Alone in the Rain

Draw if you be men, these words ring
Alongside the crashes of steel
And blades cutting through flesh sing
As the yells of the dying reel

The blood that once ran through veins
Now tempers our blades and minds
Like all of our horses, attached to their reins
We’re bound by invisible binds

The battle is over, but one thing lives on
It is one thing that will rise again
To think that we all stand together as one
We are standing alone in the rain

Beyond the Known

As we step though the portal, one thing is eerily clear
As long as we are here, we are strangers to this ill-fated world
The echoes of demons and creatures is what we all hear
And the darkened sky full of corruption is what we behold

Hellfire rages to a beat that was lost long ago to few
But it does not forget the many that it forged into its life
When we battle, it seems like we are being created anew
But revealingly there will be no end to this strife

As the demon lords sit on their thrones and laugh
We venture to places that are seemingly unknown
Only to find the few that remember a lesser-walked path
To meet with our grim fate that is embedded in stone

Death’s Commission

The battlefield seems giant
But we still stand defiant
And our victory is not reliant
On us, but our opposition.

The echoes of battles follow
Everyone though tomorrow
And although everything seems hollow
We must always keep our position.

The sound of the cannon follows though
As everything seems to turn blue
And an angel is almost born anew
And death has a new commission.

A Field of My Non-Existent Life

I walk between the bushes and the grass
As I have done many a time before
The leafs that flicker on the trees will pass
A wish that nature always must adore
I see the cattle lay down on the ground
Moving not to any due accord
They sleep and don’t react to any sound
A rest that nobody else can afford
The gravel moves up and around my feet
A rock that is quite large comes up to me
I pick it up and sit down on my seat
And I look around just in time to see
A field of my non-existent life
The rock’s eyes cannot bury any strife

When the World Lies Silent

When the world lies silent,
When the world lies dead,
When humanity's last hope,
is spent.

The heavens shall open,
And the earth shall cry,
As the burning fire,
Rains down.

But from the wreckage,
Some will emerge,
For life will always,
Go on.

Just one I wrote that I can remember off the top of my head there. I have more somewhere.

D'you have to rhyme?

If not here's a poem. It's only one verse, but I wrote it in thirty seconds xD;

I look to my hands and see the dark red blood.
My gaze looks to the rose. The big black rose.
My tears drip to the floor. Pitter Patter.
I'm all alone and the walls are closing in.
I'm screaming for help but noone can hear me.
I'm begging for someone to save me.
No. It hurts. Make it stop.
I close my eyes.
My breathing stops.
Goodbye.

I love writing poetry, and WoW is one of my most prolific sources of inspiration. Not as Crico, he's too much of a self-centered jerk to bother about poetry, unless it is to impress a girl... But my main character Eustachia has written quite a bit.
Anyone who is interested can find her work at http://forum.darkmoon-rising.info/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=27
