And to my surprise

He did not yield.

His eyes on fire,

and nerves like steel.

It was no doubt,

that this was the end.

Of something that should have,

since faced the rend.

But what did become,

of those two warriors of stone?

Were their minds trapped in stasis?

And their hearts chilled through bone?

Whatever the reason, one thing is for sure

Only one would live forever.

But while their intentions weren’t pure,

It was a noble endeavor.
