Storming my way to the Motherland

Poem submission by alloveryourwood


Storming through these broken lands,
Biting off more than I can chew, oh hands,
For I have deciphered all I can, but I cannot foretell,
What is to come in a fractured dimension, locked in a body cell,
I am what I am, But what I am can never be,
My language is incapable of expressing the power within these cracks, I see,
Like the lone of survivor of my species,
On the brink of extinction,
With extinction on the brink of itself,
I once stormed through these broken lands,
Until the lands stormed and broke through me.
