  1. “I am Nyneve”

    I am Nyneve.
    I wonder how Pelleas is.
    I hear nothing of him.
    I see nothing of him.
    I want to go to him.
    I touch the water, but I cannot see.
    I pretend he is sleeping here next to me.
    I worry each day, for I fear he is slipping from me.
    I feel much heartache, for he is still not here.
    I cry as I watch the White Falcon flying toward me. Alone.
    I understand now, but it is hard to say so.
    I say he will return, but my own faith is slipping. Nonetheless,
    I dream of the day that I watch him, riding his horse back to me.

  2. I Am Mordred

    I am Mordred.
    I see fear in people’s eyes when they look at me.
    I am no murderer.
    I want to see King Arthur live.

    I hear the sound of harps.
    I wish I knew how to play them.

    I feel the ocean’s spray.
    I long to be at peace.
    I worry I won’t be able to fight my fate.
    I cry out to whoever will hear to help me fight this internal war.
    I will not give up, I will not give up, I will not give up.
    I wonder if I’ll live through this.

  3. i am Arthur Pendragon
    i wonder when the time will come
    i hear the tales of the hell
    i see the boy, quick and noble
    i want to die for my people
    i pretend that faith will help us
    i feel the pain of my struggle
    i love my son, but can’t help him
    i worry if i am worthy
    i cry on may day for my people
    i understand ther is no escape
    i say to myself how to save my kingdom
    i dream of merlin and his tales
    i am arthur, bringer of hell

  4. I am Mordred
    I her that people hate me
    I want to know how to fix this
    I feel lost and lonely
    I know I’m not a bad person
    I dream of this ending differently
    I must change my fate
    I believe I can
    I am failing
    I am Mordred

  5. I am Gawain

    I am the brother of Garet and Mordred
    I am the son of King Lothe
    I am the newphew of the Mighty King Arthur
    I desire to be the greatest knight of the Round Table
    I will one day have thrity childern
    I wish the best for Mordred but their is no way for me to help him
    I can only imagine thatone day i could be king
    I have the highest tolerence for pain
    I have my sword at my side always

    I am Gawain

    I am A Murderer
    I am A Bringer of Peace
    I have the ability to act with the most courage and bravery a knight would kill for
    I owe my life to King Arthur
    I understand that the only way i can get revenge for my father is to kill all of Pellinore’s sons
    I can not let the prophecy of my brother Modred come true

    I am Gawain
    I the Bravest Knight of all

  9. I am Arthur
    I hear Melin’s echoing warning, and
    I worry about my safety as well as my honor,
    I want to accept him, but
    I understand why I can not,
    I feel torn between parenthood and leadership,
    I touch him with the tip of my blade, and
    I dream of his becoming an honorable knight, yet
    I know he will betray me,
    I know that he shall die,
    I know that I shall die,
    I am a slave to Merlin’s prophecy,
    I am King

  10. I am King Arthur
    I wonder when and how I’m going to die
    I hear swords clashing
    I see people scared for me
    I want to love my son
    I pretend my fate doesn’t exsist
    I feel dread around Mordred
    I touch my wife Guinevere
    I worry for the sake of my people
    I cry when I put myself in Mordred’s shoes
    I understand Merlin’s prophecies are true
    Isay to heck with my fate
    I dream that one day I could live in happiness with my son Mordred.
