I wrote this poem a number of years ago, and keep finding places to post it where suitable.
Farewell my friend,
This is the end,
We have travelled far together,
And now our paths split.
Perhaps we shall meet again,
In some far away land,
Perhaps one day,
In some not so difficult times,
We will dance and sing,
And joke has we had before.
Your wit will always be with me,
And my wit will travel with you.
For though we are apart,
We will always be together,
Through the wisdom that we shared.
Oh, and another one, while I think about it:
Bear in mind, this is my first work.
In Darkness,
Live many,
In Light,
Live few.
I am Lightbringer,
Bearer of torch and blade,
Guide of the wandering,
Seeker of the lost.
Torch of love, and blade of truth,
I seek those who know not,
That which I do.
Servant of all,
Leader of few,
Strong in weakness,
Proud in humility,
Call me not one of your own,
For belong to you I do not.
I serve the King,
With my whole heart.
This body and soul,
Do not belong to me,
The one who wears them,
But to the One who made them.
Fear is not known to me,
Nor is hate or sorrow.
My action is guided,
Only by love.
My lips speak truth,
To those who do not care,
My passion is tempered,
By the hardness of will.
Know this, I am not the first,
And I pray I am not the last.
To stand against the rising tide,
And face death always,
That is my purpose.
Few ever choose my path,
For Courage is my name.
Boldly I go, where none dare
To even look.
Virtue and Hope are my daughters,
Strength and Wisdom are my sons.
Trust them, if you trust me.
Lightbringers,
Hear my words,
Spoken of the heart,
And crafted in the soul.
Do not settle for those things
Which come easy, but fully strive
For the greater goal,
That comes in victory.
