When there's no-one left
To fight this war
To chain me down
To call me enemy

No-one left
For me to hold
To hear my dreams
Receive this ecstacy

When there's only me
And my shadow
Then you may say
That I died

Author's Comments

I loved The God Eaters by Jesse Hajicek (aka :iconstartyrian: ) - it's one of those books where the words flow past your eyes so fast and so vividly you're not even aware of them, you see only the story. The whole text is available for free online in two places that I know of, and still I bought the book. I have a feeling it will suffer the same fate as Good Omens and have the cover read off it...

Anyway - one of the main characters, Kieran Trevarde, has a poem in Iavian written around his arm (left bicep, if I remember rightly) and I wondered what it would say if it were translated. What kind of poem a man like Kieran would have as a tattoo. The book says it's two lines - I may have overstepped that a little.

That's truly a powerful poem: it perfectly captures the essence of true, absolute death in a short, simple form.

Well... thankyou. Very much. It's not often anybody reads my poetry, or thinks to leave a comment, let alone say such nice things. I'm truly touched.

Good poetry deserves good praise :) It's a shame that no one else saw fit to post compliments :(
