Yes... it's another one...

 

The Outsider

***********

At birth was he chosen

purpose his to fulfill

with burdens was he laden

toughened again and again still

 

His heart filled with gladness

at the chance to be used

Cut, thrust and parry

in teaching was he suffused

 

Upon him the mantle laid

with him the futures rest

from sapling to strong oak

emerged as champions best

 

Sent out foul deeds amind

One purpose, One vision alone

Time to reflect upon the task

all well laid plans come undone

 

"I will not do this!"

screamed to earth and heaven

the cost so dear to him

people lost and outcast then

 

Trusting few, loving none

Running, pursued by his fear

No purpose, long lost and gone behind

Oh, shed a lonely tear
