A new poem.. after 4 months.. I guess.

Calloused and Bound
By KZBPascual

They raise their glass to much delight
now that you've come home as bright as the stars at night
like a hero celebrated by his people
after defending his city from the enemy's assault.
Even the wicked would bow their heads down;
the demented would relinquish his frown
for a wonder you now are,
from the muds of the undersight, you've arise.
Should I have crossed your path, condemned I would be
as I am no worthy of your apathy.
What for was it that I paid with my hopes?
Ah! It was for the once shadow to be crowned with sun's gems.
Look how fate turned the wheel
for an audacious call to be given heed.
