The Wall of Glory

The poison that works within my soul

 

Chastises the angel that lives in my mind

 

Ahead is a battle, a fight I must win

 

Aside are my brothers whose arms they do bear

 

We warrior clan that fight only for kin

 

With swords as our cross to protect us from sin

 

Roads that we tread are often retraced

 

Once more into battle, once more we must brace

 

 

The poison controls and runs deep through my veins

 

My sword severs limbs, my angers now rage

 

My shield is pushed tight, the smell of his breath

 

Beneath I stab hard the, warmth of his flesh

 

And on to the next as we stand side by side

 

Driven by brothers, their blood curdling cries

 

The crush is unyielding pushing air from my lungs

 

My armour is heavy but my honour is strong

 

Yet on do I surge as the poisons runs deep

 

Chastising those angels that lived in my mind
