Abandonment

[Gymnotide]

I think I'm going to use this one in a poetry contest in the future. Wish me luck.
I wrote it for fun... No reason, really.

It's... About war.

Abandonment

Radiance, rebirth, the break of dawn,
Suffering forgotten; suffering foregone.
"Warriors awaken! Tomorrow awaits!"
Sword and shield face osseous gates,

The fallen throng, the mental thrall.
Redemption forgotten; an unearthly squall.
The jawbone, the ribcage, the lifeless dirge,
Marching, relentless, the mourning scourge.

Willow, fatui, brimstone light,
Ensiferous heart spills brimstone life.

Two swords collide in vorpal wrath,
Two kingdoms collide in polar paths.

Your brother I have slain.
He falls; I remain.
Lament, repent, forget, forgive,
The slayer is the victim.

A blade for a blade, an eye for an eye,
The tears of the widow, the tears of the sky.
To murder for justice and die for honor,
That is the way of the soldier.

Providence,
Where are you now?
Your might, your faith
I disavow.

That's fantastic! ^^

We were given the task of writing a poem in my English class, and that right there is miles better than any that our class came up with.

Top o' the class! ;)

This poem had rhytm (44%)...soul (16%), and the perfect words (40%)...

It was a masterpiece unlike any I have seen since I returned to Poetry...and the very first to steal my...10/10. Full mark!

Keep it up...I guess you didn't release this poem as a freestyle; it's a decent effort.

Goodluck.

Wow, Gymnotide. That just blew me away. Wonderful, wonderful. There's really nothing more to say.

Kuchiki Byakyuya, I'm going to have to comment on your reviewing style. You take random digits out of the air to make your reviews sound smart but really they are quite lacking. And it's spelled rhythm. Just post your thoughts on the poem in question; anyone who is a decent reviewer knows that you are just making up random percentages. Don't do it.

Well...the only person I see complaining is you...and I guess it doesn't do any harm; and besides; I didn't pick random words...if you did a little more thinking you would notice that I picked random 'estimated' percentages...I don't do anything plain random...and If this has anything to do with you or you poems...just tell me to stop posting in their threads...that's a lot easier.

Okay, this is good poetry here, you should have this like published, better poetry than I could write, great job =D
