Secretive, hidden and unknown
A world which has no hope
Elders so powerful and strong
No battle causes them any harm
Wise and mysterious
Know what you may not
A map within their mind
Unknown to what others sought
Clever to the extent
They know what you will do
Eliminate any threat
Acting on their cues
Their robes so black, their hidden from sight
Hoods covering their faces
Never know when something’s not right
Blend in the darkness
Eyes at all places
Their ears listen, to every conversation
They are there but also not
They are blind but do see
They carry scars on their hands
From the first battle that sprung free
They suffer from the darkness
Despair surrounds them
They are empty bodies, no emotion left within them
Their eyes are deep black holes; you lose yourself when you look
Their mouth stitched to hold every secret at every crook
They take sacrifices, telling people they are saving them
But deep within, it’s only themselves that they help
Dead bodies that have rose, from the graves of warriors
A person may not know, guardians are a living nightmare
Blood shed, knife thrust, gun shot, life gone
Loud cries, tears shed, hope lost, life dead
Up, down, left, right, lose control, lose right
Unbearable pain, terrifying screams
Shake me to the extent as I see their memories
Never know anything
Never see or hear
The guardians only reveal
To a sacrifice they seal
Bound to this chair, forced to witness
The death and despair
They have to live with
They circle around me
Forming a star
One by one, swords are bought
Shining tip brought on my head
A sacrifice for them
Is what my life has led
Control, take over and kill
Give me no choice or will
The blades strike my heart
Close my eyes, bracing for the fall
Knife piercing in, life gone
Guardians kill, embracing what’s been done
