With Final Battle

The war of good and evil is not one with victory
It is about the flesh weariness and fear of loss
It is about fighting for the thing that matters most
The battles take life and are fought most bitterly
And the knight's armor only barely deflects the cost
Battles are not won with words and no idle boast
The knight faces death, and demons, inside and out
Days wane, enemies growing in number, in legion
The castles walls will fall, and footmen die
Whatever the journey, the knight will face doubts
Most knights die when their souls show treason
But the knight who knows victory is pure inside
No human flesh ever will last forever
Knights fight, knowing their days will end
 But they give until their time is severed
Dying most likely with sword in hand




7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
— Revelation 12:7–10
