From beginnings humble as can be
To holding the world on his back
None can dispute his nobility
That he has strength others lack
A world divided, turned to war
Brother turned enemy, friends lost
Yet he stood with a firm core
Willing to pay the highest cost
To bring back peace forevermore
Through fights both spoken and shot
He lead his comrades through
On troubled worlds, both his and not
With the hope of freedom true
Even when his spark was dimmed
And his loss was felt by all
The spirit and will that personified him
Gave those behind the will and gall
To defy evil’s whim
And revive his mighty thrall
Not death, nor loss, nor war, nor pain
Could beset the great one’s spark
His is a legacy that shall remain
A beacon in every fan’s heart
For there is no here of our time
Than the awesomeness of Optimus Prime
