Shield of the West

Zeta

My name... is Zeta. I'm not the same as most. I've always been a little bit... /different/. I've always been a little bit... /strange/. Nobody knows what to make of me, least of all myself, and nobody knows how I die. \<a pause\> Many have tried...

Yours

Pitter patter, drip and drop Can you see them? Can you not? See them spatter, see them fall. See them sprayed upon the wall. See those that your knives have cut. See their hearts and ripped out guts. See them fall beneath your sword, all of...

Defeat is not Surrender

Defeat is not surrender, nor is darkness light. Though pain may overwhelm us it cannot stop our bright. Defeat is not surrender, nor is the battle lost. Defeat is not surrender, though we have paid great cost. For in our hearts a forest...

Broken

For Makyo. Today my heart broke for a friend for one I care for deeply one who struggles with bitter curse one that would end her cheaply. My heart, thus broken, sang and wept for deep depression's mire for manic impulse, shattered mind,...
