I have a brilliant moon in my heart
It has controlled the tides for quite a long time
I need to enlighten her regarding the chilliness of the waves
The briskness of the ocean wind and my yearning for the shore
Be that as it may, I can't utter a word...
I'm simply a dim reef
I have stirred and nodded off many times.
Time is a line in my eyes, at the edge of the ocean
I long for the earth to rise or sink
To carry me nearer to paradise or damnation
Or on the other hand to give me a sharp lightning bolt
To part me open and let my heart come around once more
Whenever the moon rises, I turn upward and gaze
Abruptly there is quiet around me, and the mermaid's tune expands
The far off heart of the earth gets me - I am a slug
With a long period of time of forlornness ready to strike
I've attempted to point toward any path
Yet, every one of the spots reachable are daydreams of greatness
Ocean birds and mists fly by, leaving shadows briefly
Destiny has outlined my deep rooted quiet entrapment

Llion the Brave Version 2
Her screams diminished as Llion was dragged away from the cell. The stench in the corridor was less but there was still damp, decay, defecation, death. His feet dragged, like a raggedy puppet, the guard either side of him holding him fast. He could feel their individual fingers digging into his scant flesh, leaving their impression on his bones.
