Warrior

He stands ,shoulders erect ,eyes facing ahead

tall, strong, scars from battles long gone cover his face

ahead he knows he will face great peril..fight ferocious monsters

rivers of fire, the promise of death facing his every step

but still he proceeds, with fire in his eyes resolute strength

knowing what he will gain is worth losing his life for

shes the beat of his heart, the song on his lips

the reason he lives

and every battle ,every war brings him closer

to the day when he shall see her face again

for this alone,he shall fight to the end.

so he unsheathes his sword, says a silent prayer

and forges ahead

for no greater love has he than he who should lay down his life

for the one he loves.



Warrior.
