Poem: Broken King

in writing •  7 years ago 


-Broken King-

So once I was a king
So once I had a kingdom
and once there was my queen
we loved and we were fearsome
my people smiled with love
blessings all around in tandem
I was blessed with all the gifts then
happiness appearing in random
I remember those blue skies
cloudy seldom
I can feel that air
its clear fusion
and its gone now
for forever
never to come back
never to be mine
again to be the same
I was defeated
I was deserted
history repeated
as once I cheated
but I asked forgiveness
I begged and I found light
So I'm not the wrong side
I'm gonna ask them
those who just took away
what I made with my blood
no, no more now I sway
I'll stand ma ground
raise ma shield
and swing my blade
now they hear it
hear ma battle cry
look here I'm burning lit
now here I decide
I decimate your writ
your sick in a nick
I rip and slip through your grip
I dip and flip my tip
of sword and lick your blood
as I outstrip
they fall, I win and yet I lose
cause what’s gone is never coming back
you ask why this, did I choose
I say I'm broken
can't you judge what it proves...
