Body, Soul, and Mind

     The good news is I don't seem to be sick anymore. The bad news is, now matter how often I rework the next scene for Dragon Valley, I can't seem to get it to work. So, if there is a fan of what I've written so far, you may have to wait a couple of weeks for another story in that line.

     Today, I am going to share a poem with you. This is a poem I wrote from the point of view of a villain in a story I haven't shared here. Well, sort of a villain; anyway, a character with some darkness to him. It's a little dark and fairly emo, but I'm proud of it. I hope you enjoy it.

BODY, SOUL, AND MIND

The human body, soul, and mind:

All these are me, all these are mine.

I do not like the man in me:

The things inside, the truth I see,

The darkness that's within my soul

Is something everybody knows.

Misunderstood and hated well,

The secret life is living hell.

I know I am a selfish man.

I'll take what little hope I can.

Eternal enemies are these,

The things I love, the things I need.

But what else can a person be,

Than what is truly underneath?

Shall darkness be dispelled by light?

No; coming day won't end my night.
