Good morning. Every day is an opportunity. Gotta keep telling myself that. A child, faced with a monster, closes their eyes. What do they do when they’re still there in the dark behind their eyelids? What do you do when you close your eyes but you can still see those things you find most terrifying? Grab your little toy hammer and grasp it tight. Face them down. First and foremost, you are your own protector. Become a hero to yourself and you will find peace.
Die Helden von Einst
that’s where i want to be
not waiting to see
not fleeing, but flying, steadfastly alighting
my course, ever self righting
all’s well that ends well
building a boat
rise above the ocean swell
never to glean, never to gloat
a good man
realizing how i ran
never again
to find in others, that sacred glen
i find my peace
whence from me, you’ve taken a piece
amidst ancient stones, druidic hymn
not for him, just for him
Going east
searching for the beast
in the forest, hearing birdsong
i know the journey ahead will be long
Enduring quest
runic test
training and straining
the beast’s strength never waning
and with my spear and shield i trudge on
ever further, unto the dawn
drawing strength from heroes past
knowing my line will not be the last
von Helden komme ich
und Held werde ich sein
