Warnings: Spoilers if you haven't seen Season 8 finale.

Summary: A poem of sorts. The Winchesters fight a war for humanity that no one ever sees.


A long time ago, they were promised rest when they were done,

But there's no end in sight, their road goes ever on and on.

Tried and tested, twisted and turned

In the ice and fire of Hell they've frozen and they've burned.

Heart-sore and weary, they've given everything and more,

No time to mourn the fallen in this unseen war.

Now Heaven is empty, wingless angels walk the earth,

Metatron is smiling, a smile without mirth.

Our prophets are children and no sacrifice is clean.

And all they can depend on is Dean on Sam, and Sam on Dean.
