Embattled
by: Ronovan
You begin silent
Over the noise of the world’s moans
Cacophonous dins ring
Creeping into the dwelling
Like smoke through the crevices
You engulf all things
Confusion then starts
As the opposed forces clash
Battle is begun
The lightning afield
Covered melded defenses
Trembling in space
Furious fists
Pound the helpless whimpering
Hands force the pain back
The driving deepens
The anguishing to great heights
Flies into mania
The darkening breaks
The shattered foes defenses
Hide insanity
You stand the victor
Over the assured defeat
Sight slips to the base
Your voice is not heard
As the sound falls to dead ears
Sleep comes to the lost
Until the next dawn
Breaks and the day is anew
Once again it comes
