Limestone's Lament.

The morning has been great so far.

I woke up at the break of dawn and got to do what I do best.

Crush things!

Be it dreams or rocks.

I must smash them into fine smooth dust.

I broke the boulders!

I ravaged the rocks!

I massacred the marble!

Nothing could stand before my mighty hooves!

I would smash and bash!

Crash and slash!

Crumble and tumble!

Rumble and stumble!

Large in charge?

Ha!

More like crushed into mush!

Smooth with a groove?

Try charged into shards!

I will lift a hoof and smash it down!

The cracks!

The cracks!

The cracks I leave upon the ground!

Hahahaha!

Swiftly strike the large granite wall.

Watch the holes build.

Soon it shall fall!

My back is strained.

My body filled with pain.

My heart filled with disdain.

I will stomp upon these stones of earth!

It is my duty…

Given to I at birth.

She was born to bring the parents peace of mind.

Though she never speaks.

Her actions keep them calm.

Must be divine.

She was born to bring the parents pride.

She might be a bore.

But her knowledge and intelligence they do adore.

She was born to bring the parents joy.

She is wild and spirit can soar.

But her laughter, it lights the world.

I was born to a mom.

Whose gaze upon me is that of sorrow.

I was born to a dad.

Whose gaze upon me is filled with strife.

Father told me to destroy.

To break down the land.

To know no joy.

It is my burden.

It is my rite.

I crush the rocks here.

Hidden away from the bright light.

I look to the sky as the sun starts to rise.

Then to the destruction at my side.

Catching my breath.

I can’t muster a scream.

What I destroyed is not rocks.

But my hopes and dreams.

Catching my breath...
