Entrapping his soul in the ecstacy of their lies
unable to fathom a grim future
the fog begins to lift from his mind
now he sees what he has done
the destruction of the world by the hands of men
trampling the flowers in the fields now red with blood
weep for the world torn asunder
A would-be king sits upon his throne of dirt
his subjects have gone, he is alone
the life extinguished from his eyes
his life the prize he no longer values
upon his knees he falls
and prays for the heavens to take them all
This shroud of secrecy encasing a silent betrayal
in love trust was forsaken
he did not see it was all by his hand
in his ignorance he killed them all
the smashing of gates
the clashing of steel
hollow the rings in his ears
as his betrayal returns to spill the blood from his throat

I like the poem.
I hope you are not reffering to me... but even if you are... a good poem still.

You are not your job, your titles, your possessions, your degrees, your lovers, your relationships, your place of residence, your social security number, your ID, your bills, your worries, your bank account, your age or your body. You are the timeless being that created & perceives itself through those things, and you have the power to play or not play that game. When someone asks me "what do you do?" looking for some title to pin me down, I laugh and say "EVERYTHING!" - Blackout

If I remember correctly, it was after hearing a friend play this death metal he is obsessed with.
Technically I guess it isn't as much poetry as much as it is creative writing, I'm not sure I would call myself a poet. *shrug*
