Before The Duel

I can't help thinking of tomorrow, now
When I've still got all my full will
To overcome my fear
And makes me feel a real sorrow how
My heart crazy is just I
Ill-beating foreseeing what is near

Lord!
I'll defend my honor
My life is the price
I must throw the dice

Before tomorrow
I feel the sorrow
And in the mirror
I watch the terror
This is my night long and cruel
Before the duel!

Before tomorrow I have to write out
My best lyric poem I have never
Made before
And when I'm walking through
The night about
Inspiration comes to me
To liberate my sore

God!
May not come tomorrow!
If I have to die
My poem's a goodbye
