My Hollow King

Cradling an unspoken fear,
Feel your time drawing near,
Reach your hands to the sky,
Release your hopeless sigh.

You’ve loved and hated,
Blessed and damned,
Yet were never sated,
Through you mountains demand.

Close your eyes and speak your peace,
Your pow’r begins to cease,
Beg on bended knee,
Surrounded by burning debris.

You’ve tortured and cradled,
With strength far beyond fabled,
Been life or death,
All in a breath.

Now you stand before your jury,
Sentenced and found guilty,
Plead for the only thing with worth;
The life that was yours from birth.

You were taken from your throne,
The only thing you’ve ever known,
Now the joyous silver bells ring,
You are gone my hollow king.

For Jaimie.

Geez ashlynn.. I'm so jealous of your poem writing skills. your poems have so much emotion and almost a hidden feeling that could only be interpreted by you.. at the same time, your poems almost hold the power of many interpretations, making them very songlike and inspiring. I really am glad your getting into that advanced writing class.. it will do you so much good.. AISHITARU!

You're writing gets better every time I read it. :)

Putting my jaw back together this many times can't be good for it. Otherwise, keep up the good work.

Jaimie is my biological father and he has been playing with my emotions for far too long telling me he wants to be a part of my life then not speaking to me for three years then calling me drunk and bitching me out(excuse please but hey its the truth) so yeah i am not allowing him to have that power over me anymore.
