THE CHRONICLE OF THE BLOOD-FILLED CROWN

III: Princess Blood-Lust

Cowering in a cave, I mourn and weep.
No grave to cry by or a tomb to leave flowers.
Through the cracks in the walls, rain does seep.
In the bitter cold, over my husband I do cower.
He promises me he'll do all in his power
To restore my father's kingdom to peace and rested sleep.

But, alas, the kingdom is torn –
Limb from limb –
Why was that ingrate ever born?
He has taken my father's kingdom under him.
Unrightfully, upon his brow is the crown's rim,
And every person bows to him in the morn.

War is crazy and delirious – even so,
He is not stupid or dumb
Or mentally destabilized – No.
He has my father's cunning, every last crumb…
Perhaps even more – to give him his full sum.
He is, undoubtedly, a formidable foe.

There is nothing left to do, save plot and plan,
Although all may go to waste or in vain…
But I must avenge my kin and my clan.
Oh, perhaps I follow War – becoming insane!
It was never my talent, to inflict pain,
More fitting for me was to flee, so I ran.

Like a coward. A coward, that's all I am.
Ran as fast as my legs could carry me, I did.
I did not stay and defend, like a ram
Butts the cunning wolf to rid
Dangers for the helpless young lamb.
A coward, that is all I am.

But no more,
No more and never again.

I shall defeat War.
I shall step on his crown and spit on his face.
I shall not sit here and cry anymore.
I shall fight in my father's honor and race
To rid the world of War.
Forever and ever – never to be replaced.

I fled the kingdom as Princess Lust,
Whilst my sister was killed and ground to dust,
I shall avenge her, and my mother and father, I must.
From now, I shall return as Princess Bloodlust.
Princess Lust isn't my favorite character...

...and i don't know who to dedicate this one too... so the first person to favorite this poem will get it. =D
