Obi-Wan's feelings during his duel with Darth Maul. This is a one shot poem. Written just after The Phantom Menace hit theaters (I've been going through old boxes, and found this…). This is my first time to publish a poem. Any good? Let me know…

The Final Confrontation

I see you lying there

Unmoving

Your killer stares at me

Glaring

Daring me to fight for you.

The way is blocked

Light

The color red is all I see

Anger

But the fight must go on.

Suddenly the time has come

Freedom

I move to engage him

Fury

The fight has begun again.

I stare into the face of evil

Hatred

I know I cannot win

Regret

But still the fight goes on.

My turn now to die

Sorrow

Yet I will live for you

Survival

As the fight rages on.

I reach an inner stillness

Calm

I know what I need to do

Victory

He falls before me.

I stare at your broken body

Remorse

I've no way to bring you back

Grieving

The fight is over, and you are gone.


Well, what did you think? Should I stick to stories? Believe me, I won't be offended...
