Thunder and Chains*
written by Trapezium
02:04 PM 7/30/04
The red lightning collides,
With the large oak tree,
The little boy hides,
And cries for 'mummy'

The thunder crashes,
Sending a jolt down his spine,
A whip soon slashes,
"Now you are mine."

His eyes turn black,
And focus on his tower,
He se's the torture rack,
He is turning sour.

"Burn this crucifix" he cries,
Now consumed by the dark within,
"I hate all of your stupid lies,
There's no such thing is sin."

He tortures himself and others around,
Just for the soul of darkness,
He falls to the ground,
This is no game this is not chess.

He stares in the mirror,
And finds no soul,
His temper will simmer,
Until he completes his goal.

On stones he lies,
Tied to a rock,
Subsided cries,
Muffled by his sock.

The thunder still sounds,
The lightning still burns,
Feeling old mounds,
His head he turns.

Finally he looks at,
The dagger of his dreams,
So beautiful so fat,
A work of art it seems.

He pulls the dagger close to his wrist,
The day he always needed,
He makes one deep long final slit,
The blood comes out all beaded.

This is one of the many recurring dreams i had... i decided to write it in poetry... i think this is actually a good poem... not like most of my others... i guess it's because it's different... my poetry was seeming samey i guess...
