Here I stand, among the bones
Of those who thought their time was up
Who ceased the mortal battle.
Their voices are carried away on sea foam
That lives a day, then dies at night;
And is never reborn.
Bleached and wasted, ready to bury
These remnants are unfamiliar to I
Who stayed her hand to fight.
I see their faces in my sleep
Hear the crunch of gravel und’r my feet.
Where have they gone? and can I follow?
Their laughter and their life have ceased.
Here I stand, among the bones,
Of those who never truly knew
The battles I fought for them,
and you.
Who thought their time was surely up.
Who ran into walls, and out of luck.
