Sacrifice
By Tiger Wolf Hawk (Master Warious)
Riders on black horses Riding in the black of night Who are they? Why have they come?
Blazing eyes of red Foam glowing white The Night Mares have come Harbingers of Death
The riders dressed in sheets of white Men of cruelty Men of HATE! They care not for life
I stand alone on my hill I see them come I will not be moved I must not let them through
A week ago I saved a life Of one who was ‘unfit to live’<br>My wrath drove them back But I knew they would come again
I couldn’t let them kill My life is given for others Freak or monstrous I will not turn my head
They called him a freak They called him Monster I called him friend I called him Angel
Now he is safe from them I don’t fear for my life But I must give my life To keep him safe
They are coming up the hill Those riders of black horses Their white robes to become red Here I make my stand
As I lay here dieing The dirty deed done A song is heard all around The beauty of music
I lay here alone As the music soars and swells My eyes see the sky open upon me The Angels have come to take me home
Please tell me what you think of this poem
