Comrade In Arms



Comrade in arms, on the field of defeat

I salute you as we part ways.

One battle lost, another

Defeat to put behind us,

Is not the end, we have eternity to win.

Impressed as I am by you salute

Your resistance, grit and grace, though

The wounds you suffered laid you low.

So seeing in you my own distress

I fought for you as for myself,

My own long and lonely battles,

Saw through you I'm a fighter too.

More my hero than I would admit,

Comrade in arms, I salute you.
