Epitomizing horror

Echoes its bleakest past

With willing replication

Let perspective last

Breaking deadlocks

World bleeding inside

Now the tide is turning

In ever-present pride

Strategies executed

All now beyond defeat

Analysis, no rise to flaws

See failure as retreat

Rearguard advantage

Third battle forges close

Forceful and evasive

So proud, yet morose

Seeds of future discord

Suspicion, fear and hate

Never lying dormant

One by one negate

No last offensive

All resistance ceased

Forced down the final path

Forwards into peace

"As man casts one last shadow

Onto stone fields of the forgotten

Overgrown ruins now

That fall into rank no longer

Honour - the fallen brave

Valour - with their lives they gave

Pride - that will never fade

We still remember"
