And so the games begin...

I wake up in a field.

The warmth upon my skin.

I grab my sword and shield.

And so the games begin...


I see the grand Colosseum.

I came here to win.

I came here to beat them.

And so the games begin...


I see my combatant.

I grin an evil grin.

I have a weak opponent.

And so the games begin...


And he started to cry,

when I pulled out my knife.

He said, "I have a family,

I do not want to die."


I said, "Then what foolish move to make,

when you can't even defend"

And with this last one life I take

The games come to an end...
