I'm not sure if sad is the word,
The word to describe how I feel,
And I'm sure it may sound absurd,
But it seems as my heart is steel,
My steel heart has stayed strong,
Stayed strong throughout each battle,
But it's been strong for way too long,
And I can hear it beginning to slowly crackle,
I cannot hold on much longer my dear,
Soon I will go completely numb,
My eyes dilated with fear,
As my steel hearts last beats sounded of drums.
