We had an enemy we didn't understand We had an ally we couldn't rely on All we had was each other All we had was our brotherhood All we had was our rigorous training We were baptised in fire and violence We were sunk in cruel unrelenting combat We struck back like Hammer and Anvil We kept hope in a nightmare paid with blood, sweat and tears Some of us left without a beating heart Some of us made it but forgot how to live Some of us turned our scars to success However those left of us that have managed to survive... We all feel as if we're standing in the centre of a Burning House

Burning House
A kingdom has a king But can it be a without a Queen? A King can burn with fury and wrath A Queen can cool tempers and rage A King can make tough decisions A Queen can surge with unrestricted emotion A King can declare a war A Queen can declare her love A King can be wise A Queen can be empathetic Both have their highs and lows Roles and characteristics can be reversed Alas, in the end... a Good King has a Good Queen to rule beside him. Together.

Queen
Lips pursed, beckons you ever closer Soft to touch, yet firm to latch onto Moves and flows like light ocean waves Slight salty sweat, leaves a sour tang Taste withers away, leaving sweet yet sad memories

Lips
The heart burns like the fiercest fire Lights with passion as its igniter Grows the more it is feeded Weakens when not given what's needed Takes astronimical portions to keep the hunger at bay Just a bucket of water washes the heat away Fully aflame it can be seen for miles Even a spark can light up an aisle It'll streak, power, shine and search for love It'll break, whither and darken when it finds none When the flames of wanting are said and done I'll tell you the story of the heart has only begun. The embers left over can always be rekindled, New seeds of Eden in black Ash can always be sprinkled.
