A Lonely Warrior
I walk alone on this planet,
Beneath a red sky that I haven't met before.
Has it been long since I started searching?
It feels like over a year since we last spoke.
Glowing hair and gleaming eyes.
A man I hadn't met before.
But yet, we had met.
Even in a heated battle,
You seemed happy to see me.
And for the first time in my life,
I felt like a child.
I had waited for you
On that miserable mud-ball,
Which you call "home".
Much to my dismay,
I learned you wouldn't be returning.
That's why I left.
So here I am,
In another world I don't know.
It feels like forever since I started.
Has it been that long since we spoke?
Dry dusk lifts from the ground,
Off of faces I keep seeing.
My journey will continue,
Only until I find you.
Because I need to thank you,
For burying this worthless corpse.
Anyone else would've lain me to rot.
I want to see you again,
To speak for one last time.
I want to see the sky
The way you see it.
I want to thank you.
Then that will be the end.
Counting down the days
Until I see you again.
I walk alone on this planet,
Beneath a red sky that I haven't met before.
This poem maps out a short-story I'm hopefully going to write. I'm deciding whether to keep the name of the poem as the name of the story.
