, Poems of Cathasaigh (aka Casey Webber)

Sins desire I exist, full of sin. I desire purity, but will not expel the darkness within. I search for a cure, for my sin and my desire as my world crumbles I refuse to accept what fate has ordained I cannot bring in the light, even once darkness has left me now I wander alone, neither pure nor having sin alone for all eternity Bardic poem The Heroes charge, The Gaill belch their fire the earth bleeds, Ficna has Fallen, the finnian knights fade, and darkness covers the land Perspect I walk in the valley of giants who look up at me, for reasons I can t see, what have I done for my fellow man to have earned tears upon my departure. the last of the !lan has done nothing they deserves remembrance, and has earned no ones love. why then am I looked upon by others. Forgotten soul "as I Gallant or Greedy, prosperous or pauper, I have Forgotten. I once knew and so did all who looked upon my stone, but soon it cracked and shattered, #ow I can only $uestion what I thought I knew. sorrow once living in content, behind the walls now we learn of the outside. of the blood flooding the streets and what i believed in other face% why was i intact, while others innocence washed away in the flood% now only anger is carved in the stone, only plants nurtured by sorrow grow

The language never spoken a whisper of a wind, a word of a people who never, lived% the cry of a dead bird, tears that were not shed. &lone, desiring that which cannot be had, watching the word past by, a song not meant to be played, a language never spoken. To stand the stars tell a tale, I know it is my fate, to bow to kings from a far, but I shall stand defying the spirits, and fight to the end. I may be of no power, but I will not bow no title - Conflicted to accept the chains that bind me, i whither away, to do what i must do and to except that some must stay, tears shed and blood spilt. I have left where I belonged, where i go now, I cannot say. Final ride The light fades, but darkness does not advance, It is gone, It s mysteries solved not by good or light, but those that would not could not, bellieve in light, &nd so the light dies, forgotten, "here have the heroes gone, neither purity nor decedence rule, I wish i could 'oin them, the lords of twilight on their final ride The drought water once flowed down the stream, now we have drought, song once 'umped from our lips, now there is only sorrow, the lyre sits collecting dust, when will the 'oyful songs return.

Lancer His steeds hooves stands upon ancient ground, crows circle in the sky, lance in hand he waits, for what he does not know Africa & land untouched, pure, desecrated by the flames of hate tears spill upon the earth% & child taken from it s home, loved for, for years now abandoned and left to its fate a land of beauty, a land of grace a land of darkness and of sin. Farewell Traveling to a distant land, (ou met )ards and friends, They 'oined you in your *ourney, #ow your Travels end, Farewells are said and tears shed, )ut good+byes never last forever and soon your paths will cross again

The days of old ,h for the age of old, "hen -ove sick -ancelot saved the $ueen, ,h for days of song, "hen )ards protected from evil, ,h for days of beauty, "hen The wi.ards made )lodeuedd, ,h for days long gone, that fade into dream. Tuareg during the night you are confined to your leather cage, but as sun rises you are drawn,, you appear to glitter mimicking the sun, as you are cut into by black gold runes you are dull now, blood no longer stains your soul and yet tired and old you are more beautiful then ever before.

No title eath !arch The sword is drawn and we march, fire rains down upon the land, the sky turns red, and the only one who en'oys this day, is her ladyship death The Sun /un beats down upon the ground, breaking through the sky s grey veil revealing a glistening blue sky the earth goes from darkness to light as colours expel the night that covered them I stare up into the sky0 as clouds sail by. 0 note &&1gh when looking up into the sky make sure the sun is not above you, it burns r"#eideggers e$periment lost is his discovery, the madman mourns in this world, He thought it would bring hope and return lost love, but some things should remain as they are he learned, for now all he once knew is gone No title%li&e padd's lamentation( our home is left behind we sail to find a name, I abandoned all I knew and loved,, "hen i land% the promise is found to be a lie the natives put a gun in my hand and send me of to a foreign war. No title The Ne)er-ending Searcher -ong have I, the lonely spirit wandered the land, from Green plains to high peaks I search, for what I don t now, no one takes notice of me and no one can tell me, when my 'ourney began and what I seek. No title- *one *one *one The sun has gone into darkness "hy has the knight ridden away have they abandoned us as the foul beast consumes the stars, we are alone, as the blackness turns towards us, do we fly, or do we stand and die. Searching

&lone I search, for things long gone, following codes forgotten in time, trying to bring back what was, the stars a line in the moons shadow, but destiny will not reveal itself I remain alone, part of what is long gone I search for help from mountains to 2oore /word in hand I wander the land, I am alone with no more tears to cry 2arooned in time, never able to belong.

The +hite haired ,eaut' /he walks down the streets in her black robes The crows follow her through the night "ilted black roses grow where she steps &nd the living lock the doors to her /he is the white haired beauty I lie on the road waiting for her to embrace me I love her more then I can bear and I fear her 'ust as much /he stops and looks down upon me, my lips $uiver /he sheds a black tear and whispers in my ear 3#ot yet my love, you have more to suffer before, I will take you for myself.4 /he places a black rose on my heart and kisses me passionately. I stay there soaked in my pain The white haired maiden walks away 5eath will not embrace me in her arms tonight I must remain, alone and unloved upon this world The Sa,er 6nderneath the statue I lie In my hand a broken /aber as I wait knowing I will die I look up at her for I am out of favor as the dark figures walk away I shall stay, loyal to her The worlds loyalties $uickly sway I am alone with neither lord nor sire I the )ardic soul trapped in this place &s I lie in this land of the 5amned and sorrow everyone has turned their face but I have refused to follow and as the last raven lands on me, I find that I alone stand by the lady who is blind

No title +ar is Not the Answer The Towers rise from our hallowed hills our relics are shattered and broken the forest burns the mountains shrink The land weeps and i only watch the )utcher comes with his men our spears and swords are broken &ll who stand fall in his fire the savages now rule the land &ll that I love is put into chains I must swear to a king I have never known of I can watch no longer we grab our broken blades and march to war we the warrior pets have set our fate our home has fallen to those who brought guns, fire and chains. No title Beaut' is Truth towers reign above the ground the flowers bloom as all the beauty reaches for the sky I stand in this beauty I can only admire her beauty #ature is truly the essence of beauty in this world all is lost ,nly in darkness can we find hope only in death may we find peace only in the past can we find honor as the shadows creep away all is lost, the lovers live no more. The path the road ahead splits which path do I take down that of safety and beauty or that of honor and righteousness and risk of 5amnation what do I take the sword or the harp I look back to days long gone for the answer I look on without answer I must make this choice alone

"hich path do I take on my road

The Two Faced Angel & being flies through the sky, one face an angel the other, a 5emon most see one , face and bow or the other and grow hatred for it. I am cursed to see both, do I bow to what I hate most, or do I draw sword against what I love /o 5early Two -nights Two knights stand on a field one in gleaming and one in woad the horns blow, the war cries call.
