Somehow thought I should upload this....

============
Icarius
============
Their sights transfixed on the other
Blood thirsty swords drawn
Wishing to slay one another
His heart betrayed him as he looked on
Icarius t'was, dearer than his brother

His mind flew back to a time
Not long before, Icarius and he
Rode on together like music and rhyme
Calling out to each other in sheer glee
With love which like an eternal star did shine
"Icarius I'll give my life for thee"

A friendship which others swore by
Mysteriously vanished as the deserts rain
He never would beguile
They ponederd, but in vain
Repeled by disgust, trust would die

The news of mistrust spread far and wide
The face of the enemy sure did glow
And in pludendering the two kingdoms he took pride
Leaving them to think friend hath turned foe
He swore "Icarius I shall skin thy hide"

Now with the bloody edges drawn high
To decease the others throat
Both still could hear their hearts cry
Not knowing when the sword cut the metal coat
Icarius cried out with bloody tears "WHY ?"
