THE HANDS OF FATE

*Written in the 1990's*

THE HANDS OF FATE


I traveled to the land where thunder lies 

Heard the screams of a virgin sacrifice

Walked through the dark lord's deepest layer

Heard his followers chant his prayer

Ran from this world I couldn't escape

They leave your body, it's your soul they rape

They own your life, even before your death

I suggest you have a plan, when you take your last breath

You'd better start now, before it's too late

The hours creep by, the hands of fate

You're losing your mind, but you’re already insane

You think you hurt now, but you've yet to feel pain

I speak from knowledge, I know this is real

The pain that I've felt, the pain that you'll feel

So consider my words, when you take your last breath

It's your soul in hell, when you enter death

Thank you, Brandon. Definitely different than my usual poetry. I think I realized at that young age that I needed to try and broaden my range of writing abilities. This was one of my attempts at doing so.

Sounds like this can be an interesting conversation, there's a lot ways to describe being spiritually confused or something deeper. Since 2nd grade I was interested in learning about many things Man, Myth & MAJIK was a magazine subscription my dad got me my mom had a book burning party dad thought it was (pull a rabbit out of a hat) type magic lol learning about the occult helped working with teens and young adults especially thru the church

THE PATH TO MY HEART

The Path To My Heart I gave you a map. It led straight to my heart. But you took the paper, And ripped it apart. Did I walk away? No, I lived in the lie. I gave you more chances. I thought you would try. But I guess that my map, Just leads to heartbreak. A pain so damn deep, A chasm of ache. So I’ve made a new map. One just for me. No twists to avoid. It will make me happy. I’ll follow this path. And I’ll take every turn. Till the pain is all gone. And I don’t feel the burn. And I'll reclaim my power. I'll reclaim my light. And I'll finally remember, That I'm worth the fight. Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 7.9.2025

FOOL'S GOLD

  FOOL'S GOLD Never again You won’t see my face The way you treat others Is such a disgrace Your essence is toxic Your lips drip with lies You’re selfish and hateful Beneath your disguise You’re like a fungus A spore or black mold You think you’re a gem But you’re just fool’s gold You’re made up of layers But even snakes shed their skin You’re not only noxious You’re the eighth deadly sin It took at most months And not several years To see how you prey Upon everyone’s fears You find out their secrets Then laugh as you share Breaking their hearts They just laid out bare But here’s a little something  I guess you didn’t know Those others you talk to See how you dim their glow They like themselves more Than they’ll ever like you They’ll have long walked away Before you’ll have your first clue So go wear your charm And spin your tall tales The ship that I’m on Has long set its sails Now I’ve risen up And I’ve slammed the door I won't allow you to imprint On my life  ANYMORE O...

THE TRUTH OF LOVE

  The Truth Of Love Love means giving someone freedom While nurturing your bond And although it is magical It’s not made with a wand It isn’t built on fairy dust Or sealed with just a kiss It takes deep roots and daily care To grow a love like this It’s not control or ownership It’s not a silent war Real love will never cage your wings It will only help you soar It holds you close, yet lets you breathe It lifts, but doesn’t bind It sees your flaws and loves you still With honesty that’s kind It won’t be perfect every day And sometimes it feels tough But even through the hard and raw You’ll know that it’s enough So if you find a heart like this That helps you rise above Then hold it close, and honor it You’ve found the truth of love Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 8.21.2025
