@Ebony3 I was looking for a poem writer and then I remember that you write them! Thanks for linking your shop in your theme song place! [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=52362191] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/523622/52362191_350.png[/img] [/url] Could I grab something for Zorya? It's her month to be spoiled and spoil her I will. She's got her lore in her bio still but a super quick summary is she works as a Gaoler seeker alongside her mates Serket and Sarruma (same tab as her if you wanna see them) and puts All of her efforts into it when she's on the job. Off the job, she's quite lazy and relaxed and usually just likes to sleep curled up with one of her mates. She's pretty self conscious and a bit self depreciating--due to repeated attacks about her multigaze as a child--but has begun to move past that a bit. If you have any questions feel free to ask, sending payment momentarily!

@Redtiger7736 eeyy I see The Oh Hello's in her bio! Love that band! Oh also - I think Eyes Open by Taylor Swift would make another good song for her
Quote:
How does the saying go?
Sleep with one eye open -
Keep your eyes open
And so I have, so I have
The watched become the watchers
So I've learned, so I learn

Humble beginnings, standing on the outside
I look in - a circle drawn in snow
Firmly on the outside
So I knew, so I know
Desperate for a hand to hold,
A chance to prove the worth I held
And then came you

Break down these walls I've built,
Take a crowbar to the locks, pry apart this guarded heart
Melt me down, set me free
I think I've found what I've wanted
What I've looked for, what I've sought
The watcher become the wanted
The Seekers become sought

I have been found
I have been found
I have been found

@Ebony3 Gonna be honest, I nearly cried with that poem?? Those last two verses are stunningly emotional and absolutely perfect for her, I adore it...

Also, Youtube has been violently shoving The Oh Hellos at me for weeks and I finally took a look, absolutely not disappointed! They have a bunch of really nice songs, I need to find a good dragon for Thus Always To Tyrants. Zorya may or may not be getting an entire playlist of songs now, she has more than any of my other dragons and I will probably be adding to her.

@DairenShiren Here you go!
Quote:
Long have the dead been known,
Bones tended, bodies put to rest - to rise again
Grown with the voices of the gone,
Lingering over our tongues
We've learned to spot the spirits - to put the ghosts to rest
We are darkness, we are night

But then,
From the dark there came a dawn,
A rising sun, a rising son
Yellow eyes - sunbeams in the night
Searchlights, lanterns always seeking
And the night withdrew,
As dark always does when chased by the light
And the son followed the sunrise

Always searching, never finding
All the questions come without answers
The dead stay where they lie and do not speak
With dusty tongues to me
Instead I speak the sun, the langue of dawn
And though I hide beneath darkness,
The light, it finds away

And I must ask myself -
What is darkness if not, another kind of light?

@Redtiger7736
Very glad you enjoyed the poem! It was a joy writing it!
Also, if you enjoy The Oh Hello's and Of Monsters And Men, I suggest you check out the Paper Kites - I think you'd enjoy them too! Zorya is definitely worth a playlist - actually......I found one more that'd work for her - Pluto by Sleeping at Last

@Ebony3 Oh! I've heard of them! I think I've listened to a couple of their songs, I really love Bloom and Willow Tree March--I'll have to listen to more of their music. Sleeping at Last is another band I know and love, their new album (atlas year 2) has been a huge source of inspiration for writing, I'll add pluto to her list! (also probably gonna pop in for another poem tomorrow, not sure for who yet)

They say that scars mean healing,
I've never believed it - scars are scars.
Not battles won, not ones survived
Just marks upon our skin
And those upon our hearts are always worse

Some one needs to stand against the dying of light
So take up your bow and fill your quiver
And when the hunt comes, stand tall
Shoot straight, shoot true
Now is no time for jokes or weakness

You've gone where I cannot follow,
There is no home without you - no peace for me
I have more scar tissue then heart,
Lock the weakness away
Face another day without you
You wouldn't want this for me
I know, I know

I have no love for cowards,
Spineless fools with broken promises
That let others die for them
I've carried this armor for so long, so long
Hating her won't bring her back
And yet I still do
