Where does a warrior go when he dies?
Is he gone before the end
So that he can start his longest journey?
Who must he do battle with
On his way to his last destination?
The warrior has been brave all his life
He has fought many battles
Some dangerous, others not
But now he is tired
His bravery has worn thin
He no longer has the heart
To vanquish the demons he has fought
He will not lay down his sword
But he will not fight
And he will end on his terms
For he is a warrior
Who greets a warrior at the gates of his forever?
Is it that force he has fought for all his life
Or the fiery nemesis he has struggled against?
Where does a warrior go when he dies?
