Armor

I know you did not want to play
But my armor and I
Showed up anyway
And we fought and slew
Great dragons with conviction
And we spat and cursed
Wiping sweat with our sleeve
And the hardness of our eyes
Could not match the gray
Stone of our hearts
Til I lifted up my helmet
Asking, why am I destroying
What I love.
