The Forgotten One - projectvxn - 03-19-2022 My name is The Forgotten One. I am the one who long ago swore an Oath to stand. I pray only for steady hands. My name was Justice and you have granted me my gift of sight and now all I see is your color, your day and night, your black and white. Today my given name is Spite. My name is Honor. I stood in front and swallowed fate. I carried Our Name and flew Our Flag above their mountains on a glorious day. I will always carry that weight. My name is Truth and I've been caged so long it seemed I'd never be free. But here I am and you can't stop me. I'm here to shed light in this darkness and topple this Tyranny. It was my duty before I was even born, you see. My steady hands will set me free. My name is Liberty! I have broken all your shackles and before you stands a wall of living men whose blood I have claimed for me! Yet I am no thief. I only ask for the price you're willing to pay to be free. My name is Death. I am a monument to the faded memory of what's left. I am the world at peace after the last drop of blood comes to rest. I am relief for a broken heart, the left behind in the dark; I am respite for restless souls who've traveled a step too far. I am The End. I am the bedrock of beginning. I have carried you so far. I am the Forgotten One who carries your weight with steady hands and I will never let you fall. From the pieces of your shame I will mold bricks for your wall. I will stand upon it and be a forgotten shield battered on behalf of us all. |
