"The Sound of the Blade" by Dark Moor (Lyric) by D. $ Fontera

Lowering clouds in the sky aglow Darken my shield of victory Is my fate doomed to hell on earth? A shift in the wind guides me to to home I stare in the mirror now Who is that under my bloody mail? I bury my lance and I kneel on this field I rend the air with my old sword I commend my soul to God I'm fatally hurt but not by a knight When I hear the sound of the blade I recall all the blood shed in vain I bury my lance and I kneel on this field I rend the air with my old sword I commend my soul... Wherever I turn my eyes I only see the lives I shattered and they'll never find the path of the sun Wherever I turn my head I only see the dead I left behind, they'll never find the path of the sun

Sort of Achilles' comprehending, but it feels very much like a gamer's poem (not a bad thing, by the way). The piece wasn't bad, but it's a dramatic poem in not-so-dramatic language. I just felt that it was the sort of poem which is designed to be over-written. Still fairly enjoyable.
