Chaos

Abdicate this bloody throne,

Sons take the reins alone,

Honeyed words from snakes in the grass,

The youngest speaks true but it seems crass,

Banish the truth it offends to hear,

Watch as hope walks out all held dear,

The snake slithers up your spine,

Snaps in half hapless decline,

A warlord who trampled enemies no mercy,

Expects his kin to prove themselves worthy,

Ghosts from the past rise up to claim,

All the riches are sold as well as fame,

Try to retain a fragment of respect,

Those once trusted keep you in check,

Pick apart your flesh while you still live,

Taken for granted all your flesh did give,

One by one the allies disappear,

Till you are confronted by your greatest fear,

Seek refuge in lands once conquered,

Evil sons rally to sow their dishonor,

The clouds loom ominous as death approach,

A wicked wind spawns demon reproach,

Walls tumble as the fortress burns to ash,

Sole survivor with no means to crash,

Madness stricken the enemies will spare,

Desolate dirge to sing in despair,

Apparitions of foes once slain arise,

Tear at your mind like carrion flies,

A beacon of light as the good son takes flight,

Task to reunite with a father in plight,

Armies will rally to seek for blood,

A sniper reaps doom with drowning flood,

The house collapses as everyone dies,

A blind man on the precipice with torn out eyes
