The Defenders

Printer-friendly version

The Defenders
We are the defenders
The shield bearers
The ones who protect

We the defenders have a question for you

What use are the defenders
If there’s nothing left to defend

The castle
The core
Your innermost place

What use are we defenders
When you force us to lock you in place

The scenery matters not
It’s still a cell

We the defenders wait for the day
When we release you, save you, and go on our way

We the defenders
Are just like you

Let us help you
We won't harm you
We humbly implore

For the destruction

Of the shackles
The chains
The things that hide you away

Defenders

I don't understand this poem. Not sure why, but I don't. I'm sorry if it upsets the author or someone else, but that's the case for me.
