I struggle through snow.
Wind whips my face as i dig
a grave for my friend.

As i bury my
spade in the earth a thought
persists in my head:

Why is it that the
good ones of us are always
the ones who die first.

I want to kill them.
I want to kill them in ways
that would make hell weep.

But if i did that,
i'd be no better than them.
We'd both deserve death.

No, it's honour that
fuels the raging flame of hope
and lights this dark world.
On the right path, but the wrong medication.

I like how there's a thing that displays how long you've logged in to the forums. It shows just how many hours you've spent here, never to get back...

Tales of friendship
Sorrow and struggle and loss
Are such sweet sorrow

Deep in the mountain,
our great colony will thrive,
but outside we die.

My typical experience, a la haiku:

Obtained prisoner,
harvested all the organs,
sold to a slaver.

And from that prisoner's point of view:

A leg and an eye,
a kidney, and a lung too.
What more will you take?

Freedom. For silver,
I was sold. I wait. I fear.
Alone in darkness.
