A Thief's End

Orphans left to the world, as anyone can see

they require more than the edge of mediocrity.

The brothers' Drake, found a name for themselves

chasing the treasure and fame that their names can claim.

Sic Parvis Magna, greatness from small beginnings,

could mean so much across the years

These men solve the riddle and fight the enemy to answer history's cry for understanding.

There comes a time when it becomes too much, and there is a choice between adventure and pride.

Nathan Drake understands that a normal life is more than the lure of adventure, and for better or for worse, his wife sees, too, this is the thief's end, to live on in memory when the future is near.

**Authors note: One of my favorite soundtracks is that of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. Not only is the game wonderful, but the music is heartbreaking and mesmerizing. Check out my other poems that I wrote while listening to the soundtrack below. The composer is Henry Jackman, and I am obsessed. **
