Poetry

An outlet for players whose creativity extends beyond the board. Post your original works here!

The posting of song lyrics is not the purpose of this board and as such please refrain from doing so. Exceptions can be made to this rule if you are the copyrighted owner of the lyrics and the lyrics are not found offensive by the majority of the population.
This board is a place to post your original works of poetry and prose and also a place for discussion of poetry and related areas.

We have received word from Fencer that other's poetry can be posted to this board. These are the two conditions:
1) When someone posts a known copyrighted poem, he must add the author's name as well
2) If the author is not known, the poem can be posted without problems

Subject: The Last Battle

I have fought the good fight,
With all I have,
With all I am.
I think back on all the victories.
Those glorious battles where,
I was the victor.
Gather up all the medals!
Let me gaze upon the glory,
Before I go down.

My spirit is worn,
And I seek the final rest.
I have nothing left,
And the enemy is at the door.
Soon I shall feel the sting on my neck,
And my final breath shall escape me.

Where I go many men have gone before,
And my victor shall gaze upon his future,
As he looks down on me.

I have done all I can do,
I have nothing more to give.
