Tale of Revenge

By Mithiras

I remember that tragic day
I remember it as if it were yesturday
The day you took away from me
All that was dear to me

I journied countless miles
Travelled across countless plains
Searching, wandering, looking
Anything could be a sign

Evading me time after time
Here you stand with your deeds
Your life hanging by a thread
Your soul is in the fate's hands

Through my journies I've learned much
Learned about bravery, honour, and revenge
Much blood is shead needlessly each day
In causes so pointless and wasteful
But my revenge is one of merit

That day, that tragic day
The hunting season was that day
And everthing was taken away
Everything except my life was taken that day

You say you are not the cause
You tell me someone else was in charge
I remember with my own eyes what you did
My house burnt to ashes along with my life

I have found you now as you cower away
Though you are a coward you will die the same
I will make sure your soul will suffer my pain
Your life ending in the pits of hela's domain

I did not choose this for you
It is the God's choice
I am just their herald and chosen
Just as the God's chose for you to be born
I will chose for you to be unborn

That day, that terrible day
You took everything that day
From which my fate was unmade
And here the tragedy is laid

You try to wiggle away
Like the worm I know you are
But you can't escape my fury
For you know it is already set in stone

I will take your head from your shoulders
I will follow you to every end of the world
Your life will end by my hands
I swore this that fateless day

You may try to run
But it is already chosen
Now is the time for your life to end
But what has befallen me?
A tragic ending to you and me?

That tragic day, oh tragedy
Once all lost, Lost is all
In the darkness my soul will fall
What is really the true tragedy

You have escaped me again
But forever I will follow you as I promised
Forever you will have to run
Run and cower from my rightful sword

The rights of my revenge is just
Set by our elders in an age long lost
Our northern fathers were always true to their word
And I will show to them that our ways are not gone

I will find you again
This time I will end it
End the chase, this game of cat and mouse
Your life will be gone
And my revenge will be complete

Woe that tragic day
Soon I will see them again
The day you took them all away
My family I will see you again

    Lmfao, sadly I left it open for something else. I'm thinking of making a story about it. Thats why it's open ended with no resolution.
