The Warrior

  In dreams he wakes
and oft'n sleeps. Wakened
by mem'ries to deep to keep.
  Haunted, he cries,
desperate he tries, tries
to escape the weathered
dreams.
  Old and weary,
weak and leary, his
stubborn mind refuses
to wake.
  Trapt inside a lie he
cannot hide, no truth
inside e'er he die.
