No Idea

from sightless eyes, the words were spoken, of hearts stopped beating, and bones, broken. a fight broke out that friend nor foe can, fend off at all, with gold or token. through-out the night, and day it lingered, with hearts ceased beating, and bones, splintered. a fight that felt as cold as winter, that bore no loss, or hope of winner. unseen by any, who could, in fact, help hearts not beating, and bones, cracked. a fight that seemed, would forever, last, always future, present, past. as sharp, and clear, as child's laughter, were hearts quit beating, and bones, shattered. a fight in darkness, that just got blacker, and swallowed whole anything that mattered.

If you look deep enough, the only reason fights happen is because of clashing prides, and its never worth it in the end.
