Steel Clashes

Steel clashes
Horrors unfold
In the heart of battle
The blood runs cold

Vision blurs
Through a haze
A blood red mist
Lost in a craze

A leader rises
Gathers his men
Surges forward
To fight again

A parry here
A cutting slash there
Men die at his blade
Enemies beware

Ahead looms a Dread Knight
In black armor he stands
Cold, untouched by battle
Gleaming sword, in ghostly hands

Tunnel visioned
Only one opponent seen
Battle instinct takes over
The duel starts, both are keen

Circling one another
The Knight slashes
Lightning reactions
The leaders sword clashes

As steel meets steel
The duel rages
Shallow wounds
But the fight still blazes

Knocked to the ground
He must not fall
The leaders dazed
But the gods hear his call

Sword flaring blue
The ghostly Knight senses danger
The leader gets up
No longer does he weaver

The Knight hesitates
Here's the leaders chance
Rushing forward
He ends the deadly dance

Left standing in the field
Enemies are no more
The battles won
But there's still the war...
