*Nala's Thoughts, when Simba disappeared*

Where Is He?
by Eben Prentzler

What is this news I hear
There is sadness in the air
A king has died, one so dear
That goes to prove that life is not fair
Where is he? Could he be dead?
That is what everyone said
I can't believe that this is true
So I know exactly what to do

Here I am at the place of the dead
The air is still filled with dust
Where king and son were to be found they said
I have to find him, I just must
Where is he? Could it be?
There is not a body to see
I really don't think he's dead
I think we must have been mislead

A long time has past
Everything is dry and gone
I knew this would happen at last
Now I wonder what I've done wrong
Where is he? He must be dead
It must be true what everyone said
I'm going crazy, I can't cope
I must find some help or all will lose hope

*Some of Simba's Thoughts*

Price Of Pride Rock
--------------

-----

by Eben Prentzler

Some say "I don't know anything"
But I spoke with him everyday
He said "I don't know the laws"
I listen to him only if I have to
Now he said "I can't get to my lessons on time"
But I've got nothing better to do
Everyone says "I don't pay my dues"
Why do you think I have no time anymore?

If this is the new way
I'll be gone everyday
And my whole life will be grey

Now you say "I hurt you deeply"
But who hurted who first?
And now you say "You wouldn't kill you uncle?"
Luckily I know, I'm not like you
Are you saying "I could't be the King Of Pride Rock"?
So tell me, you are the one who murdered my father...right?

Now I know the truth
And I have the proof
You most likely know you have goofed

Can you put a price on Pride Rock?

Pride Rock sells, but who's buying?
The hyenas...No!
You...No!
Me...No!
I'm taking it back
And that dear uncle is a fact.

*Zira...through and through*

Hate Queen
-----

-----

by Eben Prentzler

The Queen of all evil
Her lips could poison your soul
This temptress' stare makes you freeze
Now the priestess roars to get you on your knees

By the rites of her say
You'll obey her every day
This spellbound character ain't kind
A helpless son surrenders his mind

Just a look in those lustfull eyes
Then you can say your last goodbyes
With the terror grin sinking in your mind
The evil of the Hate Queen.

With desires of flesh within
This lioness will enslave him
Another heartbeat, cold as stone
The sound of her claws break bone

Beware she stalks you at night
The Hate Queen will give you a fright
Those lips only releases lies
For a hidden love will kill in disguise.

*NON-TLK related poem*

The Word Love
by Eben Prentzler
Dedicated to two wonderfull people...Nanaki and Pilgrim.

It seems like only yesterday
You were next to me
With love being everything they say
You are the light in the darkness which makes me see

Now we have parted once again
Hey, I don't feel so good,
Suddenly all feels like rain
Putting everything in a terrible mood

Something is not right
Something is coming over me
I know I must hold out, I must fight
But I still keep on thinking "How could this be?"

I really miss the feeling of you by my side
I still can't believe you're gone
It almost felt like I just died
My only hope is that you won't be long

You are the one for me
You always remind me of a high soaring dove
But I'll wait for you, you'll see
Because the only word that comes to mind is "Love"

*Impact Of TLK*

A Changed Life
By Eben Prentzler

As each day was gone
I was still alone
How could this be?
Nobody even saw me

What was I?
An easy to hit target
They'd try anything to make me cry
But one thing gave me the courage to forget

This thing made me see
That there someone else I could be
Someone living in his own private world

So what is this thing that makes me rhyme?
This thing that sends shivers down my spine
I can only say five words, that make me sing
Long Live The Lion King!

*Scar's thoughts before dying*

A Last Thought
by Eben Prentzler

Am I paranoid?
Or are these enemies or false friends
And the end is right around the bend

My air is getting thin
I'm in trouble for things I did
This is a battle I can not win

It feels like the walls are closing in,
There are bloodstains on my paws
Because I commited a terrible sin

This was my life
This is my fate
There is nothing left to say
Now it is time to pay

*These are Simba's thoughts through his life*

Who am I ?
By Eben Prentzler

Who am I ?
A species of a beautiful place
Right in the middle of the Savannah
Where the winds brush through your face
And the smell of freshness never dies
Who am I?
I'm proud of where I stand
Because I'm the prince of The Pride Lands

Who am I ?
A witness to a horrible event
Which happened in front of my eyes
A figure of a lion making a descend
Down a rock ace with a terrible cry
Who am I?
I can't say, I won't talk further
Because I just commited murder

Who am I ?
A lost soul from
Across the sands
Where guilt will beat my conscience like a drum
So now I'm here living a lie
Who am I ?
I don't know or I'll never see
Who in this crazy world could help me ?

Who am I ?
One confronted with my lie
Ready to take my place
Now with truth in hand I won't die
All is over and the heavens start to cry
Who am I ?
Yes I know, this will come as a shock
But I'm the King of Pride Rock

*This Poem is Simba's thoughts while he was in the savannah*

Another Day
By Eben Prentzler

Another day has gone
Without the bravest one
I should know because I'm his son
I remember all the fun
Oh, Father I'm sorry for what I've done

Another day flew by
Without the noblist one by my side
I should know because I'm her son
I remember all the right and wrong
Oh, Mother can you ever forgive me for what I've done

Another day has passed for all kind
With memories of the most beautiful in my mind
I should know because I'm her friend
I remember all we used to be
Oh, Nala please don't forget me

*Simba's thoughts on Scar ruling his Kingdom from cubhood till adult*

Kingdom
by Eben Prentzler

Stalking a mouse in a hole, a dark pelt and beady eyes
A slouch with evil plans, pruging truth into great lies
A little lion, with a big mind, surely tricked me
But he does it always, as he tricks all he hears and sees

Always altering the facts, just telling, lies
Can make anyone disappear, he is the only one who won't miss them

He says he has the answers, but don't listen to him anyway
Ever think that he might be lying to you every day?
He mustn't try to fool me, already through his treachery he made me run
But I believe my Kingdom will come!

"K", is for Kings, "I", is for innocence
Of a young cub you accused
"N", never will I rule, "G", I'm going
from the land and family I love
"D", for destruction, "O", the opportunity to regain my throne
"M", a merciless death to you

This speels my Kingdom and it means nothing to you
But at least your reign is now through

*More of Simba's thoughts*

Blood Of Kings
by Eben Prentzler

All alone, let me tell you
I was left for dead
But now I'm on a mission
My destiny lies ahead
My kingdom is a place full of crime
So just get this straight
Your rule is over now it's my time
It's time to meet my fate

Everyone, I'm still alive
With a lot on stake, let me halt this evil crime
Friends by my side, devils by your side
I'm not going anywhere, because real kings never die

In my veines
Blood of kings
It's gives me the courage to believe
And it gives you no relief

It's something that haunts you
And you don't know what makes you blue
Now it's time to stop all your controllings
With the blood of kings
