Sole Survivor Poem by Rik Bertrand

SOLE SURVIVOR

It's cold and dark in this light,
but till the end my soul will fight.
Caught in a battle with no desire,
my heart is filled with burning fire.

I fight so I can feel the light,
of a sunny day and starry night.
I fight for those, whose life is lost,
and I will win at any cost.

The mind is a mighty sword,
to be used with all accord.
Courage is within my reach,
my soul, will no man breach.

Sole survivor of an inner war,
fighting from the inner core.
Sole survivor of a man gone mad,
my life is spared, my heart is sad.
