Tres Ombres

by The Invisible Boy   Jun 16, 2008


Three trees appeared on the hill
Three shadows moving in the wind
Three figures would not stay still
Three hoods moving at their own will

The battle within was the battle of all
The ship journey up until we lost
The little boy stalked by shadows
Until their hoods revealed their faces
Their fair hair flowing in the wind

"Come with us" the voices said
"Come with us" his time was up
All that was left for the giant was lise
Now the shadows were gone and so were the trees

The villains on the ship
The shadows followed the trip
The boy was caught
But the battle was fought
The man knew that one day he would see again
The three lines gave him the strength to fight the pain

    That was fantastic,
    you painted an extravagant
    picture, filled with such life, but death
    as well. Beautifuly put, great job, 5/5.
