My Dearest Autumn/Winters Daughter (poetry)
My Dearest Autumn
Down comes Autumn, so graceful is her fall
From afar and further I hear her beauty call
Of which many seek but never have any found
They are deaf to her most calming sounds
I hear! Such sweet hymns of unheard lore
She leaves me breathless in blissful awe
I've had a taste but I want to see her all
All of her, Autumn, who's mysterious embrace
May deliver me from this most bitter place
For her my passions endlessly flow
Enlightened by her alluring glow
Is she even within my desperate grasp?
I need to hold her; never will I her let go
Dearest Autumn; this you must know:
That deep inside of me there lays a seed
Of which can accomplish many great deeds
But without you it could never grow

Winters Daughter
Seeking revenge on all who wronged her
In the sea of enemies with her mortar
She's lost it. She won't take any more
The time has come for a righteous slaughter
Standing forth against the oncoming hoard
Is the beautiful but deadly Winters Daughter
Sending forth black clouds of death
A merciless army of Sadistic monsters
No one can escape their horrid grasp
They kill until their very last breath
No one can escape her mighty wrath
Down comes the cleansing rain
There now flows a river of blood
Down comes the hail of merciless pain
The world becomes a puddle of mud
Stupidity has left its stench stain
Now death is all that remains
Why are people so foolish?
They deserved to die
I don't want to hurt people
But they hurt me with their lies
I don't want death
But they put death in my eyes
They took my soul
I took their lives
Everything ended at the start
Since birth she had been braving the dark
Forever waiting to see the light
Since birth she's left her bloody mark
Now she waits for the peace after the fight
The world is saved from the all consuming
All believing and all confusing blight
There hides compassion under her mask
She takes it off to kiss a final goodbye
She opens her clenched fists of smite
To reach out to the illuminating sky
As she falls into her peaceful cask
Winters Daughter can finally rest tonight
~Jarl~
