The Unknown

There is something in the shadows 
that we can`t see.
Deciding the actions 
of you versus me.

It has come 
for many men. 
That anger the gods
and it wants to send.

To a journey 
where no one goes.
Matter no friend 
or matter no foes.

It lurks in the land 
of the dead mans rows.
Where everything is silent
and no wind blows.

It is not Valhalla
where warriors go.
Neither is it heaven
where all the winds blow.

So take your care 
and use it well.
You don`t know 
what lays to dwell.
