The man, stood before you
Or was he a mountain?Armor of a samurai, red
Like the blood, seeping from your woundsYour blades clash, the sound
Like a hammer on an anvilIt's like music, the clash of steel
Shouts of exasperation, a melodyHis blade, reflecting heavenly light
Your blood, still wet on it's edgeIt's nearly as tall as you
Yet somehow you still standAnother clash, your will slipping
How many more can you take?You see nothing but the flash of steel
As the music comes to an endA sting, like a thorn
Only much worseThe red, streaming across your chest
Like a bottle of spilled inkGrasping, the last strands of life
Your hand reaches toward the sunsetIt really is beautiful
The way the orange glow streaks across the sky'You Died'
'Continue?'-1/6/21
