Calibur
Edward Burne-Jones [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
A sword of many
Names. Buried
Deep within History
And this sheath of
Unsullied flesh.
*
Within a Lake of
Death and Time
Waiting on a
Unifier to come
And Summon it and me, again.
*
Wise men and Magus
Have spoken of your
Ascendance from birth
Brought by Other to a
Church stationed stone.
*
Pulled deep from the
Womb of rock, you
Ruled using might,
Magic, and Mirth.
Shown to all.
*
Yet, by a son Your
Kingdom and crown were
Broken and defamed but
Though your body was
Distressed, your soul survived.
*
You wait, I wait, and the
Land of Brittany waits for
Your return, but we only
Hear whispers from that
Mystic isle of healing slumber.
*
Maybe the fae still
Sing your lullaby and
I am too far removed to
Listen to Mab, the Weird
Sisters and all.
*
Perhaps, it is just I
Woken from dreaming to
Suffer and writhe, a
Paralyzed Observer to the plagued
Malice of a suffering world.
*
Perhaps, I am punished in a
Waking nightmare, where I will
Wait and wait and wait until
You come to claim your glided Prize,
Lady, and undying Fame.
