...The Western Chronicles - In Defiance...

Clear & Stern reprobations
Like a deft set of arrows....
Piercing deep....beyond our armor
The core of our creed breached
Our eyes widened in realization
Our hearts turning cold in appalling submission
A downward apostatic spiral
Cries of the princess....a distant echo in the dark
The curtains closing on this doomed stage

Harsh rebuttals...unfair accounts of our stewardship
Midnight efforts....tiresome mornings
The deep reaches of our treasure chests emptied
Immature prospects readily stripped
An unripe fruit....plucked in desperation
Still.....the rebuttals re-echo!
Our confidence failing...
For all known sacrifices have been laid....

Stringed words....subtle whispers
Deadly baits masked by honey dipped musings
Midnight rendezvous....spurring our heartbeat to unrest
Gloom shadowing the light of our minds
The pending darkness...quietly eroding the edifice of our wisdom
Our hearts weakened.....our soul troubled
Abstractions leaving footprints of demonic sway

In defiance yet we stand.....
Heeding the distant calls of her royal essence
Your Achilles heel we seek
Scrawny contentions....not befitting our glorious heritage
Confutation immersed in spite
Craftily structured to mask the skill of our hearts
Devious hints....our hearts to sway

In defiance we stand....
For the respect of our hearts you thus lost...
And the love therein....inherently dissipated
Our swords forever locked in embrace
For till eternity calls.....this fight ours to claim!
