I turned off the light, and went to bed <br />Tired and drowsy, so fast I slept <br />I went back in time and space <br />To another world, of missing grace <br /> <br />Across the street, a child was lost <br />Crying and weeping the memories of ghosts <br />Souvenirs, of a forgotten family <br />Shattered by fear, as they all died <br /> <br />I saw in his eyes, the burning of a raging flame <br />Raised by the unknown, with no past nor name <br />The time has come, for him to decide <br />To live in fear, or to stand on Odin’s side <br /> <br />Bended on his knees, he took a knife <br />Ask the gods mercy to take his life <br />In return of pure revenge, and death <br />He felt down, as he takes his last breath <br /> <br />A breeze of wind, so cold and dead <br />Piercing his corpse, penetrating his head <br />He became an undead, soldier of the sacred hate <br />He soon got prepared to meet his wounded fate <br /> <br />Riding the wind, to reach his unwary foes <br />He screamed into the skies, clouds, and crows <br />To witness the end of his childhood’s pain <br />As heaven cried tears of blood and rain <br /> <br />Some tried to stand, some tried to fight <br />Others ran into the darkness of the night <br />So on, he killed them all, one by one <br />Forth to rest in peace, he shall leave none <br /> <br />Alone, he stands, with his bloody sword up high <br />Shouting at the moon, telling it goodbye <br />The elders awaits forth his job is done <br />He kissed the moon, he kissed the sun <br /> <br />He rode the stars to reach the skies <br />To die in peace, in the dusk of their cries <br />To continue his journey on the other side <br />To rejoin his family that once has died<br /><br />Elie Abou Chaaya<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vengeance-3/
