Danced in Fire

Stand in all my power
unfolded like some flower
but deadlier than any bloom
who ask of me, but all say, "Whom?"

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

the power lives in me;
the power that is me.

Strength and mystery sheathed in steel-
what is false and what is real?
Once was here and now is not,
what has the Atlantean prince begot?

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

the power lives in me;
the power that is me.

Shadows glint off hunter's eyes
glowing green as they spot the prize
Juunishi's will unable to thwart
that which found a home in sport

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

the power lives in me;
the power that is me.

I see you've never tasted fear,
excepting now that I am here.
Limbs of steel shall guard thy sleep,
sleep ye longer, death is deep.

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

the power lives in me;
the power that is me.

The shadow of myself, just who am I?
One whose desperation leads to try
to find a new solution to the mystery
but return to my true identity:
the power that is me

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

the power lives in me;
the power that is me.

You try to take me down,
it's time to start the show,
it's seems you've never tasted fear
or loss of control
And now you see

We all danced in fire,
trapped in this machine,
don't know how long I've waited
as our maker watches
We all danced in fire
looking through the screen
don't know how long we've waited
as our maker watches

and no one knows the key
to the power that is me.

Author notes

OK, I am listening to a song from Sonic Heroes and one of those songs (This Machine) goes almost perfectly with one of my characters, so I had to mess around with it. Most of the verses are my own, though.

Please tell me what you think

    Hey, i do love this poem, but it is just a little too long for my contest. If you could correct that and get back with me, i would love to judge it. Thanx and good luck.
