Absent surety fell from mountains
to find obscurity mistaken
for destiny's forever fountains
with purpose never to awaken
At world's end I found my only creed
within semi-circle behind me
though soon reality disagreed
more than a heart could ever foresee
Now banished to cruel metropolis
where crowded din bleeds profusely
in whispers from each necropolis
of circumstance defined so loosely

I love this poem, it's so rich in vocab and imagery. I loved your use of the word metropolis, never heard anyone else use it [Unless you class watching Smallville as someone using it, but that's a name of a place, so it doesn't count]. Wonderfully worded & woven
