A warrior for religion

A gladiator for beliefs

A hunter for enlightenment

You try to solve with violence


Not uderstanding your decisions

Not conciously making a choice

Voicing your opinions 

On the blade of a sword


You are right and holy

Yet you spill much blood

You think yourself good and true

Your mind is being melded


These beliefs are not yours

Doubts and questions.

Not assured or answered

Are you truly right


You think and think

Pondering your choices

Were you right?

Were you wrong?


Tricked by blood

Betrayed by a brother

You trusted him

And he thrust the knife


Fading and SLowing

Tiring and sad

Cold and lonely

Regretting things once said


Faking a smile

Say you're alright

Hide behind an ego

To make things seem better


A lilting flute plays

A sad little tune

No one else hears it

No one but you
