Sheild and Sword of Fate

You were raised to become a shield

While I was raised to become a sword

A shield and sword have different roles to play

However, they have one thing in common

But you'll need to figure what that is by yourself

 

Although you won't find a quick answer soon

You will eventually find it one day

Because we have a long journey ahead of us,

Until then don't go off dieing on the battlefield before me

Since you are a shield who protects other

While I'm a sword that cuts a path for others

 

As each passing days go by

Our emotions, our feelings start to fade away slowly

We have seen many blood spilt before our eyes

Now it has become a daily occurance in the world we live in

But one day it will disappear in the near future we all seek to have

 

As the war draws to a close,

We also met our fateful day at last

Since that day changed everything

For you, me, our comrades and friends

 

Before we realized what had happened

You and I were the last ones left

But as you were a shield who protects others

I chose to fight in front of you

I became the sword that fought for our future

 

As I become fatigue and start to lose momentum

I soon find myself being struck by an arrow through my heart

My life starts to fade as I gaze up at the rainy sky

Only to realize it was your face full of tears falling on my cheeks

I had wished to have been with you in your future, but I guess that I can't now

 

Now days, weeks, months and even years have pass since that day

You are still full of happiness mixed with sadness in the life you live in

But as you tilt your head up towards the sky with a smile on your face

I look down at you with a smile in return

 

As you continue to live on with your life as it is

I'll always be with you

Then, now and into the future I'll be there for you

Because it was my dream to be with you
