Children of the Glacier

And the warrior put down his blade, allowing that empty spot in his chest invade his soul.

For being subjected to the cruel life he brought upon himself and losing track of his goal.

People watched as he kneeled down with a craned head and began to break down in tears.

Because nobody cared that his heart was broken as the moment of truth grew ever so near.

I was that warrior, my friends;

tried, true, but never loved again

Because nobody really knows of what the warrior is deserving.

Together everyone brought about his vexing unnerving.

Those who don't care may very well do but play the pretender.

They wait for the very moment that the warrior may surrender.

But I will never give up children -- whose eyes are my ears of the night.

Instead I consider alternatives -- I will never give up this brutal fight.

And dot my lines, foul demon that manifests itself in love.

In the name of the lord, I will bring down a hammer from above!

You are the serpent who will destroy my very soul.

You are fighting a warrior who has yet to become whole.

And I have the tools of strength, mind, and guile to defeat you, wicked beast.

And in the very end I swear that bread will be broken at the very last feast.

We will celebrate in the midst of fire, song, technics, and dance.

And that will be the day where I am perhaps given one more chance.

But nobody ever forgets you demon, because even in death your work is done.

You prevent the mind from ever thinking pure of me for simple afterliving fun.

Though you have not been properly banished from this realm, I will return to fight.

Age after age I will continue to correct all my wrongs and make everything right.

Because who are you to haunt my life and inflict eternal suffering, you disgusting creature?

If there was a simple way to destroy you now and forever, it would be a highlighting feature!

So once again I brandish against you my blade of frost.

We will do battle and again I will be forever lost.

But I will smile knowing that one thing is true.

That I fought with all my skill to destroy you.

All my allies will celebrate my annual victory.

As my soul may perhaps ascend into divinity.

And when I return, the world will be free from the doom gazer

So stay the course, beautiful children of the glacier.
