Description
“Once more into the fray.
Into the last good fight I’ll ever know.
Live and die on this day.
Live and die on this day.”
• The Grey •
Dear Grim Reaper, I’d like to warn
That I won’t run like most
I will not flee, I will not hide
This is not a proud boast
It’s not a threat or challenge
Just a promise what’s to come
When we are face to face, this Warrior
Will not succumb
To fear, to doubt or regret ‘cause
For years I have now walked
The path that so many have only
Dreamed and wished and talked
I know you wait until some are
Breaking down and quite old
Know regardless of my grey
I’ll always be this bold
Come for me while I’m still strong
In muscle and in mind
Come for me before my ears
Go deaf and eyes go blind
And though the outcome’s definite
I only have one goal
When I do battle with you, it’s
To exact a great toll
I do not doubt your victory
But I assure one truth
If you come for me while I am
Still in my years of youth
When you are finished, you will have
To stop and take a breath
You’ll know it was a Warrior
That has just battled Death
See you somewhere down the road
On that cold, lonely night
I’m not afraid for I know it
Will be my last good fight
