Haunted I remove bloody armor put my sword and shield away to stand naked on the battlefield on this cold dark autumn day. The fight was hard and fierce where flames once scorched the ground as now only dying embers and dead charred bodies can be found As I a naked man alone hide my face and wipe away tears. The pain and torment of this single day will haunt me all my years. The scarlet hue of northern sky takes my every breath away as if the spirits off these fallen here were lifted from the fray. But –oh – the horrid sounds of battle are still ringing in my ears as I a naked man alone hide my face and wipe away tears. The men I slew were brave and faithful I saw passion in their souls as one by one I cut them down to the burnt earth to repose. We met at dawn as rains poured down and the thunder gave a roar. I drew my blade as lightning flashed then charged fast towards Death’s door. When the cursed portal closed with all my whole life’s fears the pain and torment of one single day would haunt me all my years as I a naked man alone hide my face and wipe away tears. |
