the world is rotting, but i refuse to rot with it.
everyone claws for power like starving dogs,
but i was not born to kneel,
not meant to waste away in a life that isn’t mine.
steel does not age.
a blade does not compromise.
only flesh withers, only cowards beg for time.
i will not be either.
if honor is a flame, let me burn before i fade.
let my name be written in scars, not silence.
let my soul break before it bends.
there is no beauty in survival,
only in meeting the end with open hands,
feeling the cold kiss of fate,
and letting the earth drink deep one last time.
the sun sets red.
let it set with me.
