Warrior's Heart

As I lay on my empty bed afterward

I can't help but think of him

Him, my nemesis, my counterpart…

As I replay the last few memories in my head

I remember the way he looked at me

Cold eyes once threatening to kill me burning warm…

Blood spilled by both of our hands

Now mixed in a whole new way

And I feel like screaming as I cry…

For warrior heart is like steel

Hard, but still breakable

And I think I just reached the limit…

I don't want him to leave me

I don't want to be alone and cold anymore

But we are too far away from each other, two worlds apart…

We know that our fragile bound wasn't mean to be

And we can do nothing, nothing but wait

Nothing but watch, till the end of our fight…
