A broken down man
Stares at the sky
Wish for wind
And for the stars to alight

He sighs
And lets his eyes stare another way
Falling arms and a shattered shield
His heart spilling out

The wound will not heal
The pain will not give in
Fear is building
Life is running away

On his knee
The broken down man
Awaits the Black Rider
Helplessly

But alas!
He draws his sword
Mighty and high in the heaven
Though now it’s only the hilt

The iron falls heavily to the ground
His body also
The darkest abyss
And the war is finished

No smile upon his face
No love in his heart
Empty he came to the world
Dark Rider, he cried a last time

Over him a shadow fell
His eyes closed
Sounds of hooves
Is the final sound inside his chest
