_The Battle of Helm's Deep_





The darkness closed upon them

Boxed in at the Keep

The Elves arrived to aid them

To help defend Helm's Deep



They watched for them over the wall

The Uruk army marched

The rain began to fall

Over ground once parched



The army stopped abruptly

The silence closed in fast

Although the looming silence

Was not destined to last





An arrow, shot from the Deep,

Struck dead an Uruk Hai

The leader of the Uruks roared

A blood curdling cry





To destroy the race of Men

Is the Uruk Hai's main goal

So they fight-ten thousand strong-

With all their heart and soul





Three hundred Human soldiers,

Against ten thousand Uruk Hai-

The likely ending of this battle,

Is that the Men shall die.



And so they did-die I mean-

The outcome looking grim

Then on the dawn of the fifth day

Arrived the Rohirrim



The King rode out to fight

Against the Reckless Hate

For Wrath, for Ruin, for the Red Dawn

His future did await





The Uruk Hai who thought to

Box in the defenseless Eorlings

Found themselves left to face

The other side of things



To the East, the Rohirrim,

Eorlings to the West

The final battle the did lose

And learned they're not the best.
