Poem
The Battle There was a girl who had a Beast upon her tears he liked to feast. He made her mind a prison cell within his darkness she did dwell. Through the years she tried to flee but an escape she couldn't see. In blackness, thicker than the night she prayed to find a guiding light. When her darkest hour came she prayed to finally end this game then through the tears that marred her sight she saw a candle burning bright. Armed with her words and shield of prayers she found the Beast among her fears and with a battle cry of yore she told the Beast, "That's it, no more." "You've taunted me for my whole life filled me with your pain and strife. You stabbed my heart and clawed my mind and with your darkness made me blind." "You've tried to kill the dreams I dreamed you broke my will, or so it seemed. Now let me go, just let me be your reign is over, SET ME FREE!" With seething anger in his eyes the Beast answered her battle cries. His evil laugh dripped with disdain for this, he'd break her with his pain. He started spewing his retort but all at once he was cut short for in her hand a sword appeared forged with her pain and all she feared. It was her moment of reprise and looking deep into his eyes she stabbed the Beast with all her might then witnessed an amazing sight. You see, the Beast was very large and he had always been in charge but now, to both of their surprise the Beast began to shrink in size. He tried to scare her with his rage as she put him in a cage. She bound it well and locked it tight and keeps him always in her sight.
