~I'm new so please forgive me, just thought I'd make an offering of a bit of the rhyme floating about in my head.~
"Immortal"
"Throughout the ages, we have walked.
Memories filling countless pages, through shadows we have stalked.
We've loved and lost and carried on,
Through heat and frost we've watched you spawn.
Time stands still for no woman or man,
So family I've lost, no home and no clan.
We've watched you struggle through plague, famine and war
Bathed you have in the blood and gore.
Temples you've ruined, knowledge you've burned,
cities you've sacked and nothing, you've learned.
Immortals are we, watchers of time,
We all agree, you've passed your prime.
So from the shadow we will watch, through time and history
Forever we will be to you, a story, a mystery."
