i wrote this a while ago. for my hockey team
thought i would put it on hear
warriors

warriors
fight to the end, to death
stand tall and straight
raise our swords high towards the stars
and salute the many people we represent
the many we go into battle for
we trained our bodies to withstand the fullest
torn muscles, cut arms and cracked shoulders
our blood, our sweat
our tears
we stand next to each other one last time
side by side
brother by brother
but our dynasty, our era has come to an end
and we, the few
will continue what our older brothers have accomplished
take the thrown of this desolate ice formation
and build an empire larger than any other
they will not be forgotten
remembered as leaders
who I have grown so attached too for two years
role-models
and friends
I will gladly hand them my weapon in the future
when in need
serve them like they have served me
we may have not come out on top for the gold
but together our hearts have
in unity
together we battled
and together we roared
