Empire
Our empire will rise,
people around us will disguise
and with all their lies
our mother land dries.
They try to fill us with poison;
Before the sun is up, they'll try to run.
Soldiers and archers we send a ton
and they had never won.
How long do we put up with our fights?
I've lost sense of our nights;
I want to see how our love ignites
through the big clouds in these heights.
I don't want to put you in an exile;
since we last spoke - it's been a while.
I still love you and I can smile
even if our vow sailed away in a vile.
Now I look at the glass of wine,
then at your face - so divine.
I wonder, how will I shine
after this deadly drink of mine?
Our empire has fallen,
all that we had is broken;
the emperor I wished I've proven;
All that followed was a curtain.
This is a poem inspired by characters in my novel.
