Into the night I roam,
demons created in pain and malcontent
close on my heels,
my death they hunger
their master’s only edict.
So many sacrifices,
friendships forged,
only to be lost in the chaos
one piece of gold compelled.
Alone I go,
no one else will I lose
to this mission of futility.
Through war and greed
I travel on.
Into the fire
I must go,
for only then
will this madness end.

To See What I See 
Wow!! I love this!
Thank you. Listening to LOTR soundtracks while I write. So of course I get sidetracked with a poem that has nothing to do with what I’m working on. 😛
Lmao! At least your writing… I have a story bouncing around in my head but I just cat seem to motivate 🙇♀️
Sometimes it’s hard. Sometimes when I can’t get started, I sit down with a pencil and paper and just start writing. Helps.
I’ll give it a shot… 📝 thanks…
