Can't Reverse What's Done by BattleAxeViking, literature

Can't Reverse What's Done

No point in pretending, I know what I've done. No way of defending, The evil within.So stupid and pointless, In wasteful frustration. I'm thrown into darkness, By my own wicked deed.You're someone so special, You came because you cared. I asked for one more call, And demanded too much.Now you despise me so, And quite frankly you're right. I'd no right to ask you, There's no excuse for it.All I can say is I'm sorry, so sorry. I'm breaking the pathetic poem off there, because I don't feel an apology can be adequately and properly summarized in verse. I know there's little chance that she'll read this but someone I love has been deeply hurt b...

He'll Kill You

If you've ever had an encounter with the Black Blade and you're still here to tell of it, you either wont be much longer or you were someone he cares about.

Its evil, red stare can be seen in the man's angry eyes. Black Blade is a killer haunted by his battles, his scars burn him like white hot branding irons pressed to his bare skin.Yet he is the answer to one boy's plea to the Gods of old. Protection from any evils at all cost. If the boy is threatened he fights ...

Here She Comes Again

Here she comes again Like a needle in the eye Here she comes again Cocky smirk as she passes byEvery morning I wake up Its the same old start I wish my mind could shut up The thought of her aches my heartHere she comes again Eyes like turquoise fire Here she comes again Throwing another man to the mireShe doesn't care at all About the pain she causes She just stands real tall Until she sees me then she pausesHere she comes again A poisoned bullet through my chest Here she comes again Maybe death is for the bestThis feeling won't seem to leave I love her more than I should I wore my heart on my sleeve Now its locked away for goodHere she co...

Celebration of Odin's Finest and His Victory

The wounded warrior sits in his chair by the window of his small home on the hill. The gentle breeze silently brushes the leaves on the young oak tree next to the path down to the village.A festival is in full swing there, merry people dancing, eating and drink, singing songs of their freedom and the peace that they now look forward to.The warrior gazes out, with his arm in a sling and fresh bandages covering deep slashing injuries to his muscular abdomen. A hand is placed gently on his shoulder. Behind him stands a woman, her face is pale, her eyes a flash of green, her hair a light copper, hanging down over her shoulders in long, thick b...

Should I?

I hold the lighting torch to my own funeral pyre. The moment I drop it I'll be engulfed by the fire, the life of one so desperate and hurting will begin to ebb away. The world will be rid of another pathetic soul.How many friends would weep? How many eyes would be clouded by tears and hearts ache?Is it really a life wasted if that life has done nothing to make the world a better place?I stand on the pile of fuel for the ending over my existence, with the voices speaking in twisted tongues telling me that being finished with it all is worth it. The darkness of my mind is my only companion, the dim light with which I see the world is not eno...

Monster In My Cage by BattleAxeViking, literature

Monster In My Cage

There he sits in the cage, a voluntary prisoner. Locked up because he's afraid of his own capabilities. The cage was designed for one slightly smaller than him, his hulking frame fills the space inside as he sits, quietly meditation. I find it almost impossible not to stare at him at times, waiting for sudden movements, or for the bars to bend outward and for him to burst free.His strength is unquestionable, his rage is unmistakable and the darkness can't hide the burning flame in his eyes on the occasions when he sits and stares back at me. He'd kill if he was set loose, as he has done before. He's a fighting machine, made for battle and ...

Literature

After the Glen Ambush

Snow is coming down heavily as the first light of morning shines over the hill, the sound of hooves echoes in the frozen air as a large black horse with a long white blaze comes to a stop in front of a wood and stone dwelling, bearing a man in armour and thick fur pelts and the lifeless form of another man laid the horse behind him.Across the way in the yard of another wooden house a small boy, no more than three or four years old stops picking up logs to watch the horse and it's passengers. "I don't hear chopping, Siggy" came the voice of a man from within the house. "A horse just arrived at the house across, father. It looks like a dead ...

Branching Out?

0 min read

As you'll probably be well aware of by now, the main focus of my writing up to this point has been the Viking era (putting aside the more poetic, dark, emotional stuff that's also there). However, lately my main focus has been my other, slightly less known and until recently on dA, pretty much unknown love - Sci-Fi.I haven't updated my profile in Odin knows how long, but I've loved works by Isaac Asimov and enjoy most film and TV series set in Space, I even chose that setting for one of my FMPs at University.To cut to the chase, I've been pondering the idea of putting some of my Sci-Fi pieces up here on deviantArt. I just don't know if it'...

Apologies.

0 min read

I would like to apologise for the long drought of any submissions on my page. The main reason for this has been a bit of a lack in inspiration and life crap getting in the way of my free time to do much writing. Incredibly weak reasons for not uploading I know but I do plan on putting up some stuff at some point soon.

Eight Months On

0 min read

More than enough time has passed for me to have been able to forget about her by now and yet, I wake up today as early as 4:00am because the nightmare in my head had finally taken a turn away from realism. Why the hel can I not just move on? People ask me all the time, friends, family, even my counselor is baffled by my inability to see that there are "more fish in the sea", "better women in the world" and persistently tell me that "you'll find someone, don't worry".What if I have found that one someone and can't let go? I cannot stop loving this one women in particular who I know is no good for me. She hurt me like no other person has eve...
