Where Were You?

Where were you,

When I gave up the fight?

Where were you,

When I first saw the light?

Now alone in StarClan,

I think and I recall,

Those battles long ago,

Did they happen at all?

Where were you when,

I died to save my clan?

Where were you when,

We foiled Tigerstar's plan?

Everything became a blur,

As my legs carried me on,

But little did I know,

I would never see next dawn.

I was no longer young,

But as I raced through the trees,

My power and strength,

Came with ease.

The next thing I knew,

I was in the icy water.

But as I struggled for breath,

I saw my son and daughter.

They were with you,

Standing on the shore,

As me and dogs were swept,

Away forever more.

The next thing I remembered,

As I fought to catch my breath,

Was seeing you,

As I lay close to death.

The dogs were gone,

My clan was saved.

But I knew,

A price had been payed.

As I spoke to you,

I wondered once more,

Where were you,

When I neared death's door?

And as I breathed my last,

I knew deep inside of me,

You were always there,

Fireheart, my loyal deputy.
