Torchword 2
June 2, 2015
Immortal they said,
But he screams at the sky,
Curses the one
for whom he would die,
He watches his loved ones
around him grow old,
He holds their hands
until they lie cold,
A scared little boy
on the coast of Boeshane,
He tries to forget that,
To hide all his pain,
Our years are his days,
Our centuries his weeks,
O Captain, My Captain,
It's death that you seek.
