the battle

once upon a time

the warrior fought a battle

him and the enemy

raged 'cross the earth

destroying all in their wake

and the battle lasted a century

but the warrior won

defeating the enemy

the enemy fell

with a crash into the sea

and the warrior stood

forever valiant

and waited for the world's adoration

which never came

for there was no one left

and the warrior fell to the earth

in shock and sorrow

and he was no more
