Out of Many, One! Part 2

The Short Poetic Story

Godfather89
It all starts out as fire, burning away at my world.

The Monuments Fall and Tributes End, Only Chaos Ensues.

My Heart Aches and My Mind is Splintered

I hear the voices in my mind saying "this must be right and that must be wrong."

The feelings in my heart kill me and I am sickened, all comfort ends.

My Old World Is Gone burned away by fire, the rest charred and useless.
I must make do with what remains, death has come and done its worst, all is quiet and bleak.

I begin to pick up the pieces of the old world, in my journey I find things that the old world never knew.

This novelty is powerful but the old is what I had grown used to.

Curiosity takes the best of me and I begin to forge a new world.

My Curiosity has shown me something that the old world kept me in fear of.

At the entrance to my new world says "E Pluribus, Unum ". I have grown powerful; look survivors have come to marvel at my new world, they begin to worship me.

The old world was about worshipping, so disgusted I was by their actions, I told them to stop and I showed them how to build a new world.

My Work and Determination saw me through, I have built a new world one better than the old one.

I have built much but my world is vulnerable, in time this world will remain charred and useless by the very same fires.

The old world I was a part of made me worship things outside of me, it did not ask, it forced me by fear.

I know now, that I am timeless and homeless, worlds may end but I am still here.

In times of Difficulty, I draw my strength.
In times of Uncertainty, I draw certainty.
In times of Quiet, I find myself.
In times of Melancholy, I become motivated.
In Times of Fear, I embrace Chaos.

Only one question remains, where does one build their new world?

Yet, I know that I must build by the grounds of the underground river.
