The Fallen Solider

As she stands there looking at you
she remembers when your eyes
Were bright and filled with life
Filled with a qiuet strength
The heart of a warrior who yeilded to no man
She remembers a solider ready to brave the battle of life
A solider who stood above all adversaries
A knight who defened his love to the death
she remebers you charging in to the battle of Judgement Day
Fighting through enemies and friends alike
Everytime you fell she caught you and beg for you to stay 
To end it but her solider continued to fight 
Through fire blizzards and storms mortally wounded with each blow
Yet her solider fights on
The battle intensifies the sky turned black 
The clouds shed tears of blood on the warriors below
Nature itself contorts into a mass of twisted dejected souls
As hell rained down all around you engulfing you in its dark twisted mist 
Filled with howls of the damned
As the fire dies and black mist recedes
She see's you now kneeling alone a battered defeated solider
Back stiffened by harsh realites
Your shoulders sagging but rigid under the crushing burden you carry
Torn an stained hands your soul broken 
Her solider who endured all till you can't anymore
The hounds of hell rise again screaming and twisting
Ready to devour your very exsistance
She runs to you unafraid across oceans valleys and mountains
Crosses through heaven straight into hell
To catch you in her arms in a way to sheild you from the demons and hurt you face
Your princess from above willing to die with her
Defeated solider in the bowels of hell
Ready to sacrifice her life to hold you through the end of yours
Her Defeated solider who won her heart
