The Hero

Break out of these chains. Hold on to the reins. Don't let them keep you again. Help free the slain. Hiding in the past. Never looking back. Memories he soon forgets. Lost time he regrets. Comrades scream in vain at the man without a name. Following his every move; his life is theirs to lose. Like a captain of a sinking ship, a soldier with an ailing hip. He must forget his pain and show these men the way. Never will he see the light of day again Never will he breathe this air again His destiny is to die a hero A hero without a name.
