War

It was a cold September morning

We arose from our slumber

Feasting on our breakfast with our men

A king is ready for war

He was not here to take part

But he was here to take over

When one of us goes to war

We all go

As we picked up our armour

We brandished our weapons

We kissed our wives and children

Some of us may never come home.

But we stand in the courtyard of the castle

“Men, women. Some of you may never come home but you will always be a hero. When we stride to war. We cut off their heads. When we win we lay them to rest. For this is us”

The battle was long, the battle was hard.

The king won.

Freedom for now

Freedom forever.

Your king
