Into the Night

Into the Night

A Poem by Nix

Thrum Thrum beats the drum

Beckoning us to fight

Till blood is shed

And we have won

We march into the night

Run Run oh great force

Menacing is our plight

But what is more

The heavenly courts

We run into the night

Swing Swing that bloodied sword

Trembling they are with fright

From dust they are

And dust restored

We clash into the night

Shout Shout the end is near

Reckoning is in sight

Run you fools

There's much to fear

They flee into the night

Brilliant piece!!! I could hear this being voice narrated by someone like
Morgan Freeman in some award winning movie. Thanks for sharing and b-blessed.

Okay, this was just amazing. This has got to be my favorite battle song I have ever read. You did such an amazing job describing scene without really going into a lot of detail, which still leaves me in awe. Awesome job, Mowery. :)

The old style of fighting...true at arms with the sound of the drums...and charge..the fight was more dramatic in those days...
