towards adventure,

into the unknown,

never to come back

but always to stay…
