hero's struggle

just beneath the surface of his sleepy mundane life
a heroic epic struggle has been furiously raging on
every sinew of his mortal shell steeled for the fray

it seems that all he's lived for was to meet the hour
when the last of those lingering haunting ghosts and
unrelenting demons lay slain and defeated at his feet

but experience has revealed to him this eternal truth
the nature of these beasts is that they're never-ending
and depend upon his morbid fears for their earthly form

that day he's always fought for can never come to be
til his bloodied sword and battered shield are laid to rest
as only absolute surrender can bring him lasting peace
