swords made of shadows

the watcher of the night

delivering a deathblow

to the evil taking flight

*

An arrow with no mercy

guided into the heart of death

a good and faithful servant

till my last and final breath

*

Though many rage against me

I will stand steady and strong

defeat the foe against thee

with a wrath of soldiers songs

*

A refuge from your struggles

a shield throughout the fight

A confidant in troubles

Guiding paths into the light

*

You may not remember

I was there when you began

stoking every ember

until you became a man

*

The hero of the broken

The master of the wall

I will stand before to aid you

and together, stand or fall

surreal poetry
