114. Protein

I used to be weak and scrawny. I was deficient in calcium. No muscle, no brawny My heart was weak, Skin pale and bleak. Life brought me depression, Until I found food that gave me reason. If I wanted to be pumping iron, I had to sink these teeth Into Daeznutz lmao gotem

113. Satisfied

I would crawl to get out of bed, I would tiptoe throughout my day, I would run on empty for so long. I'd take delicate steps, Planned out routines, To navigate my maze Until my fingertips caught fire. I touched the webs that had me Caught in an intricate trap And I burned it all down My sudden change may seem random, But this chaos isn't arbitrary. I'm simply returning to my sanctum Of no longer being cautionary. When my breaths are longer, When my breaths are fuller, My body ignites as embers To stew a meal full of wonders.

112. Nights Watch

The cold covers me In a blanket of shame. Working in the shadows Casted by the sun hitting your kingdom, This is my punishment for misdeeds Giving up my romance, To save yours. I am in service To let you dance I draw my sword for no cheers, Only to cut my self of past tears. I lay awake at night to keep watch. My shield is raised To be the wall That stops nightmares From invading dreams The crows caw call us To sing this hymn that's sang Throughout the monastery. They're only words to beat us down, To keep us from being redeemed. Until someone here wakes up, And we remember what it is to live again
