"soul bound items"

all those items
of past instances
that you once treasured
and bound tightly to your soul
Have slowly fallen away,
one by one forgotten
golden talismans
that burned brightly
you held fast
against the darkness rising
up in loneliness and despair
your armor buckled
and sword kept true
to slay the beasts
that waited for you,
in the night
patiently, to come home
but you strayed too far
and stayed too gone
your treasures downgraded
to souvenirs and post cards
of past sunlit instances you lost in transit
on the downward spiral to your final destination
all those soul-bound items you left behind
have faded from neglect
and tarnished with rust
once radiant glories now dying candles
burning faintly in dim memorium
of all those past instances.
