The huge iron gates opened
And I could hear the roar of the crowd
As the sun beat down on my body
Wielding my sword and shield
Ready to do battle
With whomever came out next
The gate opened I saw my opponent
No how could they do this
My best friend and warrior
I would not fight him
One had to die
To satisfy their blood lust
For death in the arena
He stood there looking at me
As my shield and sword dropped to the floor
He walked towards me
Sword held out ready for battle
As I told him I would not do this
And to run his blade through me
The sunlight beating us...
