Battlefield

I lay here, gasping,

Blood flows down my paws,

My eyes flicker sideways,

As the light begins to fade.

This is the life of a warrior,

A cruel one 'tis.

Sacrificing all for your friends,

To fight against evil and injustice.

I recall my comrades,

All brave beasts they were,

Fearing nothing as they leapt,

Into the very heat of battle.

I am alone now,

With nobeast to comfort me,

I feel my life crumbling,

Sinking into a dark bottomless pool.

Now I close my eyes,

I feel light and happy,

As I draw in one last breath,

Laying on this battlefield.
