Spoiler in the Bards Note be warned!!
Disclaimer: I don't own them, I don't even really mention them, but just in case, they're not mine and I put them back in there box honest!
Bards Note: It seems to me that the only redemption our Xena can find is in death, and if that's the way its gotta be, I gave her a different one, a death more befitting a warrior, rather than the horrible way they killed her off in the final episodes!
The Redemption By Melissa Jones.
I find you on the war torn land,
Your eyes are full and blue,
You reach for me a reassuring hand,
But I know your death is true.
Your eye's shine bright but your lips turn cold,
Your breath does bite, then holds,
Your hand does drop, and your features are still,
With no more life to will.
The wind gently wisps your darkened hair,
The grass does cushion your head,
Then you leave me here alone,
For I know that you are dead.
Your redemption came at such a cost,
You gladly paid its debt,
And in my broken, shattered heart,
I found the strength and wept.
