I swear I won't tell a soul

of how you fought and how you fell


your personal agony would never

translate to anything others could comprehend


your enemy so much like you

equally recondite equally committed


and each with the afterthought

of where the fight was worth it or not


it hardly matters

since all sides are equally false


and each one's commitment is equally true

we do what we must and find out later


our place in the turning

and I won't be the one to betray your ordeal...
