the tale of darkness part 1

  Twas in the days of tyranny.an evil had descended on the lands.there were shadowy figures everywhere. even though the people stood up against this darkness... they were not strong enough.in the kingdom, after kingdom, this cancer spread.for many had prejudice and anger over the last ruler.he was different than the rulers of past.so, the new ruler in obsession is erasing all that he had done.it does not matter if what he did helped this kingdom.all that matters is that he was different.the tyrant and his minions only goal are to punish all that he stood for and all that supported him.he held a deep hatred towards those he deemed different.and so did his minions. he gained power by aligning himself with darkness.with an evil enemy of all who craves freedom.when his minions could not get elected, he used minions in a high ranking post to invalidate their election and put his cronies in.
  those who spoke against him he would call liars.and if someone told the truth about him and showed facts, he called it fake.he knew his minions would believe him no matter what he said or did.even when he hurt them.the more he hurt them, the more they hated people that were different.he blamed them... told his minions they were the blame for the terrible plight they were in. they are the ones causing things to be so hard.he proposed building his great wall... to keep those who were different out of the lands. but in reality ..it was to keep people in. he was going to undermine everything the kingdom stood for.

Being Strong

     Many of my real friends will tell you nothing will bring me down.i had two back surgeries...and one of my friends the day after started joking around,but the said a little thing like a surgery will never bring a mountain down.i have to be strong.there is no one else in my family that really can.i must endure the  pain of my mom and my dad......people think of me a the fortress....but no one knows what it means to be that for everyone around you. it means when your heart breaks....it breaks in silence...a silence so loud so powerful,that the world itself should shake.....it means i have done what others would not...and seen things others could not bare.
     i had to watch as my grand mother took her last breath...and as my grandfather took his...then recently....i had to watch as my father slipped away...if a soul breaking could be heard....the entire  town would have been erased...i loved my father whole....unconditionally...he was my hero...he was what made me me....it was him breaking when i was young that shaped the iron at my core.no one seemed to care....no one stood there for him... his family did not care what he and my mother went through.all was bright sunny days for them.but i saw him when he broke.and it literally destroyed my foundation....so then..i realized i had to be stronger than the mountain,stronger than the strongest metal.for his sake,for mom sake...and slowly i did.
   my father worked with steel.i was so proud.i never really told him.i only got to tell him it was ok ,go home.i am trying to mend and reforge that which is broken...and be stronger for my mom who is dying.some people said some cruel things while my dad lied dying...but they will feel my vengeance.but for now....i have one job...one reason to be...i promise i made to my grandfather and to my dad..to watch over my mom. and i will....then,then...this fortress that has with stood so many storms,so many attacks...can return to its maker.
