Life before

Life before

A Poem by MrBeardM
"

The journey of life before.

"
At the peak of the mountain,
Edge of purgatory,
Grew a tree made of ice,
Beginning our story.
-
And the wind was cold, 
Blowing with ash,
Killed was the nature,
At the end of a flash.
-
Higher than the peak,
Lightning was born,
A storm made of fire,
Ready to mourn,
-
The death of the fallen,
At the base of the North,
Their journey was harsh,
A journey cut short.
-
The mountain stood tall,
With big walls of ice,
Protecting the treasure,
All felt so nice.
-
For two hundred years,
The sweet kiss of death
Is what fire felt
Running out of breath.
-
Because every attempt,
The walls didn't budge,
The ice didn't melt,
Death was the judge.
-
And here comes our hero,
A child made of flames.
With a jacket of ashes,
Stopped at the gates.
-
The ice didn't move,
But then he got cold,
Estinquished his flames,
And knocked at the door.
-
Walls came down,
The child got inside,
He looked around,
Beginning to climb.
-
Nine months later,
The journey did end.
The tree made of ice,
Scared to offend.
-
He bowed down,
Down on a knee.
Then he got up
And looked at the tree.
-
It started melting,
Smaller and smaller,
Now as the child, 
No longer taller.
-
One single touch,
And then it was gone
The tree and the child
Both carried on.
-
Fire and ice,
Two hundred years,
A war neverending,
Came to a peace.
-
And in the end,
The death that we mourn,
From fire and ice,
A person was born.
