Linking Stars
"Fate, a predetermined destiny assigned by an all-knowing being, is just a blatant claim meant to bolster one's drive towards a goal."
Do we expect heroes to be valiant warriors,
Vanquishing monsters with courage victorious,
Leaving the sunset with the damsel in distress,
Or is it someone more unexpected, we must confess?
What lies in a bright, joyful world,
Also comes darkness, tragedy unfurled,
Self-hurting monsters that crawl and thrive,
Inside your deepest trauma, they come alive.
Our most powerful enemy lies beneath ourselves,
We create our villains, from our inner shelves,
We are the villains, through actions impressed,
Our actions have repercussions, as fate is addressed.
Weapons come in different shapes and forms,
Sharp and strong, yet the most powerful storms,
Are the losses of friends, our families dear,
Stronger than any blade's angry tear.
Beneath the night sky, stars intertwine,
Creating constellations, in patterns divine.
Some see mere beauty, a sight for sore eyes,
Others see techniques, where combat lies.
These stars, like people, bond and unite,
Their strength in connection, a radiant light.
A sunflower and a black rose, side by side,
Coexisting, finding bonds, where threats reside.
Cherry blossoms, sizzles, azaleas too,
Anemones surround, providing support true.
Each with their weaknesses, together they stand,
Is it destiny, or fate’s gentle hand?
As the universe moves, slowly they meet,
Blades deciding fates, the challenges they greet.
In a garden of struggle, where each flower grows,
They find strength in unity, against all foes.
