Battle

Battle

A Poem by Paul Wallace
"

It is kind of an extended pooem from an earlier one I wrote...

"

I saw him standing in the trees

His armor was as dark as night

It was shining like a blackened sea

I knew that it would be a fight

 

He pulled out a silver blade

With black diamonds encrusted in

He started to step out of the shade

I felt in my gut that I would never win

 

I turn to run but stopped to see

he was standing there, blocking the road

how could he be there in front of me?

I felt that this was evil bestowed

 

I pulled out my sword in turn

preparing to battle for life

staying alive my only concern

tensing for a bitter strife

 

My foe struck first, quick and hard

I blocked the strike just barely

I had to stay fully on guard

or else my foe would win unfairly

 

I countered swinging low

Trying for the dark knees

he swiftly blocked the blow

O can God help me please?

 

We battled hard and long

the power shifting 

We were equally strong

My spirits never lifting

 

Finally I swung a final blow

At long last I had him slain

After battling to and fro

"For light!" I sang
