The Axeman

In his youth he began.
Only a child when he first wielded
His mighty axe.

He became better
He grew older
His fingers worked faster

Always learning,
He craved knowledge.
Always trying to be better.

He joined a Prince of Darkness
And continued his journey to the top
To become one of the greatest.

But this journey was cut short;
By the fires of Hell itself.
He was struck down.

The hero fell,
But his legacy lives on.
Others follow his path,
But no one could ever replace him.
