Upon An Isolated ThroneA Poem by Sirajudin Matin
With an elegant twist the dead petals fell form his heart
Like the blackened words he'd heard crashing down like thunder, Echoing throughout the broken plains That so decadently composed the thoughts of his domain. Beneath this shattered sky He knew they'd watched such events unfold- From within the walls of two opposing realms. There, as he gazed upon Time's tauntingly cadenced pendulum The world that never was took form before his very eyes. And Like an axe severing skin, It's steady sway snatch this dream And with a cold dead hand It carried it away. With the anguish of a thousand forgotten men He pleaded his tyrant to stray, And as the night sat still within a cold blue moon. The walls around him began to chant In a voice that pierced like Odin's Blade "How long must we wait for the rose to dawn again?" Yet above this he pondered most When Time would yield their land, A world forever meant to be. © 2011 Sirajudin Matin |
