Bravehearts Demise

Blinded by loss of thelLove his tormentors denied Driven by hope but bewildered by he who had lied Let loose like a fury but mindful of all that he loved The freedom to live as a man or to die like a martyred dove Both brave of the mind and the heart, as his brothers in arms Life on the run in the highlands, staying just out of harm Strike with the vengeance of God & the wrath of the damned With God on his side, life unfolds as a legend has planned Whispering love on the breath of an angel of peace Blown kisses of star spangled hope, falling just outta reach Tempered and hardened, by doubt, in the blink of an eye Lost in a veil of uncertainty, destined to die Only faith holds the key, to the promise of Heaven to come Only steel traps the body and soul, 'til the mind will succumb Beaten and broken of body, but free of the soul God grant me the strength not to cry out, at the cost of the toll
