Fall of an Empire

"Heavenly sword"

Fall of an Empire

He got up

with blood dripping                                     

not to mention                  

His skin ripping

His kingdom underwent stripping       

 the last of the men, hopes dripping   

The rivals needed an extension                             

though they prayed to the ascension

Where the king dies the kingdom lies                                

unprotected from the allies                                                   

a new empire shall raise        

from the grave of the previous lives

But he shall not die                           

to watch the rival take prize              

the pride of wisdom, stay wise                                     

don’t give up nor let out cries

Stay strong and protective he chants                 

as he rises for the blood of infants         

born to wisdom a man shall serve,              

serve till his people deserve

His pride he shall reserve 

for days to come and preserve                              

honesty will observe                                                                 

a dying king doesn't conserve

For his kingdom, people and love                          

his life, they deserve…

Thank you...

You are welcome :)

A few of the rhymes might be a bit forced, but I do really like your rhyming scheme! And the way you have positioned your few un-rhymed lines makes them stand out, and carry more power. And while I don't generally like the whole pictures in poems thing; I do really like the chess imagery you have here. All in all, I enjoyed this; good work.

His pride he shall reserve

For his kingdom, people and love
