The Deserted's Walk
They walked and they walked, as tiring as the truth
They looked back and around, there should be a stop
They took their courage and demanded to not halt,
Where shall it take them? A question they long asked
And so it begun, walked they did
As painful and as tired they may seem
Took some breath and dragged their way back up again
Where shall it take them? a fading doubt whose grave they slowly dig
One, two, three, four...five
The deserted begged for a dive
Fearless, they stand on their ground
Stubborn, they showed no mercy
And up they marched, with burdens none could lift
They marched and to a halt they finally came
Bidding thee farewell,
To the deserted no longer seen.
