By Elhewitt

I was chained but not broken,
beaten but not bowed.
The fire marked my silence,
the storm made it loud.
I do not kneel for tyrants,
nor gods who curse the flame.
My name was born in thunder
and I rise to wear that name.
Let them come with shackles,
with blades and masks of war.
I have walked through death already
and I do not fear it anymore.
