The warrior runs with the torch,
Into the dark horizon.
Bringing light to where the suns rays no longer fall.
Seeing where his brothers have failed,
He ignores their agony.
Running far, tired beyond belief.
Jumping over obstacles, climbing,
and pulling himself over.
Leaves the warrior exhausted.
"Is there no end?"
The warrior asks himself.
Strength leaves him,
The torch emits no more light.
He knows that failure is not acceptable,
He fights his body for a moment no more.
Knees tremble, his hands are on the ground.
The warrior knows that he has failed,
Finally after much effort.
He gives in, the torch still hot is blackened beside him.
He is forced to stare at nothing but the empty darkness,
As a final darkness closes over his own eyes.
