Okay, here is another sad poem. Hope you like it. It's a bit confusing but I like it and I hope you do too! Read and review, it's good for you! No big authors rant here, but I shall tell you I have two fics in the works! One is a Zuko biography (in depth) and one is a Zutara fic, based on a challange someone put up. Hope you'll stay tuned for them. Thanks to all my reviewers, you make my love of writing seem less crazy!
Bedtime
In a darkened room, a child rests
With a guardian at the door
Knowing the child's duties
All the trials he must endure
He wishes he could protect him
From growing up too fast
His job to make him smile
To make the good times last
"Sleep my little boy, my heart's delight
Relax and breathe, and do not fear
Forgot the bounds of duty you bear
You are safe for I am here
No matter what is told to you
You deserve to sit and play
It's my job to protect you
And keep the world away
Don't think about the future
Just dream of having fun
Although I am not your father
I wish you were my son
Dear Gods protect my little lad
Let him know the taste of joy
Despite his grand destiny
Let him be a normal boy "
The guardian rises to leave
Tears make his vision blurred
In the stillness of the night
A childish voice is heard
"Good Night Uncle" says a prince
A child born of the war
"Good night Gyasto," says a monk
A hundred years before
