Sword

The sun flashed
Off the blade
Of the sword
In crimson fire
Like foretold blood

The moon glinted
Off the blade
Of the sword
In crystal stars
Like healing rain

The wind whispered
Past the blade
Of the sword
Sighing the tales
Of ancient tears

The main's hands gripped
The strong hilt
Of the sword
Part of the tales
He went to fight

Dance like no one is watching;
Live as if you will die tomorrow;
Love like it will never hurt."

This sounds like it's part of a long ballad...
