Thanx.Well I developped this on the idea of three different types of pain... the first one is physical...
The second is Emotional...
and the Third is spiritual... he's blaming his god for not saving his family.
your sense is a good approximation of the story i built in my head behind these three poems... since i was picturing a Man during the Spanish Inquisition
And We Are Alone
It is over now
I ask you why
You broke your vow
For you did lie
She holds their seed
She wants it dead
Who can I plead?
For where you lead
My son so small
He is now lame
Heard not his call
You are to blame
And these my hands
Let them both rot
And fall in sands
For I could not
But you never did
And we are alone
For what you bid
Wish I had known
I Was Once Strong
Now a cruel shove
Brings me to see
All that I love
Kneel before me
Cutting like a knife
My son screams
My bloody wife
Into my dreams
Why does she bow?
She is no whore
I beg you now
Please do no more
For all I hear
I cannot sleep
Broken in fear
I can only weep
I was once strong
No longer so
Where did I wrong?
To bend so low
Nothing is left
They took it all
I am bereft
Not but to crawl
There is no light
The final blow
The end in sight
Now I shal
To Feast the Crow
To settle a score
Command me strip
Blood on the floor
I taste the whip
You hurt me so
For what you shun
Much to my woe
I cannot run
You cut my flesh
And blood does flow
And torn still fresh
To feast the crow
You call me liar
And when I quake
For your desire
My bones you break
And sleep comes slow
For still I ache
For yet I know
Worse when I wake
well we all need some time off...you, me... hollywood.... even god takes a little time off, how do you think the dark ages happened just ask Bruce All-mighty.
Then i wouldn't have any, because i could never just have five, i'd never be able to make up my mind on which Only five i could have...
although The Hobbit would be in the titles.
