Nicely done. I'm usually not a fan of fire/water/earth/air themes because they're cliched, but that didn't bother me here.

[Chevalier-Ange]

Thanks...
I truly was trying for a different approach on this one. It had originally started out completely different, but then I got the idea of embedding a second theme within the main one. Seems it worked out ok after all ^^

[OnewingedDragon]

Excellent my friend. You accomplished everything I believe you set out to do.

[Chevalier-Ange]

Oh how deeply I wish that were true my friend...
Thank you all the same though

Ruins

Long has the silence stood,
in this place that knew your name.
Now across the river I call out,
only to hear my voice return in vain.

And the walls have all begun to crumble,
as ivy grows upon the rook.
It had weathered many a storm indeed,
yet only five seasons it seems this took.

Yet once this was a mystic place,
A place where memories used to dwell.
Alas now it seems that even the mist,
has no more stories left to tell.

[OnewingedDragon]

Um...wow.

I can absolutely picture that.

A lone warrior stands upon a river bank, staring off into ancient ruins. Several lifetimes, but mere moments to him, have passed since that fateful night.

I concur. Very well done!

An Angels Prayer

Dear God…it has been said by many, that I possess gifts that normal people do not have. Gifts that make me…a bit different then some, a little more understanding of others, and in some cases, have the ability to befriend any and all who need a friend. To feel the deeper feelings within another, and yet, see through the lies and the shrouds one places upon themselves to hide from the world. Simple gifts to me I suppose, but they seem grand to others I guess.
And as you know God, over the last year I have not been feeling very well physically, and I have begged for your mercy each and every night throughout that time. I have asked and cried that I get better…
…Well…tonight I have a different prayer God...and tonight I wish to strike a bargain with you if that is possible. I will not pray for me tonight, but I will pray for her and her health and well-being. And I will gladly exchange all the gifts you have bestowed upon me, if you could just make her well again God. To take her pain away, let her smile, and if possible…let her laugh a laugh or two.
And God, I do this for no selfish reason whatsoever. I do this not for personal gain, for recognition, nor any words of praise. I do this God for one reason only. Because she is my friend…

Amen

WOW...it has been a while now hasn't it? 


Sands of time

The moment had finally arrived for me…to me better said…to walk the sands of time that night and listen to all there was to hear. I had completely expected I would be alone too, for this was after all, supposed to be a time for me to listen…to learn…to feel all there was to feel.

…but of course he would not have it…

Within moments of my arrival, he thundered in with all his glory…all his loyalty…all his pride, announcing his presence with a flash of light, repeatedly, thus reminding me that I can now never be truly alone again.

And as if the Storm wasn’t enough, he brought them along as well to ensure my safety…my peace of mind…my tranquility…my moment to listen to the world uninterrupted.

She brought with her the calming waters…the rising tides, and of course the cool winds I am so very fond of. With each roar Storm made, she rhythmically cascaded the waters to the beat of his rumble. And when his sounds doppled away, only the sounds of her waves soaking into the shore were left to hear.

…but again, that was still not enough for him…

Then she arrived…gently at first like always. Misty…cool…and gentle. Then much like every time before, the torrent began from above, and she began her deluge on the earth I was standing upon with fierceness only she could muster…only she could control.

Together they began the symphony that would engulf me for hours.

Flashing…rumbling…cascading…cooling…drenching.
Over and over their song wooed me into deep thought.
Flashing…rumbling…cascading…cooling…drenching.
With her torrents hitting her waves as they rise the tide together, he would add harmony and enlightment with every ebb.
Drenching…cooling…cascading…rumbling…flashing…

…as quickly as he had arrived, he left again.
…as fierce as she was, she calmed and faded away.
…leaving me with only her soothing waves to bring me back to the sands of time.
…then she too left me standing there in the wake of their presence.

I felt you, I saw you, and I heard you…

All in the hands of time my friend(s)

[Ampersand]

Wow, these are all really good.

[Chevalier-Ange]

William

Forlorn, torn,
Silver crosses adorn…
…those who always remember you.
And all the kind things, you would do.

Thoughts, memories,
Those 3am stories…
…remembered like yesterday.
And the sadness felt, your final day.

Hoping, praying,
You’re always watching…
…and happy with me and not crying.
Hoping I've not failed you Father, for still…
…I am trying.

~~~~

It has been a year in two days William, and I hold my promise to you dearly everyday. Alas my friend, I fear I will never know why I have become what I am today.

Forgive me if I have disappointed you.

I miss you so much.

Another year has passed my friend, yet still I hear your words as though they were yesterday.

Did you know my life would change so drastically?
Did you know what was to come…and what would be?
Did you hold your words silently like the Warrior ?
Or were you just waiting for the right time like She ?

I miss you so very much my friend…


Once long ago I made a promise. To this day it remains…unbroken.
