A poem for Dinobot as told by Rattrap
He made his choice to fight that day,
his thoughts no more of hate.
But even he could not withstand
the icy hand of fate.

Each enemy he fought and won
till at last the greatest stood.
And nature watched this final fight
of evil versus good.

His greatest enemy he fought.
But now with army gone,
the villain turned his tail and fled
leaving only one.

Alone he stood, the battle won.
No more had he to give.
Honorably he gave his life
so others might still live.

Our force arrived, alas too late
to save him from his pain.
With his last breath he told his tale
so death came not in vain.

I remembered well the fight we'd had
only hours before.
But suddenly now it seemed to me
not to matter anymore.

My mind still sees his darkened eyes.
My soul still hears his cry.
My heart still strikes me deep with pain
as when I watched him die.

I know now it's much too late
to try and make things right.
My last chance was swept away
that bloody, smoke-filled night.

But I know one thing for sure.
My heart will never mend.
For on that dark and fateful night
I lost my dearest friend.
